Making stew here in my country is more of like a sunday tradition for most families.
Most times its quit common here as sundays are known for just cooking rice and eating too..
Over the years, its some how like a regular tradition for some families to see eating rice cooked in various ways on sundays as a norm too .
*My family wasn't left out because i have always known that almost every sunday is a rice day .
So its quit common for people to now tag it as ..
I'm coming to your place to eat sunday rice oo😂
In as much as people do eat rice on other normal days , the sunday rice stuff is quit very common too because alot of families usually opt for it ,even though they get to skip eating it other days..
Well in my house i was told to cook because it seems to be the easiest food i enjoy cooking Especially when its rice and stew (tomato sauce).
Rice can be cooked in various ways,
Theres banga rice(palm oil rice),
Jollof rice,
Coconut rice,
Fried rice,
Tomato sauce (stew rice).
Etc
Well the one i just want to highlight about cooking is the stew rice..
Its very easy to cook and doesnt require much time too ..
/First after cooking your white rice.
Ingredient to get in making the stew includes,
Tomato
Pepper,
Crayfish,
Maggi cubes,
Salt,
Onions
Vegetable oil
Then spices like (optional thou)
Tyme , curry,
Scent leaves,
Ginger spice /garlic spice.
Etc/
So first is to blend or slice the tomato and pepper if its fresh tomatoes and pepper including the onions.
You then blend the crayfish too ..
Then add all of them in a pot add your vegetable cooking oil ,allow it fry for some mins,
Then you can add your beef meat, chicken, fish, etc if you cooked any.
After that you can add your maggie , salt and the rest spice too ,
And taste it to be sure the salt wont be too much and also the maggi ,
If you have enough crayfish you can just use it without adding much maggi.
After some few minutes you can just add water from the meat and stir..
And thats the end of your cooking,.allow it boil a little and that's it ..
You can then serve yourself by adding the stew on the white rice as a sauce.
Looks so 👍
Thanks alot
