- 1 spoonful ground Crayfish(optional)
- 1 tablespoonful Vegetable Oil
- Fresh pepper to taste(chilli pepper or habanero(atarodo)
- 1 seasoning cube or 1 teaspoon seasoning powder
1. If the prawns aren't cleaned yet, remove the shell, break off the heads and tails and discard, then peel off the black vein at the back of the prawn, rinse the prawn meat in salted water. And set aside.
2. Wash and slice the vegetables and set aside.
3. Chop the onions and pepper and set aside.
4. Place the oil into a pot, add the chopped onions, pepper , ground crayfish and fresh prawns. Stir fry for a 10 seconds.
Tip: the ground crayfish is optional but it gives the mix a sweet aroma and irresistible taste.
5. Add the sliced vegetable and seasoning powder, and stir fry for about 2 minutes or until the vegetable is cooked.
Tip: you can add a little salt if you want to, but remember that the seasoning cube has salt in it, so that you don't overdo it it.

DeleteHamzat Moyosore! Woooow this great ma, thumbs up for You. Ma you didn't give me feedback on cocktail n chap man. Thnks.
ReplyDeleteHi Hamzat, I've been busy with work, as for the chapman and cocktail. Cocktail is a drink made with alcohol and fruit juice.
DeleteChapman is the Nigerian cocktail, but if your customer are requesting for other type of cocktails, you can do a google search for easy cocktail recipes and choose one that you can make. Try it using a small quantity and then you'll know the measurement to use for 100 people or more.
Please i'll like to know how you can cover your cake without having extra shapes?
ReplyDeletebcos wen i try to cover mine i have some compacted parts. i have to start trimming and smoothing. thanks
Hi Chinonso, you have to use a fondant smoother to get it smooth all over :)
DeleteI'm not great at cooking, but looking at this, I'm sold. My cooking is either to salty or under salt, and I'm always burning my cooking as well. I'm still trying to learn to cook and stop burning the boiled eggs...

Welcome to the website hun.
DeleteTo get this shape, all you need is a deep round bowl. Press down the rice and let it stay for few seconds to get the shape of the bowl, then turn over unto a flat plate. That's all dearie :)

Hi, your recipes are mouth watering. I will definitely try them out soon. Am in my early pregnancy stage so am really not eating. So watch out for feedbacks and pics when I start eating as I love to cook. Are there any food recipe u can share that boost appetite?.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the baby :)
DeleteDon't worry about boosting your appetite now, you would see how fast your appetite will come back after the first trimester, but you can also try ripe pawpaw(that's my go-to fruit when pregnant).
I'll be expecting the feedbacks and pics.
Wishing you a safe delivery too :)
