LOCAL PALM OIL JOLLOF...

Another favorite in my kitchen, there's just something about this dish that does it for me even though i don't get to cook it as often as i'd like, it did make me a very happy bunny last night though. Cook it over firewood and i just might part with a prized possession or 2. :)

Rice
Beef or any kind of meat
Dried fish
Seafood mix of shrimp and calamari
Crayfish
Curry
Garlic
Half a cup of palm oil
Garlic
Onions
Scent leaf
Salt and Pepper



Parboil your rice, wash and set aside.

Chop your beef into little pieces, season with garlic, salt, pepper, curry and onions until tender.

Add your ground crayfish, dried fish, seafood mix and palm oil, stir and let it come to a boil.

Add your rice. Taste for seasoning. Allow rice to cook for 10 minutes, add some more chopped onions and turn down the heat.

In another 10 minutes rice should be cooked, add some washed and finely chopped scent leaf to bind the taste together.

Give it one last stir and take it off the heat.

It really is that simple.



Enjoy!
