BOILING THE CRAB: Heat your skillet on high heat. Add 3 cups of Sprite soda and 1 cup of water. Add the ginger slices followed by the crabs. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Cover with the lid and let it boil. (Don’t worry if you start to see foam in the boiling water; it’s normal.)

When you see the top shell becomes orange in color, it’s time to flip.
Splash some liquid on the crabs to remove the foam residue then flip them one by one. Cover with the lid again and boil for another 5-10 minutes. Then, remove the crabs from the skillet and set aside.

DIPPING SAUCE: Crush the garlic and put it in a bowl, removing its skin. Add around 3 tablespoons of white vinegar. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and a red chili if you want. ©homebasedchef

Flake Crispy Chicken
What inspired me and who inspired me was my mum. Her wish on the day I prepared this was to eat a well cooked chicken so she asked me to do it. I said to myself enough of the cooking, roasting, grilled etc. I thought about this, so I took my chicken recipe to another level, in the process of this the name came up immediately. I called it "FLAKE CRISPY CHICKEN". The taste was breath taking, crispy, yummy and delicious. Thanks mum for inspiring me#chickendishrecipecontest

How to make Simple Jollof Rice
There are many different ways to cook Jollof Rice. It is a dish made with rice, tomatoes, tomato paste, onions, scotch bonnet, bell peppers aka tatashe, salt, and bay leaf and vegetable oil. If it doesn't have the above mentioned ingredients, then it's not true Jollof 😀. The perfect Nigeria Jollof is done over fire wood; where the smokey flavor is infused into the Rice.

Steak kebab
Steak kebab is one of my favorite experiment cooking with steak. The slight vinegar tenders the steak a little, the garlic gives it an awesome natural aroma, the oil moistens it, the few mix of spices and seasonings gives it a very unique taste. I like to use ingredients that any other person can find available in their locality.I love the way the juice of the tomatoes gives the meat a juicy nature and the onions with the green peppers gives it a wonderful smell that makes you call for more.You can try this now and tell others where you learned from, its my pleasure.

Korean barbecue
I learned how to make Korean barbecue over 40 years ago before it was popular in the USA next to my business was a donut shop at 7 AM The Korean owner he’s sitting in the back room cooking dinner on a hot plate I would join him several days a week before I open my business. One time he cook Korean barbecue and I asked him for the recipe Which I’m going to share with you which is pretty simple however Even 40 years ago I felt I could make this recipe better by adding four other elements to it. Sorry I’m not going to give you that recipe. Any Korean person who has tasted my barbecue recipe tells me it’s the best they’ve ever had. Don’t worry you’ll still enjoy the basic Korean barbecue
