I enjoyed Easter with a sumptuous jellof rice with fried fresh fish prepared by me. I was seeing a movie yesterday and I saw the actors and actresses eat while acting, I loved it and then I decided to prepare the same rice and eat today, so I went to the market and bought few stuffs.

I bought rice, fresh tomatoes, sachet pepper onions tomatoe paste, groundnut oil, fresh fish, onions, pepper, Maggi, Onga and crayfish. Few other things I had them at home, so above are the ingredients I bought.

  • I parboiled the rice and while it was on fire, I washed the fresh fish I bought. I sliced onions, grind pepper and poured it inside the pot alongside with salt and Maggi.

  • Immediately the rice boiled, I brought the pot down and washed it, while doing that, I steamed the fish. While that was going on, I prepared other things like slicing of the fresh tomatoes and more onions, grinding pepper with crayfish.

  • After 5 minutes of steaming the fish, I placed another pot on fire, allowed the water in it to dry off and then add groundnut oil. When the oil was hot, I added a little salt, onions and the pepper onion tomato paste and turned for about 5 minutes.
