Habari! Nimekutumia message Makadara. Nimekupatia website yaitwa alhidaaya ambao utazipata hizo recipe zote ambao unazihitaji.
I know this website is totally useless for the rest of you seeing as it's entirely in Swahili, alhidaaya is the website and this is what mkate wa sinia looks like (it is a rice based cake thing with a texture a bit like a crumpet. It's rather hard to describe and vibibi looks like. It's like a pikelet. Sort of. Made once again with rice and coconut milk. Both of them are yeasted too. Gosh I miss my mum. She makes the best vibibi.
Makadara, when you make the vibibi, try and make a coconut sauce to eat with them*. It's incredible. Just cook some coconut milk with sugar and ccrushed cardamom (iliki) until it's really thick. If you have any of that "rose" essence (not rose water, that super fake stuff by Maimun or whoever, you should be able to get it at Asian food stores) then add a couple of drops of it but you don't need to. My mum layers the vibibi with the syrup to serve while nice and warm. If you make loads of vibibi, they freeze really well and then you can defrost and reheat them by steaming them and they taste just like fresh. You can do this with mkate wa sinia too. And if you're after a recipe for mahamri, viazi vya rojo, kuku wakupaka, na tango la nazi, zote zimo kwenye hii forum. Oops...english...all these recipes are already on the forum.
*this coconut sauce is just as scrummy served with pancakes and stuff like that. |
