𝐒𝐦𝐨𝐤𝐢𝐞𝐬, 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐞𝐬 & 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐞𝐝 𝐂𝐚𝐛𝐛𝐚𝐠𝐞

School is almost here.

Before the bags are packed, uniforms folded and the holiday officially comes to an end, why not give the kids one more meal they'll remember? ❤️

And don't worry— no complicated recipe today.

So if you've ever looked at a packet of smokies and asked yourself:

“Sasa smokies zinapikwaje?”

Let's fix that.

🥔𝟏. 𝐌𝐀𝐒𝐇𝐄𝐃 𝐏𝐎𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐄𝐒

Peel your potatoes, cut them into medium-sized pieces and boil them in salted water until fork-tender.

Drain the water completely.

While they're still hot, mash them until smooth.

Add a little butter or margarine and mix well.

Taste for salt.

Simple. Creamy. Ready.

🌭𝟐. 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐌𝐎𝐊𝐈𝐄𝐒

Here's the trick:

Don't chop them. 😉

Heat a little cooking oil in a pan and place the smokies in whole.

Turn them gently as they cook so they develop that beautiful golden-brown, shiny finish.

For extra flavour, make a quick sauce using tomato sauce/ketchup, a little water and your preferred seasoning.

Coat the smokies lightly and keep turning them until the sauce clings to the surface and becomes glossy.

And there you have it.

Whole. Shiny. Mouth-watering.

The kind you pick up and bite into.

Because honestly...

half the fun of eating a smokie is holding it.

🥬 𝟑. 𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐎𝐔𝐑𝐅𝐔𝐋 𝐒𝐓𝐄𝐀𝐌𝐄𝐃 𝐂𝐀𝐁𝐁𝐀𝐆𝐄

Slice your cabbage thinly.

In a sufuria, sauté chopped onions in a little cooking oil.

Add chopped tomatoes or a little tomato paste/sauce and cook until the mixture comes together.

Add the cabbage, season lightly and toss.

Let it cook until tender but not overdone.

Finish with freshly chopped dhania (coriander).

Now you've got colour, aroma and flavour.

🍽️𝐓𝐈𝐌𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐒𝐄𝐑𝐕𝐄

Place a generous scoop of mashed potatoes on the plate.

Add your colourful cabbage beside it.

Then place one whole, beautifully glazed smokie on top or alongside.

And because this is a family treat...

🥤 Add a bottle of Coca-Cola or your family's favourite soda.

Call everyone to the table.

Take a moment to thank God for the food, then...

“Sasa kila mtu ajisaidie.” ❤️

💬 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐊𝐄𝐍𝐃, 𝐓𝐑𝐘 𝐈𝐓.

And if you've been preparing the children for Third Term, let them enjoy one more little holiday memory before school begins.

🎒 𝐅𝐑𝐈𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐌𝐘𝐓𝐇𝐒 & 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐒 | 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐎 𝐒𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐋 𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐎

“Safari ya kesho hupangwa leo.”

Mama Akinyi is finally heading home after a long day of shopping for Third Term.

She is THAT mother.

The kind who doesn't wait for the last weekend.

The kind who hears “school opens next week” and immediately thinks:

“Basi, safari ya kesho hupangwa leo.” 😌

But today, Mama Akinyi isn't feeling particularly victorious.

She's tired.

She's thinking.

She's calculating.

And she's beginning to wonder whether “being prepared” has perhaps gone a little too far. 😅

You see, after spending a good chunk of the money she was given on CBC/CBE materials, stationery and other school requirements, she suddenly remembers something.

Mama Okoth wa Samaki.

Mama Okoth had preserved some Omena for her.

She was supposed to pick them up on her way home.

Now, Mama Akinyi isn't worried that Mama Okoth won't give her the Omena on credit.

No.

What worries her is the explanation.

“Mama Okoth, zile Omena... nitakulipa kesho.”

