Cooking process:
The cooking process for jollof rice is simple, as I enjoyed that I had prepared and kept my ingredients aside. I sliced an onion, ground pepper, cut carrots, and ground my pepper, and kept them aside as seen in my picture.
After I have prepared all my ingredients and kept them aside, I then parboil the rice, wash it, and keep it aside.

After washing the rice, I then place a clean pot on fire and allow it to get dry, which I then turn in small quality of vegetable oil in the pot and allow it to heat. I added onions to the pot and stirred them slowly.

I added the sachet of tomatoes and fried them, adding ingredients into it. I put in some ingredients and stir them very well. I ensure that I don't put in too much salt.
After everything, I add water to the pot and add the washed rice and stir it. I check if ingredients need to be added, so I add more ingredients to the food and allow it to cook.
How did You Save?(2 marks)
I save time by ensuring that I have prepared all my ingredients and kept them aside. I do grind my pepper, wash all that is needed to wash, and keep them aside before turning on my gas. Also, while my food is on fire, I do wash all the dirty dishes that I have used.

The recipe that feels like a warm hug after a long, busy day is rice. There was a time when I felt so tired of what to do, that I went to the kitchen, dish rice, and ate. The rice helps me to regain my strength, and it makes me feel much better.
