Nigerian Fried Rice Ingredients
As with these 5 ingredients recipes, I do not count the following:
- The main ingredient, in this case rice
- Salt
- Water
The 5 ingredients:
- Chicken (hard chicken or hen)
- Nigerian Curry Powder
- Seasoning cubes
- Onions
- Mixed vegetables (carrots, sweet pepper and green peas)
Notes on the Ingredients
- Nigerian curry powder is not spicy like the Indian curry powder. Its job is to give the Nigerian Fried Rice its classic colour.
- Hard chicken is tastier than rooster. Use it for maximum flavour.
- I used beef flavour seasoning cubes even though I am cooking with chicken because it packs more flavour than chicken flavoured seasoning cubes.
The following is/are the ingredient(s) I missed when I tasted the meal.
- None!
This Fried Rice tasted so umbelieveable good. Yum! I thought I would miss liver (diced) like I normally add to the full option Fried Rice but I did not.