And Mama Okoth will probably look at her like:

“Wewe unafikiria kwa sababu umefanya shopping ya third term kila mtu amefanya?”** 😂

Because surely, Mama Okoth also has children going to school.

But that's not even the biggest problem.

The biggest problem might be waiting for her at home.

🧥 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐍𝐓

That very morning, Mama Akinyi and Baba Akinyi had a near-quarrel.

Akinyi's school sweater had a torn sleeve.

Baba Akinyi's solution was simple:

“Hiyo sweater bado iko sawa. Mpeleke kwa fundi ashike hiyo mkono.”

Mama Akinyi's response?

“Mtoto wangu hawezi rudi shule na nguo iko na viraka. Nipe pesa ninunue mpya!”

And because Baba Akinyi is somehow a Kikuyu-Luo halfcast, the conversation had already entered that dangerous territory where both sides suddenly have very strong evidence that they are right. 😂

So Mama Akinyi went to Zangu Zangu Uniforms.

Problem.

The available sweaters were either slightly smaller or slightly bigger than Akinyi.

Now, you might think she'd look elsewhere.

Absolutely not.

Zangu Zangu is Zangu Zangu.

Rain or shine.

That's her uniform supplier.

Then she made another interesting decision.

She chose the smaller sweater.

For Three reasons.

One: She wasn't going to buy from another shop.

Two: Akinyi is a Gen-Z girl, and Mama Akinyi wasn't about to have her walking around in a 'baggy' sweater looking like she borrowed it from her older sister whom she doesn't have. A slightly tighter one?

“At least itakaa smart.”

Three: And perhaps most importantly...

Mama Akinyi had been given money for school shopping.

And somewhere along the way, “I have money for school shopping” had quietly become “I must spend all the money allocated for school shopping.”

And now?

She's standing outside her own gate.

Carrying school supplies.

Thinking about Mama Okoth's Omena.

Thinking about Baba Akinyi.

Thinking about that sweater.

And suddenly wondering whether “prepared for Third Term” is the same thing as “bought everything I could possibly buy.”

But wait.

I have just received some very interesting information.

Apparently, Mama Akinyi has deployed some highly sophisticated Luotative Language Tactics — commonly known as LLT. 😂

And she is now opening the gate...

Very slowly.

Eyes active.

Ears active.

Every sense activated.

She's checking for any sign of Baba Akinyi.

So let me go closer and find out what happens.

I'll be right back to tell you.

But while I investigate, you can for sure avoid this kind of situation. 😄
That is why The Delibus Team prepared the following tips for you.

🧐 𝐅𝐑𝐈𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐌𝐘𝐓𝐇𝐒 & 𝐅𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐒

𝐌𝐘𝐓𝐇 𝟏: “CBC means I should buy every material people tell me about.”

FACT: Not necessarily.

CBC/CBE learning activities can involve practical and creative materials, but requirements can vary according to the grade, learning activity and school.

Yarn?
Plasticine?
Knitting sticks?
Drawing materials?

They may be required for particular activities—but don't assume every learner needs everything.

👉 Check the actual school/teacher requirement first.

𝐌𝐘𝐓𝐇 𝟐: “If something is damaged, I must replace it.”

FACT: Not always.

Before replacing something, ask:

Can it be repaired?

A torn sweater sleeve doesn't automatically mean a new sweater.

A school bag with a broken zip might need a tailor.

A slightly worn item may still have plenty of useful life.

Sometimes repairing is the smarter purchase.

𝐌𝐘𝐓𝐇 𝟑: “If I have been given money for school shopping, I should spend all of it."

FACT: No.

This one may be the most important.

Money allocated for school preparation doesn't become a target that must be exhausted.

First ask:

What does my child actually need?

Then:

What do we already have?

Then:

What can be repaired or reused?

Then:

What needs to be bought now?

And finally:

What money should remain protected for the unexpected?

Because Third Term is not the only thing that can happen between today and the next payday. If You Know, You Know.

