My cooking experiences are very diverse. Some dishes end up being good, bad, burned, 2 salty, 2 soft,etc. Cooking is always an experiment for me!! |

I ws forced to learn cooking when I ws in Primary 2. My mom ws working on night shifts, from 6pm to 6am and our househelp would go out and leave my kid sister and I alone so I would make supper. When my dad gets home he would find his food on the table (Either burnt, with too much salt or stew with too much water) But he would eat it and encourage me. After a few more practices I could cook anything to perfection. I am the best cook now ![]() |

I love cooking. Would love to know how to cook more dishes. It's usually a wonderful experience for me but i believe we all have our bad cooking days. Last week i prepared a pot of ogbono soup thank God it was a small pot. It turned out watery ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Question, is it true nothing fried should go into ogbono soup? ![]() But i have my share of nice experiences like when i am making fried rice ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() |

although, for me i love cookinf right from my childhood because i was left with my dad and my younger ones when i was 5years old so i was forced to learn how to cook, i leanrt how to cook from my grandma and anytime she is cooking i will sit very close to her in the kitchen assisting her for one thing or the other so that she can give me meat or a piece of fish that was how i learnt how to cook, cooking is part of my hobbies i can stay in the kitchen cooking for people to eat it makes me happy seeing people eating my food, but am hoppin to go for catering school to learn other continental dishes because i have plan of opening a big restaurant ib the nearest future. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

I love love loveeeeeeee to coooook! It gets berra everytime. The best advice I think when it comes to cooking, is marinade in moderation. Not everyone's taste buds are the same. ! my favourite things to cook are: Fish pepper soup!! Suya Jollof rice Chicken Okra soup Efo Egusi. I cook others but not often as I don't eat them much. I am a sucker for Serious African hot hot pepper! ![]() |

cooking has always been one of my fave thins to do. i grew up watchin gordon ramsay, nigella lawson etc. im quite adventurous in the kitchen. i throw thins in the pot, sumtimes it turns out good, other times, but whichever ways, i make sure i eat woteva ive made. that way, il never make the same mistakes again. lol. made my first pot of j-rice today! (dont ask y please). so exciting. again, i just followed my instincts and it turned out great. been braggin to my sisters all day!! it didnt even get burnt! wow!fried rice is quite simple. for me, i recently started counting calories, so mine is never really "fried" like naija fried rice, but here goes: sorry, i cant give u quantities cos i just chuck thins in as i wish! like all thins in my life, my cooking is simple and stress-free 1. mixed veg (i use frozen from sainsburys cos im lazy as hell, wish i had the time to sit and chop carrots dem dem) 2. spring onions 3. white onions and garlic 4. oil (preferably olive oil) 5. soy sauce 6. pepper (scotch bonnet or rodo) just cos i luv pepper, im sure u cud do away with it if u wanted to 7. maggi (i use chicken and crayfish), u can use the normal one, star, no? 8. shrimps ( like i said, i count calories, so my diet consists of seafood, seafood and more seafood, lol, but i kinda like the taste of shrimps with veg and rice anyway) 9. yeah, rice too and salt to taste 10. chicken stock ( i dont use this cos i feel its unecessary) p.s i dont do all the naijan curry thyme etc. fried rice is not to b yellow. the off white discolouration (if u choose) is due to the soy sauce only!!!! learnt that in secondary scl, changed my life forever! so, chop the spring onions, white onions and garlic and pepper. put some oil in the wok (again, u may use a pot here but i find that the wok cooks the vegetables much better and evenly without burning and also allows me to use very little oil and avoid charring my food!). i do a tablespoon of oil per person, depends on u though. pour in the chopped onions and garlic. let them stir fry on low heat for some time. 2/3mins. if using raw meat or chicken, add them now and stir occassionally to make sure they brown evenly. shud still b on low/medium heat. add in the vegetables (chopped) and pepper, sprinkle with salt (a little bit) and continue to stir fry. if using shrimps, add them now and let it fry for a bit more. reduce heat to minimum, pour in soy sauce and maggi. boil rice in a separate pot. if using stock, boil rice in the stock. do not add salt to rice. when rice is boiled and all water dried, empty pot of rice into the wok containing the stir fry and stir in gently making sure that it doesnt get mashed up. voila, ur fried rice is ready. hope it was useful!!! peace! |
