I wish I could give you a very big HUG, I just made fried rice using your method and I can say confidently that it’s the best I’ve ever made. Tastes so so good, my husband couldn’t stop giving me the thumbs up. Thank you and God bless the works of your hand😘😘😘
Ivonne, you have such a unique way of explaining your cooking steps!. You are the best RU-vid teacher I've seen by a 1,000 mile. Also, your culinary skills are excellent.
Tominiyi you said it better than I could have. She is refreshing, so easy to understand, methodical, clear. So many people cook well but just cannot communicate as effectively. She will go far.
Thank you so much for your recipes, my hubby is from Lagos and I’m from Oklahoma so by me cooking these dishes that you have provided I have made him so happy and my mother in law just loves for it. Lol so thank you.
Lovely. Please dont mind the critics who would completely enjoy sitting at your table and also do not have a tutorial themselves. Glad I found your channel....or actually your channel found me. Good job RU-vid.
Thank you so much Ivonne, this tutorial is wonderful! I grew up thinking that cooking fried rice was rocket science, but followed your tutorial step by step and could not believe how wonderful the result was! God bless
this is incredible...one pot ... girl you got me . this is by far easy way of making it. I like fried rice but some times I can't stand the steps of cooking Rice first, then fry vegetables and fry meats and then start combining. thank you for sharing. I agree you explain things so well that even a novice can follow you.
I love how detailed you are in your teaching. wish I had your patience replying to some rude and straight out disrespectful people on here. please keep it up!
Thank you for sharing your recipe. Where I live in Scotland we have a lot of folk from the Nigerian diaspora but they don't sing and dance about their culture which I think is a shame because Nigerian food is delicious. This recipe is new to me and I really want to cook it and more importantly eat it.
Very nice. Lots of flavours in there I bet it was tasty. The only thing I would do different is add the prawns after the first 15 mins. Raw prawns do not need more than 10 mins to cook. We as Nigerians over cook a lot of stuff especially seafood. Keep them coming. :) thanks for the video.
I have to give you the credits! Tried this method and It tasted fantastic! It's a much healthier method. However, with this method, unnecessary calories are avoided unlike the frying method! :)
You have the best methods i've seen by miles!!! I've tried your gizzdodo and jollof and they came out 10/10 thank you so much and please keep the videos coming......plllllleeeaaaaseee
I cook for my neighbors once a week, and this is far and away the favorite dish of one of the daughters. She absolutely loves this dish. Thanks so much for posting this. You're a great instructor.
I’ve made the fried rice following each step you’ve given and it has came out so delicious especially with the fact that this is my first time making Nigerian Fried Rice! Thank you so much for this video 👏🏾🙏🏾❤️
i have used your recipe and steps countless number of time to prepare my fried rice and it has not failed me. Not for once. Today, I decided to like, comment and also subscribe to your channel.
Hello Ivonne, I just stumbled across your channel today and I must say I am so impressed by your videos. keep it up, I look forward to your next recipe.
Mrs. Yvonne Ajayi this recipe is the bomb. I love it I will never eat fried rice from an Asian again. You are awesome and your recipes are the greatest I want to thank you so much for posting these recipes.
A Big Thumbs up to you Ivonne for explaining this method. I've been searching for the best way to prepare fried rice without using multiple pots. Thanks so much. You're the best.
I would like to thank you very much for sharing this meal idea with us. I made it for my work place and everyone loved it . They asked me if i can make it once a week for them. i even had a few offer to pay me to make it for them. thanks again, it was fantastic
Honestly Ivonne you are the best! The dodo and jollof rice have been a hit with my husband. God bless you, will make this when he comes back from Nnaji.
I made this one pot fried and, it was a success. Thank you Ajayi,I like to try out other recipe aside from Haitian food, it makes eating exiting as delicious.
Hi Ivonne - very happy to see your 4th video appear this year. I have made all of your recipes and the timing and the way you explain is so easy to follow - this weekend I tried the dodo gizzard for the 2nd time and Jellof Rice for the first time and it came out impeccable! I was asked if I bought the dishes rather than cooked them myself, so a huge success. Please keep posting new recipes this year as I will keep trying them!
