How to make Nigerian fried rice Lazy man method
If you have never cooked lazy man fried rice before, then kudos o. I can’t count how many times sef but can say how
many times I have cooked correct correct fried rice with all the Shrimps, liver and all. Come to think of it, the taste is the exact same thing. Lazy man fried rice cooks fast because the lazy bones won’t let me fry in batches. I just stir fried the few ingredients available and added.
That makes me a wonderful chef you know, it’s not easy to manage ingredients and still make some delicious and nutritious, if you ask me, I think that is genius.
That’s one thing God gave us women that men don’t have o. I don’t mean chef men o. Men like the people around us and our husbands, if any food recipe lists 30 ingredients, they cannot manage with 29 but I can comfortably cook whatever that is with half the ingredients and I know a lot if women can.
Like this fried rice, I dare any man to come up with something this simple yet so delicious.
Adding the stir ried vegetables to cooked curried rice. |
Ingredients for Lazy Man Fried Rice
2 cups basmati rice. This quantity served four including children sha.
Curry I boil the rice with enough curry for bright colour. If you like tumeric, you may use it.
Seasoning cubes, plenty o.I used 2 chicken Maggi for this rice plus another half for the veggies. All these vegetables are tasteless, they just absorb your seasoning to taste good. If you manage with seasoning, then, you are going to have a tasteless pot of fried rice.
Salt
Soya oil to saute the veggies
1 large tatashey
A large carrot
1 large green pepper
2 cloves of cabbage.
1 medium sized onion
This rice should have even stock but it doesn’t. I worried a bit though, that cooking rice without stock would be terrible but the yummy pot proved me wrong.
Na water I take cook this fried rice,ordinary tap water with seasoning.
Lazy man fried rice, ask me why I add those olives there? I don’t even know.
In my desperation to prove to you guys that my food presentation is getting better, I’ll just be looking round d round the kitchen, looking for what will add colour to my pics. Na wa, if only those I served knew my reason for the olives, I don’t think they’d have enjoyed the combination the way they did. For me o, I didn’t want olive sour taste in my rice so I kuku comot all the olives keep for corner before facing the two mountains of rice. |
How To Cook lazy Man Fried Rice:
First, wash the rice, boil normally with enough curry and salt. While rice boils, dice all the vegetables you want to use ( there’s no liver to boil so relax). Saute the vegetables with some oil and seasoning, when vegetables are a bit wilted, the onion looks kinda translucent, that means turn off the heat and add vegetables to cook rice.
Stir gently and serve. QED.
