Cooking good food requires one to be fully present during the process. Food should be given all the attention required. Most people cook in a rush, to finish the process. Sio bora watu washibe. In short food should be tantalizing to the eyes & to the mouth.

Knowing when to add what & how long each ingredient should cook is vital. In short timing is everything. Most people don't even know that for different foods, onions should be cooked differently. Some foods need the onions to brown, others don't.... Tomatoes also need to fully cook to form a paste, most people cook food yenye nyanya unaona ndio hii .....it's a put off kabisa. And when your tomatoes don't cook well, you can never have thick stews.

How to combine ingredients is also another important step. The quantities also matter. Kuna wale wanaweka chakula kitunguu very tiny even peeling is a problem na nyanya moja......yet the food ni ya 4 and above people And you expect good results. Most people wash down all the yumminess with the wrong quantity of water.. Every type of food requires a different quantity of water...

Last thing, most people boil food.... Yaani when making stews, after adding water or broth, they put the flame on high so food starts boiling. Food should simmer (meaning on low heat, bubbling gently) this besides making the stew thick, also enables the flavors to come out and infuse well Try this with your stews and you will understand why your stews are watery and tasteless & someone elses very thick & tasty.
