NIGERIAN JOLLOF

Hi guys!

So, after staying away from my kitchen for a while because of exams, we decided  to bond again. I really worked with all the ingredients I had already. This jollof rice was quite impromptu but the ones unplanned are usually the best aren't they?

This is how I made my jollof rice.

Ingredients;
- rice : one and a half cups
- chicken
- tined tomatoes : I used one medium salsa tin
- onions : one and a half
- pepper : I used dry Cameroon pepper
- seasoning cubes : 3
- garlic and ginger : fresh, to taste
- salt : to taste
- curry and thyme : 2 teaspoons each
- vegetable oil : 2 cooking spoons

Procedure;
- wash chicken and cook with chopped garlic, ginger, some salt, pepper and 1 seasoning cube.

- once soft, fry till golden brown. Set aside.

- wash rice and had to boiling water. Add salt and half a seasoning cube. Boil till almost soft.

- open tined tomato, put paste in a bowl and add some water till you get a smooth consistency.

- in a pot add oil, sliced onions ( just one)
Add tomato and water mix, add spices,  chicken stock and let to fry for a bit.

- add little cooking spoons of rice and stir in mixture. Repeat  till your sauce to rice ratio looks just right.

- add a little water and remaining  sliced onions. Cover and turn off heat after a minute.

IT'S DONE!

serve with fried chicken and a cold drink. Lol.
