SEC | S13-W6 - “My Christmas recipe.” fried rice, chicken and salad

Hello friends, we are in the last week of season 13.

The steemit-ironchef comes up with an interesting topic that I said to my self that I have to participate.

Christmas is around the corner, so we decided to plan early on what recipe I will be cooking this Christmas, so after alot of thinking I decided to go for fried rice, chicken and salad.

In my family we love cooking this food during Christmas season.
Before I continue I will love to invite my friends , @okere-blessing, @bossj23 @eliany

There are some ingredients I use in cooking this meal.
I didn't plan to spend too much on this recipe but because of the high cost of price in the market we have to eat this Christmas no matter what.

Even when I try low cost, the price was still high.

Step1

What I did was to boil water and when the water started boiling, I add my rice the allow it to boil for some minutes then I bring it down I wash it with cool water. After washing it, I keep it aside.

step 2

I took my time and prepare all the ingredients I am going to use in cooking my fried rice, I didn't want to rush anything and I didn't want the rice to get burnt.

So when I finish preparing I season my chicken and and put in on fire, why because I will be using the chicken stock to cook the rice.

When the chicken was done I brought it down, drain out the stock from the chicken then use it and cook my fried rice, I added a little water to the parboiled rice and then I add my seasoning cubes, blended ginger, pepper, garlic, tumeric and I allowed it to Cook for some minutes, and when I checked, the water has dry all, I then added carrots, green beans, green pepper, and I brought it down.

At this point my fried rice is ready for consumption.

When I was done with this section, I put my frying pan on the gas, pour my vegetable oil on it and when the oil was hot I start frying the chicken until it turns brown in colour.

the salad preparation

When I was cooking my rice, I started preparing my salad.

Ingredients	price in naira	price in steem
Cabbage	300 NGN	1.15 steem
Green beans	200 NGN	0.76 steem
Carrot	200 NGN	0.76 steem
Irish potatoes	200 NGN	0.76 steem
Macaroni pasta	700 NGN	0.76 steem
Whippy mayonnaise 800 NGN	3.0 steem
Total	2400 NGN	9.2 steem

So the steps I use in PREPARING the salad are.

I carefully slice the cabbage into small particles, cube the carrots and the irish potatoes. After that I remove a little quantity of the macaroni pasta and I add with the Irish potatoes and I boil them for just a minute and I drain out the water, add some cool water to it.

When I was done, I mix the ingredients together, add a little salt and I carefully wash it. Then I take a little portion that I will be able to finish, I added Whippy mayonnaise cream to it.

I dish out my food add my salad and the two eggs and I began to deal with my meal.

I so much enjoy my Christmas recipe.
