Ur welcome live.the meat in the oven with rice sounds great...here i would normally make soup instead of salad with onions,tomatoes,greans an potatoes with spices.

HATARI-swahili word that means DANGER.Anyway...on the topic...to me romance is more than the physical...a guy(my husband) should show appreciation,concern an respect to me an vice versa...all the three signal love...to me i.e

Now....gals....i know some of u love to cook....so i thought we would share some recipes....men can join to:applause:





Now since we all come from different places...with unique cuisine.....i will start with a favorite dish i love an wish is easy to cook...



we call it...Githeri which is basically a combination of Dry Maize & Beans....one can opt to use the young maize...thats not dried...easier for those who have sensitive teeth:ROFL:



Ingredients (4 servings)



� pound dried red beans

1 pound dried maize (corn)

3 medium onions, chopped

4 medium tomatoes,chopped

1 tbsp vegetable oil

Salt



Cover the red beans and maize with water and soak overnight. Drain.

Cover again with water, add salt to taste and boil for 2� hours or until the maize and beans are soft.

Drain and set aside.



Fry the onions in the vegetable oil until golden brown.

Mix in the tomatoes an let it cook till soft.

Mix in the maize and beans and simmer for 5 minutes before serving.



Now...different people will add more different ingredients...like i would add chopped potatoes after the tomatoes are cooked....plus pour in some greens...like kale..spinash...right after the dish is about to cook fully...this will prevent the veggies from overcookin:dunce:



Serve hot with some home made juice...



Enjoy:applause:



Plus....some curry powder...or spices....
