THE DIARY GAME: 21/08/2020 Cooking And Everything In-between!

Dear Diary,
TGIF!
It’s the weekend and I intended to have some fun today!
the day started so well, woke up to a beautiful morning and skyline until it started raining so heavily later.
There was no space to do outdoor activities and workout routines. So I settled for cleaning and arranging my room.
For breakfast I made Jollof Rice.

My household loves eating rice especially Jollof Rice. The ingredients I used were

5cups of rice
Groundnut oil
Tin tomatoes
Onions
Cray fish
Pepper
Salt
Curry/Thyme
Seasoning cubes

Procedure.
Firstly, I washed the rice and parboiled for 20minutes after which I rinsed and drained it.

Secondly, I placed the pot on fire and poured the groundnut oil after it became hot I added the sliced onions, salt and tin tomatoes.

I stirred continuously while adding the crayfish, pepper, curry and thyme and later added seasoning cubes.

I allowed it to heat for 5minutes before adding water. While it was boiling, I poured in the parboiled rice and continued to heat.

After heating for sometime, I stirred and tasted if everything was fine, I allowed it to seamer for 6minutes before switching off the gas cooker.

I boiled egg and enjoyed it with my Jollof Rice.
Which was what I had for breakfast.
Ran some errands and later got new package of yarns for my new projects.
Spent most of my time at home today getting new inspiration for my new crochet projects.
