Jollof rice is a dominant name among African dishes. Any country can prepare their own kind of jollof rice using ingredients best known to their environment, but the Nigerian Jollof rice is one unique dish that is always talked of by anyone from any part of the world who happens to eat it. 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.

Had to host my cousin and her friends today so glad cos they have to believe my party jollof rice.😎

Jollof rice

good and easy to make

Needed a way to use leftover rice, threw it together with some chicken and potatoes and thus this fantastic meal was born!

I was thinking to make it with a brown rice. But my husband called me and told me that he was on his way home. That’s mean I have only about 10-15 minutes to prepare and make a dinner. That’s not enough time to cook brown rice in the short time.So instead of using brown rice, I replaced it with cauliflower rice. That makes it so much easier. This dish is very easy to make and also #oilfree and #lowcarbEasy simple dish, good for lunch or dinner idea, and super healthy.

This dish, which kind of falls somewhere between paella and jambalaya, was a happy accident. It came about a few nights ago, when I repurposed some leftover tomato pilaf (I've been all about pilaf lately). Rather than simply nuking the rice, I dumped it into a pan and sprinkled on some homemade fajita spice. The result was amazing, way beyond what I expected. The rice was fluffy, soft but my mushy, super-flavourful, and even formed a bit of oh-so-irresistible socarrat (the crusty, crunchy bottom of a paella that everyone fights over). I decided to repeat the dish, but with a few extra ingredients. Once again, it turned out fantastic. The only niggle was that the socarrat wasn't quite as prominent (as you can see in the picture). Dinner was running late and I had to get food on the table... what's a cook to do? Nobody seemed to mind, anyway. They were too busy devouring delicious rice.

I was looking for a "leftover ham" recipe, but kept on seeing that most requires to be baked. So I decided to make my own version based on the info I found online and ingredients I had at home.

When I noticed that you don't have to wash polished rice if you use it to make risotto, I tried to make some rice flour and it was really convenient. If you make a lot and store it, it's not a pain.The profile photo (under the katakuriko) shows some finely made rice flour.Rough flour makes for a good texture. If you're concerned, you can use wash-less rice or pre-wash and dry the rice completely before you make it into flour. Recipe by mini

Hi everyone, I have been chatting with a few of my blogger friends who still have not yet seen any Spring weather and some have mentioned that in their areas it’s snowing!!! I know in a way how they must be feeling because last year around this time it was raining non stop here. So, the weather we have been having lately is odd, but it’s April already so I am sending to all my bloggers friends who are still waiting for Spring “the Spring Vibes” . Hope this works!! 🙂This recipe is a quick version of stir-fry that can be put together in less than 20 minutes, that’s if you’ve in a rush and would like to make something delicious and yet quickly because you just got back from a busy day at work and are starving. I had already washed and drained the shrimps so that was done a day in advance, but I was missing a few of the veggies and the quality of the fresh produce was not exactly well, let’s just say they just looked strange so I decided to buy frozen veggies.To be honest the frozen veggie pack saved me a lot of time in the kitchen because I was out most of the day, and when I got back it would have taken me just about an hour to cut, chop, dice, and fry. So, in a way a meal in 20 minutes is not half bad. 🙂

Good when you need to add some flavour to your meal :chef
