My Curried Rice Served With Vegetables And Fish

 

My Curried Rice Served With Vegetables And Fish, This plate of rice was actually consumed by me, I could not empty the plate because the quantity is much.

INGREDIENTS FOR COOKING
MY CURRIED RICE WITH VEGETABLES:
  1. 2 cups washed rice
  2. 1 cannedCanned fish
  3. 1 tablespoon curry
  4.  2 cups soya oil
  5. 1/2 can kidney beans
  6. 1/2 cup green peas
  7. 1 small cucumber
  8. 1 medium sized red onion
  9. 2 Knorr seasoning cubes
  10. salt to taste
  11. 1 spoon ground pepper
  12. water for a start, enough to cover the rice.

 

This is a meal that can be cooked in thirty minutes, so I can call it the thirty minutes meal.

The onion is stir fried with seasoning, fresh pepper and some curry.

The boiled or canned fish is added and covered for a short while before adding water. After the addition of water, the mixture is tasted to ensure that the salt is to taste, after tasting, I added some salt and some curry. The curry is what gives it that kind of fried rice colour. The washed rice is poured into the pot.
The pot is covered and brought to a boil. Once it starts boiling, the heat is reduced to let it cook slowly.

I do not like adding water to my Jollof rice cos it reduces the taste of the rice, so I put enough water at the first instance, reduce the heat and let it cook slowly. Without reducing the heat, water dries up fast leaving the food uncooked.

When the water level has reduced considerably, I taste again to see whether I need to add some salt or more knorr seasoning.

It is covered again and allowed to continue to simmer.
When it is done, the chopped cucumber is used to garnish. In this case, I added the cucumber to my plate and Hubby’s,  because the girls didn’t want.
They preferred the beans and peas alone.
I love eating my rice with cucumber because of the crunchy sound  when I chew. I also love to eat rice with bananas, but I could not go out to get some, so I made do with what is available. improvisation is always recommended and important in the kitchen.
