WATCH: Woman makes her children eat ‘smiley’ for the first time

Internet users react to a mother of seven feeding her children ‘smiley’ for the first time.

TikTok creator @kamophacane gained massive popularity from internet users when she introduced her children to one of South Africa’s traditional cuisines.

In the video, the woman cooks a meal for her blended family, later giving them a taste. According to the food hub, What’s For Dinner, sheep’s head also known as skopo or ‘smiley’ is a delicacy that is usually enjoyed after New Year’s, adding that, when preparing it you should add spices to get a better taste.

The above-mentioned food hub notes that before cooking your skopo you should clean it using cool water to remove any dirt and cut the thick fur on it.
