Oven roasted njugu
Here's the full video of how to roast njugu in the oven.
Chai na Njugu: A Love Story 🇰🇪❤️
My late grandma taught me the art of roasting njugu (peanuts) in her cozy, grass-thatched hut kitchen. The secret? A hot pan, just the right amount of salt, and a lot of love. In Kenya, chai and njugu go together like Nairobi traffic and matatus—inevitable and iconic!
A quick fix? Yes. Delicious? Oh, absolutely. And for our men... well, let’s just say njugu are a powerful snack 😉.
Whether in the village or city, nothing beats the simple joy of salty peanuts with a hot cup of tea. But tell me, what’s your go-to breakfast in the village versus the city? Do you go all out or keep it simple? Drop a photo of your breakfast plate—I’m curious! 🫶
Let’s celebrate the little things that make Kenyan mornings special.
This is a space for all things food, culture, and cozy Kenyan vibes.
Pika na Stella official launch.
How do I even begin to express my gratitude? My people, my tribe, my circle—they showed up, dressed up, and celebrated with me. We laughed, we shared, we ate, we made memories.
How can I possibly repay such kindness?
