DESIGNER RICE - CHRISTMAS RECIPE

If you have been looking for something new to "WOW" your family/guest this season, then this is IT! It is fresh, different and delicious! Why is it called designer rice? I'll tell you. My Mother-In-Law would often bring home this stew which she called Designer Stew and it was Ayamase, very delicious. If you don't know how to prepare Ayamase, see HERE for the Recipe. Today I will show you how to take it to another level.


INGREDIENTS
3 Cups Parboiled Rice
4 Big Green Bell Peppers
1/2 Green and 1/2 Red Bell Peppers Sliced
1 Red Onion chopped, 1 Red Onion Blended with 4 Green Bell Peppers 
1 tsp Cameroun Pepper
Salt to taste [according to your preference]
Seasoning Cube [according to your preference]
1/4 Cup Palm Oil, Bleached 
Stir fry beef, fried

PREPARATION

  • Halve Green Bell Peppers and place in the oven to roast for 10 minutes, Also halves an onion and place in the oven (see video below)
  • Take out and peel the skin of the bell peppers to remove the brown parts
  • Blend Roasted Onion and Pepper till smooth
  • Add palm oil in a pot, cover and allow to bleach for 8 - 10 minutes (the colour will go from red to golden, just like vegetable oil and it will have a distinctive aroma)
  • Allow palm oil to cook, add onions, sauté. 
  • Add blended pepper and allow to fry for 15 minutes (ill it becomes clumpy and the oil separates from the pepper
  • In another pan, fry stir fry beef and drain, then add to the pepper mixture
  • Add rice to the sauce, combine properly and cover the pot. The rice still needs to cook a bit because it was only parboiled. So reduce the heat, and let the steam do the work for 7 minutes. 
  • After cooked, add sliced bell peppers and mix together for a rich, vibrant colour and flavour.
Enjoy!

  2. I watched this on your YT channel and loved it! I just need to try it out now, but I feel I need a yoruba woman to teach me how to successfully bleach palm oil (Despite the name, I am not yoruba!). Not on screen oh, like I need them in my kitchen for real!
