you don't eat boiled meat?do you eat fried meat?if your answer is none at all,I would recommend fish!!well,let me give you the recipe for stew
Ingredients 4 fresh tomatoes 2tins of tomatoe paste I bulb of onion 4 bells of pepper 3 maggi cubes I tbsp of curry I little cup of vegetable oil I fresh fish Salt to taste
How to prepare
wash fish with running water and cut into desired fillets put into saucepan put in some of the ground fresh pepper a little onions 1 cube of maggi put on the fire to boil for some minutes, by then,the broth must have been visible in the fish now the stew proper... Put the oil in another saucepan allow to heat for sometime add fresh tomatoes allow to fry for at least 10mins to remove the tangy taste add onions add pepper maggi cubes then add the tomatoe paste cover with lid for at least 10mins then pour in the fish with the broth allow to boil for 5 more minutes
allow to simmer,then serve with rice,dodo or anything you prefer....
are you satisfied?

well,since you don't eat fish,use the same recipe for the meat or whatever you are using,but this time,use the meat broth,and fry the meat in vegetable oil or olive oil.
WARNING!!! don't turn the meat after every 2 seconds,for the golden brown color,turn it after five minutes and don't be scared of oil spurting on you,its normal!!!! Got to split.. byeee!!!

Alright, the marinaded chicken
It's easy. You season the chicken according to taste(as for me I like pepper) Then marinade(dip, pour)the chicken with a Thousand Island Dressing cream or any Italian dressing(Marinera sauce) It's better if you leave it on for the taste to enter(doesn't really matter) Put in a pan, set in oven for 350o until cooked.

Directions: · Put 2-3 cups of water to a boil · Add your spaghetti(Break it into two..because it very long), make sure you leave the pot-opened because it boils and foams up. · Add salt to taste.

Ingredients for your sauce:A little bit of Water 1spoon full or less of Canola oil 2-3 Tomatoes 2- Pepper (those huge ones) 1bulb of Onion 4-5 green onion (those kindaa look like a long green grass) 1 can teaspoon of tomato paste( thatz a 70g) 1-2 Maggi/seasoning Parsley, Rosemary or thyme leaves (only if u like em’) ¾ or less Salt—make sure u taste n’ see Direction to cooking the sauce!· Slice your tomatoes, pepper, onion—make sure u don’t slice them soo little, so make sure itz kind of sliced in form of a strip · Mash or break up your ground beef in a bowl-- Using ground beef (yeahh I know u eat that) NOTEE!! Make sure u don’t touch other surfaces after touching your beef!----so therefore, wash your hands occasionally · Add a little bit of oil in a fryin pan, heat it up a little bit, and later add your tomatoes, pepper and onion. Heat up your magi a little bit and add it in. · Add a little bit of salt to taste; add your seasoning (either Parsley, Rosemary or thyme leave) Mehnnn this thing long ooooo!! · Kk and now add a little bit of oil in a fryin pan when itz heated, add in your mashed up ground beef in and steam it a little bit!