🎒𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐒𝐌𝐀𝐑𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐖𝐀𝐘 𝐓𝐎 𝐏𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐄

Being prepared doesn't mean buying the most.

It means:

Knowing what is needed.

Knowing what you already have.

Knowing what can wait.

And knowing what your budget can comfortably handle.

That's how you prepare for tomorrow without creating a problem for today.

💬 𝐘𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐍

Have you ever gone shopping for school and discovered one item you completely forgot?😂

Or perhaps your child's school has given you a shopping requirement that made you ask:

“Hii inapatikana wapi?”

Share it in the comments. 👇

And if you have a challenging school shopping list, send it to us on WhatsApp at:

📲 0745 684888

We'll help you source the items where possible.

The help to source is free; where an applicable sourcing or delivery fee is involved, we'll let you know beforehand.

🎒 Third Term is coming. Let's prepare wisely—not hurriedly.

16/08/2026

🎒 𝐁𝐀𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐎 𝐒𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐋 𝐄𝐃𝐈𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍 | 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐘 𝐅𝐎𝐑 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐑𝐃 𝐓𝐄𝐑𝐌?

School opens in a few days...

And suddenly, on Sunday evening:

"Mum, tuliambiwa tukifungua tupeleke kuku..." 😅

Then comes the "Uuuuu, ati kuku! Tunapata kuku wapi hii saa hii na unaenda kesho asubuhi?"

To make matters worse, the one item nobody remembered after all the rush becomes the most important item that was on the list. 😂

Let's avoid that this term.

If you prefer preparing early rather than doing a last-minute Back-To-School Sprint, here's a simple way to organise your thinking.

🧠 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐂𝐊 𝐁𝐄𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐁𝐔𝐘

Before adding anything to the shopping basket, ask:

1️⃣ Does my child actually need it?

2️⃣ Was it specifically requested by the school/teacher?

3️⃣ Do we already have it at home?

4️⃣ Does the existing one need replacing, or can it still be used?

5️⃣ Does it need to be bought now, or can it wait?

These five questions can save you from buying things simply because "it's back-to-school time."

Now let's sort the possible needs into groups.

🧼 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐂𝐀𝐑𝐄

Check what your child is running low on:

* Bathing soap
* Toothpaste
* Toothbrush
* Toilet paper
* Petroleum jelly/body lotion
* Hair-care products
* Sanitary products, where applicable
* Handkerchiefs
* Any school-required personal-care items

Tip: Check the cupboard before buying. That unopened toothpaste may still be hiding somewhere. 😄

✏️ 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐘

Don't automatically replace everything.

First check what the learner already has.

Possible items include:

* Exercise books
* Pens
* Pencils
* Erasers
* Sharpeners
* Ruler
* Mathematical set
* Coloured pencils
* Crayons
* Drawing books
* Folders/files
* Glue
* Manila paper

Buy what is needed—not what simply looks new.

🎨𝐂𝐁𝐂/𝐂𝐁𝐄, 𝐏𝐑𝐎𝐉𝐄𝐂𝐓 & 𝐒𝐂𝐇𝐎𝐎𝐋-𝐒𝐏𝐄𝐂𝐈𝐅𝐈𝐂 𝐑𝐄𝐐𝐔𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐒

This is where parents should be particularly careful.

CBC/CBE learning activities can involve practical and creative materials, but requirements vary by grade, learning activity and school.

Depending on what your child's teacher or school has actually requested, you may encounter things such as:

* Drawing materials
* Paints and brushes
* Plasticine/modeling materials
* Yarn
* Scissors
* Art and craft materials
* Project materials
* Knitting materials, including knitting needles/sticks where specifically required

KICD curriculum materials list resources such as drawing materials and knitting yarn for particular learning activities, and its curriculum designs include practical areas such as knitting.

But don't buy a whole "CBC package" just because someone says every CBC learner needs it.

