Pilau with beef is a traditional and iconic dish in Kenyan cuisine. It’s often served during special occasions and celebrations such as weddings, birthdays, and holidays. But we have found it to make for an amazing dinner any time of the week.
There is much to celebrate at our program in Kenya. Last year alone, we distributed over 126,000 meals to local children in need. These meals are keeping children in school, restoring families, and spreading the gospel. It’s amazing what God can do with a simple meal.
Making this dish might not be such a life-changing experience for you, but it will be an opportunity to try some new flavors, experience Kenyan culture with your family, and could open up some great dinner table conversations.
We hope you enjoy this delicious dish and that it connects you in a deeper way with our extended Kenyan family. If you’d like to learn more about what our Christ-centered and holistic children’s program is doing in Kenya, you can do so here.

Abdul Fahad (who goes by Fahad) lives with his parents and four sisters in a two bedroom mud house with a thatch roof. They have no access to electricity but have potable drinking water through Create Hope. There is no latrine and the village residents fetch water from a local dam until it dries up and then travel long distances to find more.
Fahad’s family was Muslim but through the love and influence of Create Hope, Fahad and his parents have accepted Christ. Both of his parents are unemployed and have no reliable source of income. His mother is disabled and cannot walk or do anything for herself. His father sometimes does small scale farming to provide for the family but not on a regular basis, as he owns no land. Create Hope helps provide food for Fahad and his family.
