Hello chefs. Greetings to you all. I decided to cook a nice spicy Palm Oil rice today as it's been a while since I cooked it.
Palm oil rice is not only a beloved west African dish but also a nutritious and cultural dish cooked with nice ingredients to being out an great flavour.
Rice contains key vitamins and minerals, such as vitamin A, C, and potassium.
Palm oil rice when added with proteins helps in maintaining overall health.
Besides it is also called “Iwuk Edesi” in the Ibibio language
Ingredients I used
2 cups of rice
2 bulb of onions
Fresh peppers
Seasoning cube
Chicken or beef broth
Palm oil (quarter bottle)
Ripe plantains(optional)
Crayfish
Thyme and curry (optional)
First, I washed my raw rice and boiled it for 25 minutes.
Then I rinsed it out and kept the parboiled rice away( it should be strong to some extent)
I sliced onions in big chunks. I love chewing onions in my food especially spicy palmoil rice nd other rice types.
I used fresh pepper, sliced it into some bits that are not too small.
Then I broke the prawns, the head and the tail that are sharp and are not safe to be eaten.
Then i grinded the head and tail well and added the main crayfish together
I used three seasoning cubes and kept the chicken broth aside.
Then I kept the thyme aside to be used later.
Next, I peeled the ripe plantains and cut it in big chunks. I decided to boil it inside the rice.
After, all the preparations, I fried my palm oil added onions, half of the fresh peppers, thyme and seasoning cubes then I added my chicken broth inside and left it to boil for some minutes.
Next I added the washed parboiled rice inside the pot and added two cups of water and stirred it lightly.
Next I added the plantains inside the rice and covered it.
After ten minutes I added the extra seasoning cubes, all the fresh peppers, crayfish and prawns and onions.
Then I tasted the rice and made sure everything is tasting well.
After the rice became soft, I put it down and turn off the fire.
Spicy Palm Oil and boiled riped plantains is served.