👉 Check the actual requirement from your child's school or teacher first.

KICD maintains official curriculum designs and approved curriculum/complementary materials, and has also cautioned against unnecessarily burdening parents with compulsory material lists.

📚 𝐁𝐄𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐄 𝐘𝐎𝐔 𝐁𝐔𝐘 — 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐂𝐊 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐀𝐒𝐒𝐈𝐆𝐍𝐌𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐒

This one is easy to forget.

Before the new term begins, ask:

"Are all the holiday assignments done?"

Not *almost* done. 😄

Check:

☑️ What has already been completed?

☑️ What is still pending?

☑️ What needs printing, drawing, writing or practical work?

☑️ Does the learner need any materials to finish it?

☑️ Are there assignments that need to be submitted when school reopens?

It is much better to discover that missing manila paper today than to discover it when your child is already standing at the school gate.

And don't forget 👕𝐔𝐍𝐈𝐅𝐎𝐑𝐌 & 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐈𝐓𝐄𝐌𝐒

Before buying new ones, inspect what came home last term.

* School shirts/blouses
* Trousers/skirts
* Sweater
* Socks
* School shoes
* Sportswear
* Belt/tie, where applicable
* School bag
* Water bottle

Repair what can be repaired. Replace what genuinely needs replacing.

Your wallet will appreciate the difference. 😄

🔍𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐂𝐊

Before you leave for the shops, divide your list into three:

🟢 BUY NOW — needed before school opens.

🟡 BUY LATER — needed eventually, but not urgently.

🔵 ALREADY HAVE — cross it off.

That little bit of organisation can turn a stressful last-minute shopping trip into a much calmer one.

💬𝐖𝐄 𝐖𝐀𝐍𝐓 𝐓𝐎 𝐇𝐄𝐋𝐏

Does your child's school have a challenging or unusual shopping requirement this term?

Maybe it's an item you've never seen in your usual shops.

📲Send the shopping list to our WhatsApp: 0745 684888

We'll help you find/source the items.

We won't charge you for helping to source them. Where an item requires an applicable delivery or sourcing fee, we'll let you know beforehand.

💰 𝐓𝐌𝐓 — 𝐓𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐲 𝐓𝐢𝐩𝐬
UNDERSTAND YOUR MONEY

You got paid.

Suddenly, everything looks affordable. 😂

That thing you've been wishing?
You can finally buy it.

The bigger packet?
"Why not? It's cheaper in bulk."

A few snacks?
"I deserve this."

Then somehow, two weeks later...or even days...

"Sijui pesa ilienda wapi!" 😅

Here's something I am personally learning after severall previous fails when it comes to managing finances:

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐥𝐝 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐞 𝐏𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐧.

Ask yourself:

🗓️ How often do I get paid?

☐ Daily
☐ Weekly
☐ Monthly
☐ Irregularly / sometimes late

This matters more than many people realize.

If you earn weekly, spending most of your money on one big shopping trip may leave you struggling before the next payday.

If you earn monthly, you need to think about how today's shopping will affect you three or four weeks from now.

If your income is irregular, keeping some money accessible for the unexpected becomes even more important.

And if you earn daily, be careful of one trap:

"Let me just spend all of this today because I'll still earn again tomorrow."

Tomorrow isn't always guaranteed.

𝐁𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐘𝐨𝐮 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐩, 𝐀𝐬𝐤 𝟑 𝐐𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬

1️⃣ When will I receive money again?

Know your next payday before deciding how much you can comfortably spend today.

2️⃣ What must this money cover before then?

Food.
Rent.
Transport.
Electricity.
Soap and other household essentials.

Don't forget the small things. They have a habit of becoming big things when added together. 😄

3️⃣ What money should I protect before shopping?

Don't wait to see what remains at the end.

If possible, set aside a small amount for savings or emergencies first, then plan your spending around what's left.

💡 THE BIG IDEA?

Don't shop according to how much money you have today.

