Steps

1

Blend together all the vegetables except half onion.
2

In a pot, pour in 2 cooking spoons of vegetable oil. When it's hot, pour in chopped onions and fry till opaque.
3

Pour in the blended tomatoes and pepper. Season and leave to cook till dry.
4

Pour in your chicken stock(plain water is fine too), check for taste and bring to boil. Ensure your liquid is not too much. I start with about 3 cups of liquid and add a little at a time as needed.
5

When rice is almost cooked and there's no liquid left, turn down heat and cover the pot. I do this to prevent the rice from being soggy.

Basmati does not benefit from jollof burn. Serve
