This ordinary street corner cooking
@chinodo, That’s not street corner cooking, that’s not dog meat.
What I am saying is that this is untraveled cooking the is common in places like Soweto market. There is no value add. Nothing new
You are very right. Nothing new here.
At Cook for 8 to 10 hrs (Like vimbombo). Malaiti kuno yadula! Maybe pa nkhuni or mbaula.
Even nkhuni or mbaula, 10hrs is just too much, by then kids would have gone to sleep and you end up eating alone.
I wonder what kind of meals you guys have. There’s a difference between cooking and boiling!!
