Place on medium heat. When the oil is hot, add 1/2 sliced onion, fry till translucent, this should take around 6-8 minutes, add the crayfish, stir and fry for 2-3 minutes….-Add 3 cooking spoons of the blended pepper, the Knorr, Maggi or preferred cubes, salt to taste, stir and fry for 5-6 minutes, stir occasionally. Try not to add too much salt if you’ll be using stock, remember stock contains a considerable amount of salt…-Add 3 cups of stock or water if you haven’t got stock, stir and let it cook for 4 minutes to thoroughly combine, then add the Ponmo or any other tough protein you’re using, -Gently add the parboiled rice…-Stir and combine thoroughly, then add the shredded smoked fish and prawns, stir; make sure the liquid isn’t too much. Taste for salt and seasoning, adjust if necessaryNote: It’s better to start with a small quantity of water or stock, add more stock or water, preferably stock as you go to prevent overcooking. -Cover tightly and cook till rice is very tender, stir occasionally to avoid burning. If you’re using vegetables, add tough vegetables like scent leaf 2 minutes before doneness, then switch the heat off and continue to simmer with the residual heat for a further 2-3 minutes. If you’re using Spinach, add after doneness and simmer with the residual heat for 3 minutes.Enjoy!..😊
