    Mouna did all the criticizing just to end up serving everyone a garden in a bowl. 😂
  • @moremiaj4786
    As a Nigerian, I would go for number one. The meat, the pepper.... it looked so delectable.
  • @Douksmouna
    Hi guys Mouna’s here. Thank you for watching this episode. I just want to clarify few things. I went to the show thinking they wanted me to make peanut butter stew and that’s why you see a stew instead of soup. I was very confused when I seen other people who brought a normal peanut butter soup. That’s why I was asking too much about them vegetables lol. For those familiar with French African peanut butter soup (Maafe) you guys know it’s heavy and full of vegetables so that’s what I made. And when you say soup it means maafe for us. So I guess it’s different from each country. I wasn’t trying to be mean or rude I was just very confused so I apologize for it. Also I like Abena’s soup better because hers wasn’t really spicy. Kathy’s soup was just too spicy for me to eat. I just couldn’t. That’s just my preference ! Anyways it was nice to be part of it. Thank you for the opportunity Buzzfeed. Don’t forget so many parts were cut, you guys didn’t get to see everything. So be kind🫶🏾 Thank you for all the positives feedbacks✨ I appreciate y’ll💕

    Kathy is so nice. She understands people make it differently and tried to find positive things about each dish and appreciated it even if it’s not how she does it.
  • @pinksands2426
    I really enjoy when the cooks are being kind and having fun with it. Kathy may not have won, but she is one of those pleasant/fair contestants that I would love to see more of.
  • @mindofapisces
    Peanut butter soup is unheard of to me but I’m very interested
  • @afiabelleheart
    Yessss Abena you made all Ghanaians proud today !!!! 🇬🇭👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
  • @MrDollazncents
    Bring the blindfolds back and have them try their own dishes please
  • @sw6951
    As a Sierra Leonean our pepper intake in insane. I’m not surprised 😂. Groundnut soup is one of my favourite soups ❤
  • @mojojohnson8793
    I love how coco butter embraces the diaspora of Africans and there descendants around the world. At the end of the day we are connected we should embrace each other.
  • @thibault973
    The 3rd dish, which actually originated in Mali and is now a staple in all of French speaking West Africa is actually SO good. It can be found at any African restaurant in France. The maroon people in French Guiana, where I am from, have a very similar dish which they brought from Africa during slavery time, it's called Pinda chicken. You should try it, it's that good.
  • @SolaiDanae
    I’m from Surinam 🇸🇷🇸🇷and we have a similar dish like this. We use a special peanut butter from Surinam and coconut milk and seasoning for the soup. You can also add chicken thighs. And the plantains are cooked with the soup.
  • @mis7289
    The hausa (Nigerian) version is thicker and has vegetables (not carrots) so I understand Mouna’s. But we also eat it with ‘rice balls’ like Abena’s. So cool to see the little differences.
  • @PerfectlyVoiceless
    As a proud West African, I am so happy to see our food being represented💜
  • @appaspappa1033
    GROUNDNUT SOUP IS SO GOOD we need more central and west africans on this channel especially 💁🏾‍♀️🇨🇲🫶🏾
  • @ebonyrenee3296
    I love that y’all added the recipe at the end! As long as the contestants are willing, you should always add the recipe! 🎉
  • @jgdiva143
    Ghanaian peanut soup is the best 👌 I've been eating it since I was a baby it's still my favorite. So glad it won.
  • @intodaysepisode...
    Let's all stop and appreciate the gorgeous melanated queens on this competition.
  • I went to Ghana about 10 years ago (I'm a Westerner) and their peanut soup is one of the best dishes I've ever had. I try to recreate it in my own kitchen now...just with a bit less spice 😅😅 So good!
