"CSS Contest -Share Your Home-Cooked Meal | Nigerian jellof Rice ".

Greetings ma'am @aaliarubab and all the steemians in the house. I'm happy to be here today participating in this cooking contest organized here in this community. I'm a lover of food so when I saw the contest I couldn't resist participating and also learning from others who will share their delicious recipes with us.

From my kitchen, I'm going to prepare one of the simplest and most delicious meals here in Nigeria called Nigeria jellof rice. The meal has been in existence since before now and most people usually prepare it in their various homes even though everyone has his way of cooking rice in the end we come out with the same result called jellof rice.

Jellof rice serves as a very source of energy to the body system also it is very rich in manganese and high in carbs, it has a lot of nutrients that will help in keeping our immune system strong also it is very easy to digest.

Now let's get started with the cooking, before I share the steps with you all let me list out all the ingredients which I used in preparing my jello rice.

Step 1: first I washed my pepper onions and set them aside, after which I sliced the onions, then I grand small poison of the onions mixed with the paper.

Step2: Now I place a pot on the fire, added one cup of water into the hot and allowed it to boil then I added my cup of rice into the hot and allowed it to parboil for some minutes.

step3: When the rice was parboiled I pour it into a clean bowl then I sieved it out into a clean bowl.

Step4: I now place my pot back on fire, added my vegetable oil into it, then allowed it to heat after which I added my sachets of tomatoes and fry for some seconds then I added my granded pepper mixed with the onions mixture and fry it for 2min.

After which I added one cup of water alongside my Maggi cubes and salt. I allowed the mixture to boil.

Step 5: When it was boiled I added my boiled rice to the mixture, I stir it then I cover the pot, and allowed the rice to cook well.

Step 6: lastly I added my sliced onion and allow it to steam for just a few seconds.

Below is my delicious Nigeria jellof rice.
