Nothing wrong with cooking, I was 10 when I started hunting and trapping birds during my tahriib in Tanzania , I was an illegal alien in a foreign country , no Somali would dare look at me , I was a dibjir or jokora (Swahili for hooligan).
But thanks to my nomadic skills I've learnt from my rural life in Somalia, I already knew how to get clean water from the ground by digging or grabbing roots to extract water. It paid off.
I gathered two branches of sticks ,I would use my hands to rub the sticks and voila it makes fire , I roasted the shimbir , I gotta admit it was burnt but I wasn't hungry for the night. I've learnt small small things during my survival , I was never dependant on anyone. The Somalis would give me strange looks , waxaan waa afrikaan ,
they weren't feeding me so I didn't care.
I learnt to fish in Mozambique's river and Malawian kids would join me.
I occasionally like Braai BBQ or Somali restaurants when I hangout with the homies.
I don't have time to cook everyday since I travel from city to townships , I mostly eat at vendors.
But once at home I make quick decent meals with the right ingredients .
Indian xawaash and Indonesian spices are also essential for seasonings , I would never cook without either these two .
Somalis percieve men that cook negatively it's a stereotype that is so common.
every female related thread you come in politically correct. You like the guy with the smilies fr.
