Thank you Suzy, I am seriously considering doing batch cooking because of you. For the pilau, I still buy the whole spices and then I grind them myself. It gives off such a strong flavour that you only need to use much less than the store bought ground spice.

Hi Suzy, quick tip on pilau you need to get those onions brown and brown your meat before boiling it. I personally find the Sunset pilau masala to have a better flavour. Hope my tips help you in future no need for gravy browning

Have you tried lentil bolognese? NYT has a recipe. Lentils added to your mine meat can change the texture a bit but will stretch your meat too.

Suzy the fish was wet when you fried it,try sprinkling it wiz lil salt then air dry ,it should not be wet when you come to fry it,or either still frozen,put them on a tray to air dry for like 30 mins to 40 mins, trust me it will work

For the mukimo next time blend also your peas you will have a very vibrant green colour works wonders even if you don't have the pumpkin leaves, otherwise great video Suzy ❤

Hi Suzy, thank you for this video. Where can I get the glass storage containers?

The fish should be coated with flour and fish seasoning before frying ..

My goodness, cooking all that food the day before travel is amazing. Please what size was the pot used for the pillau? Agree always brown the meat first for all dishes separately. Seems the fish might have been in the heat too long before purchase (not stored properly) or not too fresh. Safe travels.

For the fish to cook well, you have to let the oil heat up for some time. to be super hot . that is why the fish fell apart. My mom corrected me way back

Just a tip, The natural brown color of the pilau is achieved by browning the onions... I have noticed you just sweat your onions. With this method, you don't need to add anything for the color but be careful not to unguza the onions. Also wanted to ask.... How do you store your vegetables n salads without them losing their crunch and becoming rubbery or drab?

@suzyshomestead

Thanks for the tips Ednah! I'll do that next time! For the salads, I keep them without dressing in the fridge, and add dressing on the day we are eating. Also, I don't add lettuce until we are ready to eat. I've done a video on how to store vegetables. Please check it out. It has great tips for storing all other vegetables.

Before you deep fry, make sure the fish has dripped water completely. Put salt in the pan too. The fish gets sticky because it's wet.

Strange for the fish to fall apart while being deep fried? Yes, the fish could be stale or a strange type? But, love the way you prep meals❤

Suzy sorry for the fish possible reasons why your fish is breaking are 1.The oil is not hot enough 2. The fish is not dry enough 3. It may not be very fresh 4.You may have turned it too fast before crisping up well....pole Also try dusting tge fish with a little wheat flour before deepfrying so that it doesn't stick especially when its not so dry.....then again doing it on a jiko does majic.....but its edible just make a nice coconut sauce and enjoy......🥰

My dear Suzie. Pilau color is purely purely from onions. First of all, for all that pilau you needed about 15 big onions - the more the merrier, 2nd, the onions have to brown to just almost burning BUT should not burn ( because it will be bitter) Otherwise, you are my super woman model.....
