HOW I COOK MY PASTA BY @niglys8

Greetings steemians!

Hope you all are doing good? At the sight of this amazing contest I was elated because I'm a big fan of pasta😋
I really appreciate our Italian chef here@steemskillshare community for organizing this wonderful contest

I'm a Nigerian and because the kind of meals we eat here takes quite a long time to prepare before it can be consumed, spaghetti pasta is gradually becoming our everyday meal. Infact, in Nigeria spaghetti pasta is called a "fast food" because it takes one less than 45 minutes to get it prepared and it is also loved and eaten by children and adults.

In Nigeria, spaghetti pasta can be prepared in two different ways:

• The white pasta and stew method which I love most 😋 and will show how it's been prepared below

• The jollof method which looks like this in the picture below

The different kinds of spaghetti pasta I showed above is also been prepared with the same ingredients depending on how much you wanna spend for the meal. Yes, some even go further to adding green peas,carrots and liver meat to it.

INGREDIENTS

These are the ingredients I use to cook my spaghetti pasta and stew:

• 1 pack of spaghetti pasta
• Groundnut oil
• One unboiled egg
• Fresh pepper and tomatoes
• Onions
• One cube of maggi
• Gino curry seasoning
• Salt

MY PREPARATION PROCEDURE

• I put my spaghetti inside a pot of water by breaking them into small pieces

• I parboiled for 5 minutes
• And washed in a sieve while allowing the water to strain

• I added a little water in a pot and added my already parboiled pasta back into the pot

• I added a teaspoon of salt
• And after the water dried up, I brought down my pot of white spaghetti pasta from the cooker.

STEW PREPARATION

• I sliced my onions

• Washed my fresh tomatoes and pepper and blended into a fine paste with my manual blender

• I added my groundnut oil into my pot and immediately added my sliced onions and blended tomatoes to heat a bit

• I added my salt,maggi and gino curry seasoning to taste
• And finally, added my unboiled egg

And my plate of spaghetti pasta is ready to be served😋

I enjoy eating my spaghetti pasta just like this (White spaghetti pasta and stew) because it tastes more yummy than the spaghetti jollof pasta.
I hope you try it out and enjoy too!

Regards❤️
