Rice and stew 🤤

Simple… but undefeated.

---

There’s just something about it:

Hot fluffy rice

Rich tomato stew

That perfect mix of spice and flavor

---

Here’s exactly how I make mine 👇

---

🍚 How I cook the rice:

1. Rinse the rice 2–3 times (to remove excess starch)

2. Add water (just enough to cover the rice)

3. Add a pinch of salt

4. Cook on medium heat till soft

5. Let it steam for a few minutes

---

🍅 How I make the stew:

Step 1: Blend

Fresh tomatoes + pepper + onions

---

Step 2: Fry

Heat oil, add onions, then fry the blended mix

Let it cook until the water dries and the oil separates

---

Step 3: Season

Add salt, seasoning, and spice

Then add your protein (chicken, beef, or fish)

---

Step 4: Let it simmer

This is where the real flavor comes out 🔥

---

🍛 Serve hot with your rice

---

That first bite?

Always worth it.

---

💡 Tip:

Don’t rush the stew.

The longer it fries (properly), the better it tastes.