Lara Dare Hi Lara, wow thank you so much! Thanks for trying them and I'm very happy the recipes turn out well when you make them 😊. Thanks for your support! Have a blessed week ahead x
Another great recipe. I think the type of rice used in cooking also determines the cooking time. From what I know basmati rice is not commonly used in Nigeria for daily cooking. Maybe it is used for parties. I hope this could be a tip to other viewers, I use pressure cooker to reduce the cooking time, the process is the same just that after adding the rice I mix well and cover the pressure pot, I leave it until I hear four whistles then remove from fire to let it rest, allowing it to cook through steam and Voila! It's ready to serve... Thanks again Ivonne
I didn't know that the starch contributed to the clumpiness of the rice. Thanks for the tip, chef ;) . I guess I will stop being lazy to wash my rice again.
This dish is clearly the PARENT of Carolina Low Country Chicken Bog. Created by the Africans enslaved in the Carolinas. The Black American community in the USA does a multitude of variations of this dish from very simple to complex. I learned to cook a variation of this from my Mom. It was a very simple recipe with minimal ingredients. This one pot meat and rice dish is excellent on a budget and can be made in many ways. I will definitely learn this version and cook it. Thank you for sharing!
Every step was so mouthwatering, even way before it was even complete, haha! Awesome!! It looks soooo good, I have to try it this weekend! Your instructions are so clear and your videos are so engaging and relaxing, thank you!!
Have always preferred this to jollof rice but never known how to make it, thanks to you I now have the confidence to try. Can I just use bell peppers and seasoning because I can't eat chilli peppers or scotch bonnet, nothing hot like them? Making it in one pot is so useful, you explain how to do it so easily and it looks fantastic when you've finished. Liked you jollof rice recipe again but can I make it without the scotch bonnet. Garlic and ginger not a problem. Many thanks, and keep up cooking. You are a natural and explain things so well anyone can follow.
Great instructions. yummy each time. 5th time I made this, I added fresh diced green pepper and carrots. omg!! Husband said it was the best i've ever made hehe!! The green bell pepper & fresh carrots give it that Nigerian Fried rice taste.
wow came across you today i think u are amazing its good to see someone with similar cooking methods however the only difference with mine is i put my mix vegs 10mins to the end cos i don't like it to be over cooked all the same job well done .
YAAAAAAAAAAY!!!!!!! Welcome back my sista! I've been stalking your channel for new videos lol I made the Giz-dodo and it tasted amazing...I also made the meat pie your method and i loved it. Thanks for being amazing! And May God continue to use you as a blessing here on this youtube platform!
onion spring onion (white part) scotch bonnet pepper ginger garlic chicken breast salt knor pepper thyme curry bayleaves carrot, green peas,sweetcorn chicken stock raw king prawns rice
Oh boy. I tried this recipe with basmati rice o. E no work for me. lol. I no know wetin the food turn to- whether na couscous abi wetin. lol. Next time I will just respect myself and use normal parboiled rice. 😊😊
I am not surprised. Ivonne na my person but when she said "one pot" and then she come dey put raw rice and water inside the fried up mede mede....dat time I know say water don pass rice for this channel! lol!!! This one no be Naija fried rice at all!!!!! Mba!
Cadgeify wash your rice and don’t parboil. That’s what I do with Jollof and fried, I was with hot water . The Golden Sella Basmati works well like that.
This was so easy to follow. Mine came our perfect. I only used one scotch bonnet because I thought it would be too spicy but next time I am going to use two. Please keep uploading more tutorial. This was super easy!!!
This recipe is amazing but i was wondering what can u use if u cant get the chicken stock mixture u had in the video from the water of the meat u previously boiled? Can I use boil water and add chicken stock, etc or what do I do?
In the first 30 seconds of this video I knew this food was going to bang, cant wait to try this out. I like the way everything was set up and the video is straightforward and easy to follow. I just hope I can do it justice because I always struggle with how much water to add in the pot to cook the rice :-(
The 284 people who did not like this cooking, are you serious ? Why can't we the Africans support each other ? The fried rice has been successfully cooked. What is your problem with that Enemies of progress ? Keep it up madam, you will soon reach millions of subscribers. Let no one be an obstacle, stay focus and you will achieve your gold. I am a Gambian and will always support my fellow African. I lay my case.. Thanks very much.
I just came across your channel, and I absolutely love it!! your videos are so helpful and the way you explain everything makes me want to run in my kitchen and start cooking(lol) please keep those great recipes coming.👍👍👍
Solid babe! The fact that you are UK bred, and your recipe is bangon perfect, I tried it and my wife was jealous that I could match her cooking, I was too proud to tell her where I got my recipe from lol, showing off on the back off your recipe. Well done babe, and your voice? I shall not pass any comment
Great recipe. I have always wanted to cook fried rice, but never had a nice lesson as this. I may now proceed with excellent results guaranteed. Great job Ivonne 👍
