JOJIVINI Tawakedrau of Caubati is the Crest chicken recipe promotion profile for the week.
Mrs Tawakedrau shares with us her favourite Crest chicken with rourou and lolo dish.
She has been using Crest chicken products for more than 18 years and loves cooking it for the whole family.
“I have been married for the past 18 years and since then I have been using Crest chicken at home,” she said.
“The Crest products have been around for many years and it’s been the first choice chicken for many families in Fiji too.
“It has good quality meat (the chicken meat is soft) which makes it easy to prepare, it gives a tastier dish and is affordable for us.
“When I go grocery shopping I spend $60 on Crest chicken products and I buy the whole chicken number 12 and 13.” She says other Crest products she buys include thighs and mixed portions because they are ideal for her family’s meals.
“We not only use these products at home we also use it during special occasions and most of our extended family members prefer buying Crest products for special functions they host,” she said.
