How to Cook Easy and Healthy Jollof/Veggie Spaghetti

Hey guys! I hope you are having a great Sunday. Today’s Sunday Funday Recipe is one that I’ve been working on for some time now, and I take full credit of it. If you like vegan meals, or, Jollof Rice you might love this very easy to make Spaghetti. I’ll let you in on a secret, it’s completely meatless. So, if you’re on a meatless diet, this meal is also for you.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED:

½ of the Golden Penny spaghetti.
4 Very Big Carrots.
½ of a Big Cauliflower Plant.

½ of a medium bowl of well chopped Red Onions.
½ of a medium bowl Green Peas.
1 small cup of Power Oil.
3 moderate spoons of well ground dried crayfish.
3 Cubes of Maggi Seasoning.
3 Spoons of Salt.
2 small Spoons of Yaji Suya spice.
½ Satchet of Onga Seasoning Stew Spice.
A Grater.

Method:

Gently Wash the Cauliflower. Wash the Peas and Carrots as well. Grate the Cauliflower and 2 carrots. Then, Chop up the remaining 2 carrots as well. 

In a clean medium pot pour in water and bring to a boil. Add the washed clean peas, after 5 minutes scoop them out and place in a sieve. Then, add the spaghetti to the already boiling water, and leave it to boil for 20 Minutes.

Pour out the spaghetti and water into a sieve to strain out the water. Wash the spaghetti with clean cold water and leave it in the sieve.

Pour out the groundnut oil into a clean waterless pot add the chopped red onions, carrots and cauliflower, and place on high heat for 10 minutes while stirring to avoid burning it.

Add your yaji spice, salt to taste, ground crayfish, maggi, and onga spice. Add your green peas last after stirring the veggies for a while (10 minutes). Time to add your spaghetti. Mix it for a while with the veggies, while on high heat. You can choose to add a little water and let it simmer a bit. Personally, after mixing and letting it heat up a little I bring down my pot and serve. I don’t add water to it anymore. And no, it doesn’t burn. I closely monitor it to avoid that.

Enjoy your meal. Who else is excited that Bassey and Bisola got saved in the 2017 Big Brother Naija? I don’t watch it every day, only on Sundays to see who gets evicted. OMG! I almost died now you guys! Jon Ogah is the fake housemate. Remember the first big brother Naija, when Ebuka was a housemate and they introduced Katung? Urgh you probably didn’t watch it don’t mind me. When I heard the name of the second fake housemate Ese, I was like what? Is Ese Walters a beauty queen? Then they called out her surname. Sadly, I don’t know her. Chaii..let’s see who she is.

Bisola is definitely thinking who is this again?

In other news, I really like that Payporte theme song (it’s good for dancing Shoki you should try it and see what I mean).
