My boyfriend assisted, and we cooked it at night after having a long Saturday... all worked out.

And as usual, we loved every grain!I'm yet to taste something better.

Diff methods nd ingredients can be used nd the end result is always Whoaw.. You can never go wrong with Jollof Rice 😁😋😋

Jollof, or jollof rice, is a rice dish from West Africa. The dish is typically made with long-grain rice, tomatoes, onions, spices, vegetables and meat in a single pot, although its ingredients and preparation methods vary across different regions.This was my attempt at it.

Jollof Rice story originated in Senegal. Now this dish is enjoyed inmany west African Countries - in fact over 450 million people in Africa enjoy this rice on a regular basis. In Tamil Nadu India similar dish is known as Thakkali Sadam. In India they use more complex spices.

Many years ago I worked with an ex royal marine who had traveled the world and we discovered that we had a common interest in food and he told me that on board ship the chef would save whatever meat or bacon or sausage was left over each day and on a friday would use it up with rice and make a what he called a nasigoren, I made this many times over the years and later discovered it was based on a nasi goreng which the chef probably came across in Indonesia, so here is my version and in tribute to scouse my old colleague from my time with the navy.

The choice of rice is very important when you are cooking Ghee Rice. The traditional way is to use "Jeerakasala" Rice. But it's not available everywhere, so I have used Basmati Rice for this recipe. You can soak the rice for 20 minutes prior to cooking. Some rice are sticky. This is one problem we face while cooking ghee rice, since the rice is not drained. It's still an easy recipe to try. You can fry cashew & raisins in ghee separately & garnish with it.Taste best with chicken curry & raita.

Fried rice is one of my list of quick and easiest food I could make in my busy time. And yeah, today I made this fried rice for our lunch. So here we go! Vegetables fried rice. But if you are not vegetarian, you can add any meat, chicken, or shrimp as your desired.

My jollof is not a regular jollof it's one of a kind 🤗🤗🤗

Rice is to the Middle East what pasta is to Italy. While rice is a staple in Asian countries, there it is typically served plain; the flavors coming from the sauces for the vegetables, meat or legumes. Iraqi and particularly Iranian rice dishes, on the other hand, are known for their flavours, colours and, especially, their presentation. The way we serve them is something of a ritual. Having more than one rice dish at a meal is not unusual. Sometimes we even make a rice crust on the bottom of a dish so that, when served turned upside down, it looks like a cake.It took me a long time to get used to making a smaller quantity of rice for dinner. When I was growing up, my mother would serve everyone a big mound of rice topped with whatever stew she had cooked that day. We’d eat the rice with a spoon or by scooping it up with a piece of hubus, or flatbread. I guarantee you that in any traditional Iranian home you’ll find a huge pot of rice on the stove.The Iranian and Iraqi method of preparing rice: partially cooking it, draining it, then returning it to the pot with fried onion and a touch of water and continuing to cook it very slowly. This method results in delicious dry, almost crispy, rice, but it is time-consuming and the rice loses some of its nutritional value.Here’s my way:

I'm very picky about my Spanish rice and this is a wonderful no fail recipe that is delicious!

It's a well known Nigerian delicacy and very easy to cook

Oh my God, believe you, rice will kill me for real. Anyway I just love it.

For an omelette, whether wrapped in eggs or with creamy scrambled eggs, the chicken rice must be delicious.The origin of this recipeWhen my children were young, they often said grandma's omelette was the best and asked my mother to make it. I asked my mother to teach me this family favorite recipe over 20 years ago, and I've preserved it here.

This rice is, hands down, the BEST stir fried rice I have ever made. The rice gods were with me today and I’m making sure I have this little jewel in my vault. We had it with chicken kabobs. All ingredients are approximate and you can add or take away but the vinegar is the key to the flavor.

Rice is quite popular in our country. We can prepare rice in various ways. Today, I've made fried rice with lots of vegetables for you.

It took me a while but I finally perfected it for my family. I hope everyone enjoys it as much as we do. :chef
