Me and My Mother

To,

Dear Foodie Rafikis

Karibuni to Rashida’s Bohra Flavours, a culinary haven where each recipe unveils a cherished family secret steeped in Bohra cuisine, Swahili food, and the rich tapestry of East African culinary traditions. I’m Munira, the passionate curator dedicated to sharing the extraordinary journey of preserving family traditions and celebrating the flavours that define my heritage. This blog is more than a repository of traditional recipes; it’s a heartfelt tribute to my mother, Rashida, whose name encapsulates “wisdom,” “righteousness,” and “compassion.”.

About Me And My Mother:

Born in the spice-filled markets of Zanzibar and Dar es Salaam and later embracing the coastal allure of Mombasa through marriage, my mother’s culinary journey became a vibrant fusion of Bohra tradition and the diverse influences of East Africa. Every carefully curated recipe on Rashida’s Bohra Flavours echoes the authentic essence of Bohra cuisine and Swahili food, passed down through generations. Whether it’s the aromatic spices of Zanzibar or the coastal freshness of Mombasa, each dish narrates a story of a life well lived and a legacy carried forward.

 

If you look at what you have in life, you’ll always have more. If you look at what you don’t have in life, you’ll never have enough.
