It’s crazy how similar Cook Island Māori is to Te Reo. I understood every word she was saying ❤️ I gotta try these during lockdown!

[@Lerie2010able]

The donuts there are delicious and when I go over I am always asked by my daughter in law to bring her a dozen from Papa Ben's Store - they lived in Rarotonga and I used to buy them in the morning when I took the kids to school - the best on the island. I take in KFC and bring back donut's!

Lol because there were subtitles😂

Because the first Maori were Cook Islanders ! Like i can understand many Filipino words because i speak Chamorro. But we are ALL Austronesian and have many similarities because we have the same origin 💚

[@axis19752]

@@bnoxz The subtitles would be a reference only, as Cook Island maori and NZ maori are two different dialects, yet subtle in the deviations.

I've noticed that no matter what island we come from, we all have the same grandma.

If I don't have wholemeal flour, could i just substitute another cup of flour?

[@doorwhisperer]

You could .... but what about your figure? :D

[@marissaridenour6531]

How long do i have to leave it for too rise

[@nahzewilliams5912]

2 years

[@RaidenWarbound]

Usually 1-2.5 hours but here they said 3-4 minutes… 🤔 the process is different than usual tho. Maybe a warm towel speeds up the process cos you need a warm room for yeast to rise. Also, the flour to yeast ratio is dependant too.

Girl my ass

[@doorwhisperer]

someone's keen

[@anaru1]

I'm just trying the recipe now. Has anyone done this as my dough is really wet. Appreciate any help. 🙂

[@Rautz.]

Are you meaning it is stil runny after you leave mix to set/rise?? This part depends on room temperature. So of it's cold then gonna take longer to rise.
Instead of basing on time just wait for it to double in height.
This could take a long time if you're in russia lol.

[@maryvitolio1725]

Same as mine

[@torekaolomalii2187]

Same as mine.What am I doing wrong?

[@jessmani2720]

@@torekaolomalii2187 I ended up adding more flour lol I hope it works haha

[@RaidenWarbound]

Add flour if it’s too wet. Like a couple of tablespoons now and then til it’s somewhat dry-ish.

[@shadowking6284]

It rised but the dough was still very wet

[@stephaniei9127]

Tepaeru Tekeu Same!

[@anaru1]

Ummm... Mine dough was like a pancake mix. Wet as the ocean. I added 2 extra cups of flour and still wet 🙄

[@jeannaandrews]

Mine was aswell I don’t think they mentioned that you’ll have to knead it, with a few cups of flour till it’s a firm but wet dough, then put it back in the bowl to rise again

[@jeannaandrews]

I hope this helps 😊
