SUNDAY DELIGHT

After feeding my spirit man with the ever satisfying Word of God and because this is the first Sunday of year 2016, i have decided to share the recipe of my thanksgiving meal; FRIED RICE!


Ingredients:
Rice
Green pepper
Onions
Carrot
Grounded Garlic and ginger(optional)
Seasoning cube, 
salt, 
curry & thyme
Peas
Sweet corn
Diced liver/corn beef
Green beans
Green bell pepper(tatashe)
Spring onions
Broth/stock(chicken or beef)
Cabbage for garnishing(optional)
Red scotch pepper(atarodo)
Soya/olive/veg oil for frying.

HOW TO PREPARE...
Boil beef or chicken using seasoning(ginger,garlic,thyme,curry,salt,seasoning cube, onion)
 When done, drain and set the broth/stock aside. 
Fry the chicken or beef and put aside the used oil.
If u choose to use liver, Chop it up, boil and set aside. You can even cook it with your broth/stock but you have to get it out first because it doesn't take time to be cooked.
Parboil your rice for 5mins, drain water then cook the rice with the broth/stock little water,seasoning and enough curry to give it a great colour. Cook till its almost soft, pour into a sieve and set aside.
If using fresh vegetables, chop the carrots,onions,green bell pepper, green beans,spring onion, cabbage and liver(if not chopped before cooking). Open up your peas from the pod.
if using canned vegetables, rinse all, drain and set aside.
Now,get the oil used to fry the chicken or beef...put it into a fry pan on medium heat, when oil gets hot, in this order pour in your carrots,liver,peas,green beans,sweet corn,green bell pepper,red scotch bonnet pepper, onions and spring onions( please, don't include the cabbage). After pouring all in that order,season with little salt,seasoning cube and curry to give it a nice taste. Fry for few minutes like 2-5minutes depending how soft you want it. DON'T DEEP FRY!
Pour this fried mixtures in a separate container,put little oil in your fry pan and start frying your vegetables and cooked rice together in batches/portions.( this is depending on the quantity of the rice)
When a batch is done, pour into a serving dish or pot and start again with the next batch till the last batch is done.
Garnish with your chopped cabbage if desires, serve and enjoy.
