Jollof or Fried Rice?


Fried Rice
INGREDIENTS:
3 Measuring cups of rice
Salt
Curry
Thyme
1 Tsp Turmeric
Maggie Chicken or Goya
2 Cooking spoon of mixed vegetable
2 Cooking spoon of butter
Large shrimps (the more the wealthier it looks & tastes)
Crabmeat (quantity is left to you)
Chicken broth

DIRECTIONS:
1. Bring out the mixed veg and let it defrost for a while.
2. Clean the rice.
3. Add the teaspoon of turmeric, the chicken broth (add enough to taste but not too much so it wouldn’t be too salty), and add a little water to the raw rice then boil everything together.
4. Once the rice is soft but NOT mushy set it aside.
5. Get a new big pot, put the butter in it and let it heat up.
6. When the butter is hot add the mixed veg first because they take a little longer to cook.
7. The mixed veg is cooked when the green beans is soft.
8. Next add the crab meat and the shrimps and mix them together.
9. Add the curry, thyme, Maggie cube to the mix that is heating up and stir it.
10. When you feel the blend is fried but not burnt add the boiled rice one spoon at a time.
11. With each spoon of rice you add make sure you stir everything together so the rice is stirred in with the fried mixture.
12. After all the rice has been stirred in completely then the fried rice is ready to be served.

For best results, serve with roast chicken. Enjoy!

I like mine with a little bit of a twist asian style, . . . .

ever try adding a can of makerel and some spring onions! its really nice!

the party jollof I have had a parties has some kidney in it. Yuck! i can't eat internals!!! I have tried and I just cant,

When you feel the blend is fried but not burnt add the boiled rice

thank you, Yetibaby.

I don't make my fried the normal convetional way but it comes out just as right.
I boil the veggies for about 5 minutes (except green beans-they take forever to soften), then i take out the vegs and put the rice, green beans, thyme, lots of curry (for color), salt, seasoning and diced chill in the pot and cook till its almost soft. Then i return the vegs, add fried shrimps and/or kidney or any other crazy ingredient i can lay my hands on, cook everything together till the rice is done and voila! party fried rice is ready.
Party jollof rice is another story for me. Sometimes i get it right, sometimes i don't. maybe its the firewood factor.
