The Diary Game; My mixed cereal journey (28/11/2024)

Hello Cameroon steemians, I hope you're doing fine. It's good to be here to share my diary session with you all .
I woke up today with great joy in my heart because I have an amazing thing I want to do .
After waking up by God's grace I did my regular morning devotion to give reference to the great sustainer and keeper which is the almighty God .
After that , I went straight to do my morning chores and it wasn't even up to 8:00 a.m. guys, I was hungry all ready 😂😂, but I told myself I will not eat until I finish what I intend doing.
So my schedule for the day was to make a mixed cereal for myself . I had already gone to the market yesterday to get the cereals. Just to enlighten you all, mixed cereal is a weight gain meal made with different cereals like guinea corn , millet ,soybeans ,yellow corn ,wheat, crayfish ,groundnut ,fish and lot more depending on your choice . It can be eaten by children and adults .
Back to the main story line, after doing the chores I went ahead to pick the the cereals ,I started with millet first because it's more tedious to pick than the rest of the cereals .

After picking the Millet and Guinea corn at this point I was extremely famished so I went to a close by food store to buy some food stuffs like rice, crayfish palm oil to prepare our native rice usually called MTN rice.

Let me take you through the process of how I prepared it

I bought two cups of rice, cray fish, tera cube( highly recommended for rice), pepper ,onions and palm oil.
I first picked the rice after that I parboiled it , washed it 3 times before cooking.
I choosed the frying method because it's gives a better taste .

Firstly, I poured reasonable amount of palm oil into my pot , allowed it get hot before adding onions , stir , add pounded crayfish and pepper stir a bit. Immediately , pour in the rice , stir till everything is mixed , add a reasonable amount of water , add seasoning cube , salt , oil again and cover to boil .🤭🤭🤗

To do all this didn't take up to 30minutes , so I went back to continue with my cereals while waiting for the rice to be ready .
I picked all the cereals , washed it and dried it . I dried it so it'll be easier to fry .

After drying everything , I mixed the cereals together , exception of soybeans because I want it separate.

I fried all the cereals and soybeans but before now , my rice was well eaten by me 🍲☺️.
I enjoyed it , it tasted so nice .

AFTERNOON ACTIVITIES

After frying I allowed it to get cold , while waiting for it to get cold . It was past 3 already . I used the opportunity to have my bath and prepared to go to the market and grind it . Getting to the market , I bought cray fish and dry fish and added to the mixed cereals , I was supposed to do it at home but I forgot . I made sure to remove bones from the fish . I was charged #1300 naira to grind everything .

Mixed cereals can be taken with fried or boiled eggs , akara , bread, doughnuts, but most importantly add enough milk to it when taking it . You can try it at home . Don't forget it's for kids and adult too 😜

Thank you for staying with me , I really appreciate 🫂🫂🙏.
