✅ What is the name of the dish that you have made this week? And why did you choose this dish?

The meal I made last week was rice and stew. Rice is a universal food eaten by almost every one around the globe. It is usually prepared on Sunday and also during parties. The good thing about it is that it can be prepared in different ways. It can be cooked jollof, fried, coconut and concoction rice.
