We hear a lot about teamwork in the workplace but little about teamwork at home. We believe it is just as important if not more. We like to cook together, prepare recipes together, as well as taking turns to cook. Apart from the benefit it has of building a stronger relationship and fostering companionship with one another, it is a great way to teach our boys about gender equality. What is better than teaching by example?
We have decided that in the video accompanying this post as well as future ones, we will take turns cooking, to better reflect the situation in our home. We hope that it will encourage more men to get in the kitchen. This is particularly important for Somali youth who need to learn to overcome the cultural bias that discourages them from helping in the kitchen.
We would also like our sisters to understand that it takes time to change these deep-rooted attitudes. We need patience as we slowly move towards a more egalitarian society.
On entend souvent parler de travail d’équipe au travail mais plus rarement du travail d’équipe à la maison. Nous croyons qu’il est tout aussi important sinon plus. Nous aimons cuisiner ensemble, préparer des recettes ensemble, mais aussi cuisiner chacun notre tour. En plus de l’avantage de construire une relation plus solide et d’apprécier la compagnie de chacun, c’est aussi un bon moyen d’apprendre à nos garçons l’égalité des sexes. Quel meilleur moyen que d’enseigner par l’exemple?
Nous avons décidé que dans la vidéo qui accompagne notre post ainsi que pour les suivantes, nous allons cuisiner chacun notre tour, pour mieux refléter la situation dans notre foyer. Nous espérons que cela encouragera plus d’hommes à se mettre à la cuisine. C’est particulièrement important pour les jeunes Somalis qui ont besoin de dépasser les préjugés culturels qui les découragent d’aider en cuisine.
Nous aimerions aussi que nos soeurs sachent qu’il faut du temps pour changer ces vieilles habitudes. Nous avons besoin de patience pendant que nous évoluons doucement vers une société plus égalitaire.

Can I use brown rice if so..same quantity of liquids?
Yes, you can use brown rice. Brown rice requires more water to cook. You need to read the label for the amount of water needed.
Asselamu aleykum
Please show us any brown rice recipe. I have plenty at home
but didn’t like the way I cook (plain) but atleast aromatized. Since it is healthy my family
always ask for it.
Thank you.
Wa’alaikum Assalam Warahmatullahi Wabarakatuh.
God willing, we will post a recipe for brown rice. Thank you for your comments.
