Nairaland now has the "block" feature. If you have been on this thread long enough, you should be able to identify the irritants by now (including their alternate handles).

Click on their profile, click on the checkmark and "block this ". You won't see posts from that handle again for one week.

seriously 👀👀

Finally got around to it. Jamaican curry chicken with rice, salad and fried plantains.

Chop onions, green peppers, red peppers, garlic and Scotch bonnet peppers or any other very hot pepper.

Mix well with the chicken and season with salt, black pepper, seasoned salt, thyme (fresh thyme preferred ), Jamaican curry powder( my preferred brand is jcs reggae country, but Blue mountain a close second).

Let it sit for at least an hour

Heat whatever grease you like. (I used ghee this time)

Separate the chopped veg from the chicken, add some curry powder and saute on medium heat until soft.

Add the chicken, then water and/or coconut milk and bring to a boil. I like to add water to the bowl I marinated the chicken with and use it to clean all the marinade into the food.

Once it comes to a boil, add peeled chopped Irish potatoes if you want to, cover and lower to medium heat for 20-5 minutes or until the chicken is so tender it falls off the bone.

Eat 😄

Korea is too racist, outside of Seoul expect racism

Dui, zhe hen congming. 😏

Been overwhelmed so the first born made me breakfast for a change. Thank you son! 🥰

One of the easiest breakfasts to slap together so I eat it a lot. Trying to shift to smaller, more frequent portions. Will make curry chicken later today.

Post some Jamaicans...jerk chicken, veggies, sauced rice, strips...all the works. Been long you did that.

Will work curry chicken or maybe even curry shrimp into the rotation tomorrow or day after😄

GboyegaD:
Saw a recipe of no knead bread and decided to try it:

1. Was the dough mixed and kept in the fridge overnight. This was the proofed one as I forgot to take a picture last night.

2. The breads made.

No knead and it came out like that?? SHARE👏🏾RECIPE.👏🏾

ignant:
Radautoworks felt some type of way over my comment, based on my observation which some of your links further affirmed. It wasn't that serious.

Agreed. Now to look at more food pics. Who posting? 👀👀👀

Abeg dey post recipe when possible

Yesterday's breakfast.

French toast:
French bread or any bread that is not too sweet or soft.
One egg
Milk
Sugar, coffee creamer, pancake syrup or honey
Cinnamon powder
Pinch of salt
Tablespoon of flour

Blend everything together. If you have one of those bullet blenders, the quantity should be about where my finger is. Measurements didn't need to be exact, just to the taste that works for you.You want it to be foamy after you blend it. No blender, just hand mix, but the texture will be different. You can even use evaporated milk and water.

Slice your bread, put on tray in single layer and soak for at least ten minutes each side. If I to do it ahead of time, I prefer overnight for really fluffy French toast.

If you have an air fryer or oven, that is the best way for a really fluffy inside and a nice crispy outside. Otherwise, you can put a little butter in a pan and fry on medium heat. It won't be as fluffy though.

Put in a single layer in air fryer, pour any remaining liquid on top and air fry at 375 degrees for 16 minutes (flip halfway). If using oven, increase to 400 degrees. Don't forget to use a liner like foil or parchment paper so you don't have to clean😁

I have come to think that you probably do not rate/enjoy garri and soup, as much as you do other food you prepare, that is why your presentation of them here is seemingly uncharacteristically less-appealing.

Do not take my word for it. Look through your post history or gallery of the few times (I think 5) you have ed a pic of it.

Is it psychological for you? Maybe you do not consider garri as a staple, thus you see it as something you use to hold "belle", till you can prepare or eat something more fulfilling?

No, it's that when I some want to eat traditional I throw down and didn't care what it looks like. I just want to eat it🙄

Also, if I'm unfreezing something previously cooked (I cook soup in bulk and freeze), taking a picture is an after-thought. If I was cooking a new pot, I would do the same as any food. That's been in my freezer for months.

Case in point, I cooked for my family👇🏾

Sunday=Edikanyikang dinner

Went simple this week. Just chicken and stockfish.

RELAX. Things are not that deep.

When you're hungry, pretty doesn't matter. Eba and egusi

I'll skip any meal, but breakfast must be had! 😌

FiveFootNinja:
As much as I enjoy what others post here, GboyegaD hands down has the most satisfying pictures here. 🥹

Another person used to be hahn but I've not seen him around here lately.

I second this. He has a way with presentation😃

grandstar:


This is criminal

This shouldn't be posted here

🏃🏾‍♀️

Son cooked🤗 jerk chicken, rice and peas, dodo

Haven't been posting. Did spicy Cajun roasted turkey wings and gravy with Dirty Rice the other day. Was too lazy to include veg and told myself there was some in the rice 😆

lamboloosta:





Should one go for the 2016 Gle450 coupe or the 43 AMG.
I don't see any difference between these 2 cars, just the badging difference.

Any contribution on this please?

