This is a dish from Ghana/Nigeria. Amma used to make this when we were in Nigeria and even after we came back to India we continued to enjoy it. We got to taste it again this summer when my parents visited us and it took my taste buds down the memory lane.
This is a quick peek into that recipe along with some Rotisserie chicken we got from Walmart…. :-).
Ingredients:
Rice- 1 cup
Tomato- 2 sliced to small pieces
Onions- 1 sliced to small pieces
Chili Powder- ½ tsp
Salt to taste
Eggs-2
Maggie Taste maker- a pinch (optional)
Preparation:
Cook the rice and keep aside. First sauté the onions and then add the sliced tomatoes. Once well sautéed, add the chili powder and salt. Now add eggs and scramble them along with the sautéed mixture.
The next step is to add the cooked rice and mix well. A pinch of Maggie taste maker can be added for an extra punch in the end. I added the rotisserie chicken pieces to this and mixed them well.

ReplyDeleteYou won't believe this, but my mom used to make this too when we were in Nigeria (in the 80s)...we were in Enugu at that time and I still remember this dish...however, I can never replicate the taste of her dish...some things only mothers can do, I guess! Good to see a food blog by men, for a change...good going!
