xawaash.com

There is a website called xawaash.com.
I encourage you to visit it because they show you how traditional Somali dishes are made, and most of their video explain how to make the dishes in both Somali and English. So it is a good opportunity to learn cooking vocabulary. I have been linking some of their videos to this blog. Here are some basic phrases related to cuisine,


Waxaa loo baahanyahay... - What is needed is...
Wuxuu ku filan yahay 8 ilaa 10 qofood - It is sufficient for 8 to 10 people
Ku dar biyaha/caanaha/sonkorta - Add the water/milk/sugar
Waxaad isticmaali kartaa nooca hilibka aad jeceshahay - You can use the type of meat that you prefer
