Recipe for basic Nigerian fried rice.

Ingredients for chicken and stock:

- Chicken
- Onions (chopped)
- Curry powder
- Thyme
- Seasoning (knorr chicken preferably)
- Salt
- A little water (for stock)


Ingredients for vegetables:

- Onions
- Carrots
- Fresh peppers (ata rodo)
- Green peppers
- Green beans
- Spring onions
- Curry powder
- Thyme

All vegetables chopped.

Process:


Step one

Season and cook your chicken as you would with the listed ingredients, until done.
Be sure to have some stock in your chicken, because you're going to use it to cook your rice.

Step two

Cook your rice with the chicken stock and water as required, add seasoning and salt to give taste to your rice.
You can also add curry powder to the rice for aroma and colour.
Seasoning your rice ahead will make it taste better when you eventually mix with the stir fried vegetables.

Step three

If you want your chicken fried, you can start by frying your chicken in the same oil your going to use to fry your vegetables.

Make sure not to fry on high heat, so that your oil does not smoke.

And you don't need much oil.
Shallow frying your chicken is okay.
Just to brown them a little.

Step four

After frying your chicken, proceed to frying your chopped vegetables, starting with onions, carrots, green beans, green peppers, spring onions, thyme, in that order.

Note: You can skip the curry powder if you already added some to the cooked rice, or you can go ahead and add a little.
Curry always does Nigerian fried rice good.

Step five

Add the cooked rice into the stir fried vegetables (or the vegetables to your rice, whichever one is convenient for you)
Mix until well combined.
Taste for salt, and add if needed.

Your basic Nigerian fried rice is ready. Serve with your chicken.🙂
You can ask questions for clarity.

You are so kind,this helped me too,but my color nor yellow😔

Belated Merry Xmas and a properous new year in advance to you all.

Please my wife travelled for the Xmas/new year celebration. Am left with my kids and they have been yelling into my ears that on new year day, is fried rice or nothing.

I know how to cook jollof/white rice. But you see this fried rice, I no sabi shiban.

Please great cooks in the house, I need you all to help me with the recipe as well as the steps involves before I spoil these boys year new day.

Thanks in anticipation.

Am typing on the go so please overlook any error(s)


If I'm not too late... there's this easiest recipe for newbies that has been helpful.

Step 1- Go to the market and buy the following
* Green peas (raw)
*Green bean (raw) soak overnight b4 using
*Sweet corn (canned)
*Green bean (canned)
*Carrot (raw)
*Leafy onions
* Green pepper
* Cow-liver
*Fried rice seasonings(nora...spicity..green satchet...know cubes...curry...thyme...lasarol)


Step 2- Rinse all the raw vegetables and dice them into little cubes or chunks

Step 3- parboil your rice and pour into a seive

Step 4 - place your your cooking pot on gas...add oil....add all the chopped vegetables and liver and the canned vegetables...stir fry a bit then pack the fried vegetables into a seive.

Step 5- add water that can cook the amount of the parboiled rice into the frying oil.... add a the satchet spices and maggi.with salt..add you stock...i.e the water gotten from the boiled chicken or meat. ....allow to boil for few minutes...



Step 6 - add the parboiled rice to the boiling water and stir with a turning stick...cover it to allow the water dry up with the rice.



Step 7-. Once the water is dried in the rice... add all the fried vegetables to the rice and turn with a turning stick...then cover to steam up for few minutes.

Step 8- turn off the gas and serve your rice with coleslaw and chicken.




Note: ensure that the water you're using to boil the rice isn't too much cos the rice is already parboiled and would soon get soft... little water to avoid your rice from being soggy .


This method is easier than trying in bits that can go bad quickly in the cooler.



Happy holidays to you and the kids Sir.

I'm glad you found it helpful.

If you want your rice to have more colour, add about a teaspoon of turmeric powder to the rice while cooking.
The rice will absorb the colour, plus turmeric gives its own aroma, but be careful not to use too much because with turmeric, a little goes a long way.

Ask for turmeric powder from those women that sell salad/fried rice ingredients or those mallams that sell spices.

Don't mind him. I'm sure he enjoyed it. cheesy
Besides, you're going to keep getting better and better the more you cook it, so don't be discouraged.

Let me tell; children are very observant, and they know way more than you think.

FalseProphet1:
This is where your faith comes into play, wash and put the rice into your pot the prophesy to it...

Say the following words...Oh ye rice, transform thine self into fried rice thereof with assorted meats and chicken.

You must say it with confidence and at the top of your voice. I would also recommend that you get a bell and ring when you're doing this prophet exercise, don't bother about your husband, your kids or your neighbours, just do it with confidence in your heart and the raw rice would transform and become fried rice.

This I have seen.
faith without works is dead
