*Ladies Professional chef+ How to Prepare Local Rice*

in Steem For Ladies2 years ago (edited)

Hello everyone. It's good to be here to share my knowledge of how to fix rice locally with you all. @okere-blessing thanks for inviting me for the contest. Rice is of course one food everybody eats, at least once in a while. While most people know this as local rice, others know it as MTN rice, because it has a yellow like colour which comes from the oil.

Local rice

As usual, I'd like to begin with the ingredients needed for the preparations.

Ingredients

  1. Rice.
  2. Palm oil
  3. Crayfish
  4. Pepper
  5. Salt
  6. Maggi
  7. Onions
  8. Pumpkin leaves and scent leaves (optional)
  9. Carrot(optional)
  10. Fish

To start, I have to parboil the rice, sift and wash it.

Second step is to immediately put back the rice on fire after washing and draining the water from it. Here, I'm cooking just two cups of rice. So I'll add just two cups of water to cook the rice.
My ingredients are already in place, so I'll put everything, but the oil, and stir it.

I'll leave for about 7minutes to cook before seeing my fish to it. Again, I'll cover the pot and leave it to really cook for a few minutes. When the water begins to dry out, I put a little quantity of oil and my fish and cover it.
The next step is to make sure that the water if dry, and put your vegetables in it. This is because I don't want my vegetables to be really cooked,I liked it fresh.
After putting my vegetables, I bring down my pot.
My local rice is ready now.
You may wish you garnish it with whatever you like.
You may choose to garnish it with fresh onions, banana, fresh tomatoes it any fruits it vegetables if your choice.

Since I don't really like it myself, I chose to garnish mine with boiled carrots.

And this gives me my local rice and carrots.