Shop according to how long that money needs to last.

Someone with KSh 10,000 that must last a month needs a different shopping strategy from someone who receives KSh 2,500 every week.

Neither person is necessarily better off.

They simply need to shop differently.

But there is one thing that may be common in both. Where they shop; definately nowhere else other than delibus.netlify.app

💬 LET'S TALK

How often do you receive your income?

👇 Daily, weekly, monthly, or irregularly?

And has your income pattern ever influenced the way you shop?

Share your experience below. Someone else might learn from it.

Next Tuesday, we'll talk about one of the biggest enemies of a good shopping plan: our own shopping habits. 😄

🛒 𝐒𝐇𝐎𝐏𝐏𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐂𝐇𝐄𝐂𝐊𝐋𝐈𝐒𝐓

𝐁𝐞𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐅𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐬 𝐘𝐨𝐮... 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐩𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐋𝐢𝐬𝐭. 🛒

Today we're helping a bachelor make KSh 3,000 of groceries survive 30 days.

Imagine:

💰 Salary — KSh 10,000
🏠 Rent — KSh 3,000
💡 Electricity — KSh 100
🛒 Groceries — KSh 3,000

That leaves KSh 3,900 for everything else. Please, remember to save or invest something. As Mr. Mugo used to say, "Akiba Haiozi", and "Haba na Haba Hujaza Kibaba".

So when you walk into the supermarket, don't let your eyes do the shopping before your brain does. 😂

Here's how we'd prioritise the KSh 3,000.

🥇 𝐋𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐋 𝟏 — 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐄𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐍𝐓𝐈𝐀𝐋𝐒

These come first.

☐ Maize flour
☐ Rice
☐ Green lentils / other affordable legumes
☐ Cooking oil
☐ Salt
☐ Coffee ☕

Its August my guys, and for a bachelor, coffee isn't a luxury, if you know you know😂

It's breakfast, it's a morning routine, it's his secret defence strategy against harsh weather conditions and sometimes it's the only thing standing between him and an unnecessarily difficult Monday. 😂

🥈 𝐋𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐋 𝟐 — 𝐌𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐎𝐎𝐃 𝐋𝐀𝐒𝐓

Now add foods that give you variety.

☐ Potatoes
☐ Eggs
☐ Bread
☐ Onions
☐ Tomatoes
☐ Seasonal vegetables
☐ Bananas or other affordable fruit
☐ Milk, if your budget allows

💡 Think in combinations.

Rice + lentils.

Ugali + vegetables/Eggs.

Potatoes + Rice.

Bread + coffee.

You don't need a different expensive meal every day.

You need ingredients that can work together in different ways.

🥉 𝐋𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐋 𝟑 — 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐒𝐄𝐇𝐎𝐋𝐃 𝐒𝐓𝐔𝐅𝐅

The things you don't think about until they're finished.

☐ Washing soap
☐ Bathing soap
☐ Toothpaste
☐ Toilet paper
☐ Matchboxes / lighter
☐ Any other household essential you're running low on

💡 Check the house first.

Hakuna zawadi for buying another packet of washing soap when there's already one hiding behind the bucket. 😂

⭐ 𝐋𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐋 𝟒 — 𝐍𝐈𝐂𝐄 𝐓𝐎 𝐇𝐀𝐕𝐄

Only after the important things are covered.

☐ Margarine
☐ Biscuits
☐ Soft drinks
☐ Snacks
☐ Other treats

Nothing wrong with enjoying yourself.

Ama heri kuinama Monday lakini Weekend upige sherehe 😄?

💰 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝟑𝟎-𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐓𝐄𝐒𝐓

Before putting something in your basket, ask:

"Three weeks from now, Will I still be happy I bought this?"

If the answer is no...

Maybe it can wait.

A good shopping list isn't about buying everything.

It's about making sure the money you have buys the things that matter most.

