Oh I know this recipe with molasses and caramel as well. I used to have a Jamaican coworker that showed it to me. What’s your specific recipe?Thank you in advance

I was just being lazy.

cococandy:
I used this browning sauce pictured below. I added purple cabbage to mine hence the darker color

But prior to adding it, I just seasoned my chicken as usual (season to your taste).

The rice and peas were cooked in coconut milk and a bit of salt. Then I served it with the sauces from the chicken and cabbage.

And then you’ll make us some mango sticky rice? Promise?

Rice looks like it’s made to the perfect glutinous sticky texture

cococandy:

Yampotatocarrot:
Lol @ don't burn yourself

How safe is a pressure cooker? Have heard stories of them exploding and all...

Just need kitchen equipment that'll make life easier

Yampotatocarrot:
Please, anyone that has used rice cooker, I get question

Can the rice cooker be used to prepare meals like stew, soup, meat stock, e.t.c, or is it just for preparing rice and boiling egg?

I'll like to know the other meals it can be used to prepare

Also, for those that make doughnuts at home, how do you know when "e don don enter"? (Don't really know how to put it in proper English... How will you know that e don don... You know, to avoid opening the doughnut to find out that the inside is still raw dough)

Thank you

PS: this chicken still had blood in it. I wanted to do oyibo style of not boiling chicken but I've learned my lesson. Never again!

I used only gino sachet tomato for the food.

This thread motivated me to start cooking… I just started cooking last year. The biggest motivator is GboyegaD”. His food post always make me look lazy… so I started watching YouTube channels how to make naija foods… that’s how I started cooking… and guess what?? I enjoy it to the fullest… I work from home, so I have all the time to cook and try different naija dishes…. And today, I cook all my food myself…. Even though nah only me dey eat the food for the house…. I used to pay a lady to cook those soups for me, but not anymore…: my soups now make sense pass the ones they used to make for me lol…

So yes, this thread is a big motivator… Infact, I registered an account with Nairaland because of this thread. I’ve been a visitor here for over 12 years…

omooba969:
They're quite generous with the portion, how much did you have to pay for this?

cococandy:
I was thinking of my favorite breakfast restaurant too as I was making this

cococandy:
Breakfast. Biscuits with Maple sausage gravy and Lima bean scrambled eggs.

Mommadd:
I love it and I'm gonna recreate it, tumeric is a fantastic spice and a little goes a long way

cococandy:
Thanks. What’s her website?

I’ve ordered online before from Texas when I used to live in the east coast. The woman’s name is Mary. she shipped fast And gave me free gifts too 😁

cococandy:
The scent leaf I used was uziza. I don’t know what the botanical name is but it wasn’t basil

You’re right basil is readily available. I grow them

Lol.

200 Euros should be over 300 thousand naira. Do you know what I'll buy with that amount, and still have alot of change to spare to use to drink Jack Daniels and may be indulge myself with a little wet pleasure. Lol.

I won't even spend up to 100 thousand Naira to get all you got over here, that's if I'm in Lagos. Where I am, I won't spend up to 500 thousand Naira, hike, If I want, I'll go straight to the villages and buy them straight from the source, and it'll be way cheaper. Lol.

You guys spend alot on Nigerian foodstuff over there. I can't say if you will spend that much, if you ordered all those foodstuff from Nigeria.

cococandy:
It’s actually okay over here.
I spent 200 euros at this Igbo woman’s store and I made egusi with goat, okra with cow leg and yam porridge from everything I bought. Still have ingredients (poundo flour, yellow garri, palm oil, sardines, dried prawns, crayfish powder, amala, pepper) left for other meals if I want to.
I honestly think the price is fair considering everything.

But When I lived in Washington state, nearest African store was very far away and super expensive because she was the only one in that area. I think it depends on what western country one is shopping in.

joseph1832:
There's scent leaf in the US. I'm surprise...

First time, cooking in the UK. I don't cook in Nigeria so I know I'm in for a ride
