I’ve never had a Kenyan or African dish. Followed this recipe complete just off the way the food looks. The food came out perfect and I’m more than impressed. Subscribed.
Thank you so much for trying the recipe and am glad you enjoyed it. Please try more of my other recipes on the channel. Asante sana { Thank you very much}
Sasa Wainaina, I saw this video last night and I made it today. You’ve made me a heroine in my household with this channel. My husband gets compliments at work for all the delicious meals he takes to work.
This was by far the best pilau. Thank you for the simple ingredients and for simplifying these recipes so much that my 10 year old can make them.
Keep going strong, we are here to support and cheer you on.
look so dèlicous
Thank you!!
(Larry's wife) My late mother, from low country South Carolina, taught me to make rice pulau as a teen. However. the recipe was basic with just onions and bell pepper. Cooking with spices was lost through the years of bondage. Even though my great grandfather became a rice farmer after Emancipation, there was no access to using these ingredients except for making fruit cake and sweet potato pies. I am so happy that there is now a way to enhance meals. Our diet still consists of the same foods, but without the spices. But I am slowing adapting how I season. thanks so much for the seasoning lessons and different ways to prepare meals. No more bland!
Glad to hear this!
The perfect beef pilau. Very detailed explanation, I sure can try this now. Thanks for sharing
Thank you for your comment, appreciate it. I feel giving is important as it helps to follow the recipe.
I tried this and it was absolutely yum. It was my first time making it and i didnt have all the spices . I had to pre boil my meat because our beef tends to be a bit tough and i didn't want to risk it. I liked it so much i went out and bought all the spices to make the masala...thank you.
Ooh pilau...its a perfect comfort food for me...delicious😋😋

My favourite food
Hi chef Wainaina, I am a new subscriber...your voice is very soothing reminds me of my favourite Kenyan law professor in a South African university in 2005...sigh, I was so young, bright eyed and bushy tailed then...🤭😊 New subscriber, trying to get my Kikuyu husband to like pilau, my favourite meal...but alas all spices are banned at the house and the jaluo wife laments.😂😂😂
I love the recipe but my mother is whispering for yonder dice those onions fine.
Looks delicious although Mombasa we don't use soy sause and dania
Wow so nice wainaina can you give names ya spices 👍