☕ 𝐒𝐔𝐍𝐃𝐀𝐘 𝐐𝐔𝐄𝐒𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐍

You're a bachelor with KSh 3,000 to spend on groceries for the next 30 days.

👇 What are the FIRST 5 things you would put in your basket?

Let's compare lists.

And please don't say "coffee, coffee, coffee..." 😂

Or in full - Fried Capon with Potato-Lentil Stew & Fresh Maize

It's August in Molo. Fresh potatoes are coming from the farms, early maize is finding its way into homes, and the kids are around for the holidays.

So this Saturday, let's put together a simple, hearty dinner for the whole family.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝟓

And whether you have one burner, two burners, or a cooker plus a charcoal jiko, you can make this work.

The secret is simply getting the order right.

🍗 𝐖𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐘𝐨𝐮'𝐥𝐥 𝐍𝐞𝐞𝐝

For the Fried Capon 🍗

• 1 medium capon, cut into pieces
• 1–2 onions
• 2–3 tomatoes
• 2 cloves garlic
• 1 Royco chicken or beef cube
• Cooking oil
• Salt

For the Potato-Lentil Stew 🥔

• About 1.5 kg potatoes
• 1½ cups green lentils
• 1 onion
• 2 tomatoes
• 1 Royco cube
• Cooking oil
• Salt

For the Fresh Maize 🌽

• 5 fresh maize cobs
• Water
• Salt, if preferred

👩‍🍳𝐋𝐞𝐭'𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤
1️⃣ 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥𝐬

Rinse the green lentils and put them on to boil.

⏱️ Pressure cooker: about 15 minutes
⏱️ Normal sufuria: about 30 minutes, or until tender.

This is your first job because the lentils can cook while you prepare everything else.

While they're cooking:

🔪 Chop the onions, tomatoes and garlic.

🥔 Peel and cut the potatoes.

🌽 Remove the maize husks and clean the cobs.

🍗 Season and prepare the capon.

By the time the lentils are ready, your other ingredients should be waiting.

2️⃣ 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐧

Drain the cooked lentils and put them aside.

Now cook the capon in a sufuria with the chopped onions, garlic, tomatoes, Royco, salt and a little water.

Cover and let it cook until the capon is tender and completely cooked.

If you have two burners:
You can start preparing the potato stew on the second burner while the capon cooks.

If you have one burner:
No problem. Use this cooking time to finish preparing the potatoes, lentils and maize. Once the capon is ready, you'll simply move on to the next pot.

If you have a charcoal jiko:
This is a good time to light it. Once it's ready, the maize can take over there while you continue using your cooker.

3️⃣ 𝐅𝐫𝐲 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐩𝐨𝐧 🍗

Once the capon is cooked and the liquid has reduced, remove the pieces.

Heat a little cooking oil in a pan and fry the capon until nicely browned and golden on the outside.

You don't need to deep-fry it—just give it a good finish.

Set the fried capon aside.

4️⃣ 𝐌𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐏𝐨𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐨-𝐋𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐥 𝐒𝐭𝐞𝐰 🥔

Heat a little cooking oil in your sufuria.

Add the onions and cook until soft.

Add the tomatoes and let them cook down.

Add the potatoes, Royco and salt, then add enough water to cook the potatoes.

Cover and let them cook until almost tender.

Now add your pre-boiled green lentils.

Stir gently and allow everything to simmer together until the potatoes are completely tender and the stew has thickened.

💡 The trick is pre-boiling the lentils.

You do that right at the beginning, so when you reach this stage, you're simply combining them with the potatoes instead of waiting for everything to cook from scratch.

5️⃣ 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐡 𝐌𝐚𝐢𝐳𝐞 🌽

Using a charcoal jiko?
Boil the maize while the potato and lentil stew is cooking on the cooker.

Using two cooker burners?
Boil the maize on the second burner.

Only one burner?
Don't worry. Cook the maize after the stew is finished. While it boils, you can set the table and clean up.