For prestige, AMG.

ABEG NA NAIJA YOU DEY COOK THIS ONE?

I DEY ASK CAUSE I WAN GET IDEA WHERE U GET THE MEAT...

Lol, in Naija I get my meat from Artisan. I've dropped their info here before. This is just the first page. Whatsapp them for full pricelist. They make their own sausages,etc and they are so good!

StillDtruth:


Insurance write off does not mean mechanical write off as Nigerians have proven.I am sure that if not for profits from continuous sale and the need to control the world, car manufacturers would have come to build bases here in Nigeria in joy of seeing their insurance write offs being put back together and joyfully driven off, traveling from Lagos to Abuja.

An insurance write-off is triggered when the cost to repair the damage to the car exceeds the value of the car itself. It may be body damage or mechanical damage. It is also automatically triggered if there is damage to the frame/chassis, regardless of cost, as that is now a safety issue. First-hand knowledge handling insurance repairs in Texas.

RichIgboBoy:
lol, Nigerians won’t learn, even in USA some of them revert to 20w50 during summer and on high mileage vehicles above 100k miles

Please stop saying this because it is false. I have owned mechanic shops both in Nigeria and the USA. NO ONE does that.

Babatundehy:


Those claiming to know more than the manufacturer are clearly stupid, it is like arguing about the order of alphabets.
I am going to assume you were handed 20W-50 engine oil when you went to a store or a mechanic and said you want to change your car engine oil, by my two big balls, many oil sellers at 'garages' and even road side mechanics will do the same, the last time i was at Ilesha garage in Akure to change my handbrake lining (a family member keeps leaving it on while driving), sitting at the parts seller's shop, about three people came to ask for oil to service their car, they were all handed 20w-50, they paid and left.
Oh well, this is how it is with many people, they don't have the knowledge about oils, check your engine cap and have a look at the oil viscosity written on it by your manufacturer, that's what you should use whether you live in Antarctica or Death valley, USA, now you might change to the manufacturer's oil grade and notice your car smoking shortly after or even immediately, if this is the case then you must fall back to your 20W-50, this is because the engine is high mileage and or has been abused for quite a long time (with very thick 20W-50).
Some change back to the manufacturer's recommended grade and vehicle doesn't smoke or starts making weird sounds, I'll advise you don't fall back anyways, car is old (16 years) and you have abused it for two years, keep it that way so you don't draw much nearer the consequences of using very thick oils over the years.

Couldn't have written this better myself👏🏾

RichIgboBoy:
say what you know o bro, I can comfortably travel with my car to Abuja at night, no check engine light. My bro was using same oil and was frequently traveling to east with his car. Even for over heating, people that has suffered it more in Nigeria are those using thin oils, you can do your research. I sha understand that you are a business man
My thermostat and every other factory fittings still intact tho. Na just the oil dey fear me on how to revert back to factory recommendation. My point is you can’t completely downplay the 20w50 oil which has been serving people over the years without issue.

2cribz:
Will u keep quiet,ole. Which difficulties and slow flow at cold start in nigeria. Does nigeria. Cold temperature freeze a glass of water by 4am.idiot.get lost,u fake oil seller. If your car falls between 1995 till 2010 model.20w50 is a welcome,just that every 4months,u go need change am

"Cold start" means first start when the engine is cold (typically first thing in the morning after sitting overnight, or during the day after it hasn't been driven for hours and the engine is no longer warm) , not the temperature outside 🙆🏾🤣

This is why you sometimes have to leave the car at the mechanic overnight to cold start it for issues that only happen at cold start smh.

Wasky101:
Since there are a lot of food enthusiasts here I thought to share this here and see how people react to it over opening an entire thread.
I guess we all know this food critic Opeyemi.

Somewhere in my head I am often wondering what qualifies him as a food critic.
You must be a master of an art before you qualify to critic it.
I assume you must have gone to a culinary school, worked or owned a restaurant.
Cooked specific dishes over a million times before you can qualify to be a critic.

How can someone who can't cook afang soup for example critic the soup. How do you even know what to look out for

Can I just wake up someday and declare that i am a doctor. Even if u had gone to medical school, you'd still have to do housemanship etc before you are qualified.

But in this generation anything goes, especially on the social media space.

To critic food is a little different. You don't have to be able to cook food to appreciate it or have a refined pallet. It might actually be better if your don't know how to make the dish so biases about level of difficulty don't influence opinion of the actual dish.

That being said, I have no idea who that Opeyemi person is, but there are way too many food critics online who just try leverage their followings to extort for good reviews.

erico2k2:

No problem

Emajek at radautoworks com is in charge of fleet and franchising. His name is Emmanuel.

erico2k2:

This is very correct ,Imagine someone buying a N30M car and a mechanic convince them to remove the thermostat and use N20k Oil to service the car, nor be Juju be that. ;DIt is well, how's the Biz running, you guys need to open a branch in PH ASAP
