Heeeey loves!! Trust you’ve all been well since the last time we met, well interracted😊

Fried beef

Ingredients

*Beef

* Onions

*Tomatoes

*Capsicum

*Spices use your preferred spices. ( I used garam masala, dhana jeera, curry powder and soy sauce )

Notice I didn’t use salt coz I used soy sauce

I preboiled my meat. ( Preboiling meat doesn’t reduce the flavor, just use the stock when frying, don’t use kawaida water, this ensures the beef maintains its natural flavor)

Preboiling also ensures your meat will be soft and won’t need to be fried for too long.

Method

Add onions and oil in a pot, cook till they’re golden brown, add tomatoes and your preferred spices. Let the tomatoes cook till they crush or they’re soft enough to be crushed using your cooking spoon. ( Cook tomatoes to your liking) I just dont like seeing mine in my meal.

How it looked after the tomatoes cooked.

Add the preboiled beef and let it cook for a few minutes.

Add soy sauce and capsicum when the meat is well cooked. Let them cook for 2 minutes or so. Beef is ready to be served.

Vegetable fried rice

Ingredients

*Rice(preboil the rice)

*Peas(preboil the peas as well)

*Cubed carrots

*Onions

* Oil

*Tumeric

Method

After preboiling the rice and peas, I cooked the veggies.

Cook your onions till they are translucent , they should look like this.

Add the carrots, peas and preferred spices. I used curry powder, dhana jeera and tumeric. Oh plus some salt. Let them cook for a few minutes.(Maintain the crunch in your carrots)

Add your rice bit by bit as you fluff it. Once you’ve added all the rice let it cook for just a few minutes to absorb the flavor. Rice is ready to be served.

Stir fry potatoes

Anyone who’s been to my place recently has had a fair share of waru meals😂 Effects of getting warus from ushago haha. On the bright side, there’s so much you can do to warus to make them either a meal on its own or as an accompaniment like I did this time.

We can’t be friends if you don’t like warus lol😂😂

Ingredients

* Potatoes

* Onions

* Capsicum(have y’all noticed my love for capsicum by now? No? Okay 😂😂

* Soy sauce

* Garam masala

Method

Peel and chop your potatoes. (You can leave the peels on if that’s how you prefer your potatoes)

Boil potatoes but don’t overboil them because they will break when being fried.

In a pan, fry onions and let them brown. When chopping the onions, use the semi-circle shape. Once the onions are properly cooked, add the preboiled potatoes, sprinkle some garam masala then add soy sauce.

Let them cook as you carefully turn them to absorb the flavor. Add your capsicum and cook them for a few minutes. Potatoes are ready to be served. ( When turning, be careful to avoid breaking them)