Boil until the maize is tender, then drain.

🍽️ 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐯𝐞 𝐈𝐭 𝐇𝐨𝐭

Bring the potato & green lentil stew to the table.

Add your golden fried capon.

Serve the fresh maize alongside it.

And that's dinner. ❤️

A warm, filling family meal made with simple ingredients and some of the best produce the season has to offer.

And with the kids home for August, there's no reason the preparation has to be left to one person.

Someone can peel the potatoes.

Someone else can clean the maize.

Another person can set the table.

Even the little ones can help with simple, safe jobs while an adult handles the cooking.

Good food tastes even better when everyone has a hand in getting it to the table. ❤️

💰 TMT #001 – What's the Smartest KSh 20 You Can Spend on Breakfast?

For many families, breakfast is often a simple cup of tea and a few slices of bread. It's quick, familiar, and fits the budget.

But here's a simple money tip...

Sometimes, it's not about spending more—it's about spending smarter.

With as little as KSh 20, you can give your breakfast a little boost.

🥚 One egg – A simple addition that can make your breakfast more filling.

🍌 One banana – An affordable way to add fruit to your morning.

🥜 A spoonful of peanut butter – A small spread can make your bread more satisfying and flavorful.

Small changes like these can help you get *more value* from the breakfast you're already preparing, without completely changing your budget.

💡 Tuesday Money Tip: Plan your breakfast for the week before shopping. Knowing what you'll eat each morning helps you buy only what you need and reduces unnecessary spending.

👇 Now it's your turn!

If you had only KSh 20 to improve your breakfast, what would you buy?

Or better yet, *share your favorite budget-friendly breakfast tip* in the comments. Your idea might help another family start their day a little better.

🛒 Whether it's bread, milk, eggs, fruit, cereals, or spreads, Delibus is here to make shopping for your breakfast essentials simple and convenient. Visit delibus.netlify.app for more...

⏰"HONESTLY, I don't have time for breakfast."

It's something many of us say.

The alarm rings...
You prepare for work.
You rush to school.
You catch a matatu.
Before you know it, it's already lunchtime.

But here's something worth thinking about...

Skipping breakfast isn't always about being too busy.

Sometimes it's because breakfast feels like too much work.

Cooking.
Washing dishes.
Deciding what to eat.

So many people simply choose to leave home hungry.

The good news?

Breakfast doesn't always have to be a full meal.

Even something simple like a glass of milk, a banana, a slice of bread with peanut butter, or a boiled egg can help you get your morning started.

💡 A helpful tip: Plan your breakfast according to the day ahead.

🥾 Heavy day? If your day involves physical work, travelling long distances, or hours before your next meal, consider a more filling breakfast.

💼 Moderate day? If you'll be working in an office, attending classes, or doing routine activities, a balanced breakfast may be all you need.

🌅 Light day? If you'll be at home or your first meal won't be far away, a lighter breakfast could be enough if it suits you.

The best breakfast isn't the most expensive one.

It's the one that fits your lifestyle and that you'll actually eat.

Ever remembered you needed something... at the worst possible time?

You're in the middle of work.

Everything is going well.

Then it hits you...

"There's no cooking oil at home."

Or maybe it's sugar.

Toilet paper.

Flour.

Soap.

From that moment, your mind quietly starts making calculations.

"Will the shop still be open?"

"Will they have what I need?"

"Will I get there before the evening rush?"

It seems like a small thing, but it follows you for the rest of the day.

Njeri used to experience the same thing.

Now, the moment she remembers she needs something, she simply places her Delibus order in a few minutes.

Then she gets back to what she was doing.

Her items are carefully shopped, packaged, and delivered to wherever she chooses—whether that's her workplace or her home.

By the time her workday is over, shopping is already behind her.

No rushing.

No wondering.

No carrying one more worry through the day.

Just one less thing on her mind.

Imagine how much lighter your day would feel if shopping took care of itself!
