Steps To Prepare Jollof rice(Party Rice)
It is a lovely weekend over here and as a foodie, I will like to share on how to prepare the Nigerian jollof rice, over here we call it party rice because that is what is commonly served in most of our parties and that is what most people struggle for, because Nigerians are really good at it.
As a person, I like my jollof rice served hot and a little peppery and of course delicious. This is a way to prepare the rice.
Ingredients: Rice, tomatoes paste, fresh tomatoes, fresh pepper, curry, thyme, salt, Maggi cube,onions, vegetable oil, water,bay leaves(optional), stock water.
Preparation:
(i) Parboil your rice and set aside.
(ii) Prepare a stew sauce by by blending your tomatoes with your pepper and frying it in an empty pan.
(iii) Place your empty pot on the gas and make sure it is dried, add your sliced onions and fry for a while,thereafter add your prepared stew sauce.
(iv) Add the tomatoes paste and let it boil for some minutes.
(v) Add your stock, and seasoning such as: salt, maggi, curry,thyme and any other one of your taste. Leave to boil.
(vi) Add your rice into the pot and make sure it is at the same level with the water.
(vii) When the liquid in the rice is almost dried up, you can add your bay leaf and leave for some minutes. Your rice can now be served hot with chicken, meat or fish just the way you like it.
I hope you give it a trial and enjoy it fresh and hot.
