JALLOF RICE/ NASI TOMATO

[[ Jallof rice/ NASI TOMATO]]

Malaysian people should know that Jallofrice is Nasi Tomato.. The preparation is slightly different because every food has it own secret recipe and special herbs.. 

Jallofrice recipe discussed here is the classic Nigerian Jollof Rice. This is the most popular Nigerian rice recipe. This is why you will always see it in gathering or party. It is quite easy to prepare if you follow the simple steps. Every food has it's own secret recipe 

The following are other variations of Jollof Rice:

Coconut Rice

Mixed Vegetable Jollof Rice

Rice and Beans

Ingredients

2 cigar cups | 500g (1.1 lbs) long grain white rice

Tomato Stew 500 mls

Chicken (whole chicken, drumsticks or chicken breast)

Pepper and salt (to taste)

2 medium onions

3 Knorr cubes

2 teaspoons thyme

Before you cook Jollof Rice

Prepare the tomato stew. It is advisable to prepare tomato stew before hand and keep in the freezer. This is so that whenever you want to cook any jollof rice related dish, it is just a matter of adding it to your cooking.

If you will use whole chicken then wash and cut it into pieces. Cook with the thyme, Knorr cubes and 2 bulbs of onions (chopped). The cooking time depends on the type of chicken. The rooster or cockerel cooks much faster than the hen but the hen is definitely tastier. When done, grill it in an oven. You may also fry it. This is to give it a golden look which is more presentable especially if you have guests for dinner.

Parboil the rice using the method detailed in parboiling rice for cooking jollof rice. Wash the parboiled rice and put in a sieve to drain.

Cooking Directions

Pour the chicken stock and the tomato stew into a sizeable pot and leave to boil.

Add the drained parboiled rice, salt and pepper to taste. The water level should be the same level of the rice. This is to ensure that all the water dries up by the time the rice is cooked.

Cover the pot and leave to cook on low to medium heat. This way the rice does not burn before the water dries up.

If you parboiled the rice as described at parboiling rice for cooking jollof rice, the rice should be done by the time the water is dry. Taste to confirm. If not, you will need to add more water and reduce the heat to prevent burning. Keep cooking till done.

Serve with fried plantain, Moi Moi, or coleslaw.

You can spice up this recipe by adding 2 well known vegetables to arrive at what we refer to as Mixed Vegetables Jollof Rice.

Have fun cooking !!

Pepper Soup is a broth-like savory, spicy  Soup made with either assorted meat/fish or poultry and some ''hot'' local spices.This is one of the sought after Nigerian Soups and is usually named  based on the type of meat (protein)used in cooking it.

This recipe below, is the  Assorted Cow Meat Pepper soup, but you can also use the same recipe for Goat meat pepper soup

Assorted Cow Meat Pepper soup

*500 g Assorted Cow(tripe, heart, liver&muscle)...cut into small pieces
