Breakfast Idea

Each time I go to Bed, I always remember the saying; eat  breakfast like a King😊 and it makes me look forward  to waking up and storming the Kitchen to explore.
The fact that you have to eat breakfast  like a King doesn't  mean you should gulp down Eba and Hot soup (no offence to people who do this) but come on heheheh.
Before you prepare breakfast,  check what  you have in the your fridge or store. You must not have it all to enjoy a palatable breakfast. As for me, anything available is desirable.
This post is for people who do not know what to prepare for breakfast  some days. Most people hardly have time to do so, but since  tomorrow  is Saturday, why not give nourish your body and that of your family with a sumptuous breakfast like this....

This is Irish Potato Salad, Sardine and egg Sauce, Bread.

You can enjoy this with a cup of Tea, Coffee, Orange Juice etc.

Food Plating

Hey Food Lovers!!! It's  been a while and it feels good to be back to cooking and blogging. I'm  sure no one wants to hear the boring long story about why I went offline for a while so I'll  just jejely skip it and move on to today's  topic.

Yesterday my Sister sent me a picture to show me she's  learning how to  plate food and I was impressed and got inspired to make this post. A lot of people think only rich people  make their  food look nice but that's  just a very funny myth. Any body's food can look good, when a dish is well plated, it's  pleasing to the eyes. Remember  the eyes eats before the mouth. The way food is presented makes one hungry even when you are full, you just want to taste it. Some people might say plating takes time but that's not true. It's  actually fun seeing  your food look so amazing even if it doesn't  taste so great lol (my food always tastes great duuuh).....

This is a non plated food.  This is how a lot of people serve food. Even though this food might taste  so delicious it doesn't  exactly  please the eyes.

Now this is the same food, same plate, but different look. It looks like an ajebota  lol

So what's your excuse for dishing  out food like the first picture? ??? Now receive CHANGE!!!! 😂😂😂
Here are more plated food pictures to feed your eyes😊

Have a fabulous day...

for food lovers: COCONUT SAUCE!

COCONUT SAUCE!

when ever I go out and see Coconut, I just buy it even when I don't have need for it but because it's coconut, mama must buy! The funny thing is I'm allergic to eating raw coconut but I still buy it, break it, drink the water, eat the coconut, swallow the milk and then spit out the chaff....yeah weird but I have to save my fragile belly from pain because the chaff upsets it. anyhoooooo my love for coconut will never die lol.

Since I can't eat coconut like normal people do, I decide to use for my cooking. we all know about the famous "coconut rice" and shortly I will bring my own style of making it but it's not what I'm here for today...{drinks cold water}so.....today it's about COCONUT SAUCE!!!
the taste no be here.  its very easy to make  and very healthy as it is prepared with a lot of vegetables and no oil. I know a lot of people who get tired once any food that has anything to do with coconut is mentioned not because they hate it, but the coconut processing is tiring. The good news is that coconut powder is now sold the shops, so if you want to skip the breaking and blending and sieving of the coconut process, you can just walk into a shop and buy coconut powder. [I used Emma coconut powder].

INGREDIENTS
EMMA COCONUT POWDER- 3[SATCHETS]
500g CHICKEN
CARROT -10
GREEN PEPPER- 3
GREEN PEAS
SPRING ONIONS
CURRY [TO SEASON THE CHICKEN]
DRY PEPPER
SALT TO TASTE.

DIRECTION
Wash, season and boil the chicken,
slice the vegetables,
empty the coconut powder in a small bowl and melt with small water till it's smooth and looks like milk,
when the chicken is tender, add the coconut powder[now turned milk] and stir, then cover the pot and allow to boil for 15minutes.
add all the vegetable.
cook for another 5 minutes
Coconut Sauce is ready!!!

AWESOMENESS

boil the chicken

 

slice the vegetables

 

meet emma coconut powder

 

 

the real DEAL!!!

enjoy this sumptuous deliciousness with hot rice and thank me later!
