I preboil maize,once it's cooked,I put potatoes on top and drizzle some salt.On the side,I boil 'kahurura'-not pumpkin leaves but in the same family of pumpkin leaves.We call it 'kahurura' in Gikuyu.,Once the leaves are cooked,I blend.I then mash the potatoes and maize mixture and finally pour the blended leaves onto the potato mix and mash untill the mix is consistently green.I then separately kaanga kitunguu and pour over the mukimo and mix...Your recipe sounds interesting and I will definitely try it.
Wololo...the Kikuyu in me is rioting while watching this recipe ...I was taught to boil maize first,add potatoes when maize is almost done, add your kahurura in,once the kahurura (pumpkin leaves) is cooked,put in a blender and blend well..when the potatoes are ready ,add your kahurura and mash...PS..make sure you don't put more water than necessary . That means,by the time the mukimo is ready,you don't need to pour any water out.. In a separate sufuria,I fry onions(preferably the green ones) then add my mukimo and stir... There are many ways to kill a rat though
I rub my pumpkin leaves (kahurura) with salt while still raw and crush them ,then boil them together with potatoes ,add my pre boiled maize when potatoes are almost done, i mash them together ,fry green onions kando with oil or margarine pour in the mukimo mix well and serve
Well done dear, am going to cook this today. Learning from you Milly chebby. Thanks for sharing this beautiful recipe. I always go to Kenyan restaurant here in London because of this. They call it Kinyegi😂😂😂 i don't know how to spell it 😂😂. A new friend here watching from the UK
I didn't know this method najua the one you boil everything without onions then fry the mokish later with onions....learnt kitu 😋😋 one of my favourite dishes
This is a must try recipe @Milly you are the best and those sufurias are so cute😍😍for us we first cook the leaves for a few minutes let them cool for a while then blend them
This is modern cooking indeed, how technology has eased work...I never tried this but i will. Back home my mum used to mix githeri (mixture of beans & maize), then potatoes, then kahurura simultaneously in a POT(if u knw u knw, the AFRICAN pot). . .then fly on separate sufuria... Rumours has it food cooked from The Pot used to be more sweet...
Wow, a new way of making mukimo Milly. Very impressive. Clearly there are so many ways of doing the same thing. Glad that I watched. Mine is mukimo loaded which includes beans, raw bananas and pumpkin.
Waoo mashaa Allah amazing nice I will try this method too as for me I boil everything first together including unripe bananas n beans or any kind of cereals then lastly nakaanga baada yakuziponda
Geez, I've never seen mukimo made this way!! Amazing, gotta try it. It must be very delicious. The traditional way of making mukimo is very boring as it has to be fried with onions to be tasty. Your mukimo style makes it ready to be enjoyed right away. Good job!
Thank you Milly. I looove Mukimo and i was very excited to try out this recipe. Ilitokelezea vizuri sana. Now a die hard fan. Will try the matoke in peanut sauce next! You make them look so easy. I love the ordinary kitchen! Plus i love your spirit mama. Warm bubbly na roho safi sana. I'm Now a part of the notification gang gang 🙂 Keep shining and soaring mama Milla!
1.Fry onions 2. Put potatoes(( with ndizi or pumpkins-optional )) 3.When the potatoes are half cooked add githeri and unblended pumpkin leaves and leave to simmer Nb/dont stir 4. Mash once the water drys... 5. Serve with favorite stew
I first fry the potatoes , add a cup of water , then add the pumpkin leaves , add the githeri and salt then cover the pot .. Wait for for roughly 30 mins but you can check if the potatoes are ready by checking using a mwiko... If there no water left start to mush ... #Original Kikuyu way
@@lydiarichu8421yea, its a matter of adjusting. Niko Massachusetts and in summer lots of Africans grow maize and greens so thats when we buy and stock up.
Therokia waru, ikira bebe nduge. Ciehakuhi kuhia ikira mahuti ma marege. Kerora mai, ikira shube. Kima na muiko munene ta wa cucu uria wa gicagi. Karaga gituguru kia mahuti, kiahia iterera mukimoini. Ira ciana na muthuri waku irio ni ciahea.😂😂 Like if you understand 👆🏃🏃
Cant wait to watch...i have a friend from uganda who looks exactly like you .....she also sends regards.Her name is Grace m love you can check her out on fb if u dont mind
Am the opposite of you. Growing up I was that one kid who says, sikulagi mokimo, so I never ate it everytime my Mom fixed it. Mom always told me to try it but I always said no. Little did I know what I had been missing all my life when one day I tried it out and it was the best thing I had ever eaten in my life. Very tasty, too bad I was older by then so never got to enjoy it and don`t ever fix it in my house so wish I enjoyed it growing up.LOL
Lol, my mum, a proud Gikuyu, refused to use short cut to original mukimo. However, as time continue to innovate, new concepts are allowed. So not hating the new ways at all....
Honestly this is NOT mukimo, it's not near being called mukimo, it's not just how it look but the process... mukimo ni kusmash everything with a mwiko. I;m not hating your content but research on how mukimo is prepared.
@@MillyChebby i'm not hating Milly, I'm just saying, everyone is doing this method while don't you be different today and teach them, for me I cant post as it's not my area, you can do it better, take my comment +ve... i loved your buggers , ain't a hater trust me.
I think I agree with you. You boil the pumpkin leaves seperatly then blend them and put it on top of the 90% cooked potatoes and after the potatoes are fully cooked then you kima
Just concerned haven't you thought of using/ buying pressure cooker which conserves gas Kwanza during this period,I boiled the maize and potatoes in 15 mins with my pressure cooker,saves time
If you're in embu Kenya, download homedrop on playstore....they give same services including supermarket, 🍷, alcohol, 🍕 🍕,baby shop etc...ni vitu mob.... 😝
Annita Baibe. Seriously why do you have to bring sijui tribe and how you like your mukimo. Do your own you tube video and leave Milli alone. Let's love one another and embrace other people.
