Jolloff rice
Method
2. Using a wooden spoon or a blender, mash the onion and shrimp into a paste, making sure all the shrimps are mashed.
3. Add in the garlic and lamb and fry, with the shrimp paste, over medium heat until the lamb is browned.
4. Add in chicken, rice, salt, stock and the whole hot chilli. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer until the rice is tender and the stock absorbed, around 15 minutes.
5. Meanwhile, heat the remaining corn oil in a heavy-based frying pan. Add in the sweet potato and fry until browned and tender. Remove and keep warm.
6. Add the red, yellow and green pepper and the spring onion to the pan and fry until just tender, around 2 minutes.
7. Mix the sweet potato and the pepper mixture into the cooked rice mixture, adding more liquid if necessary, cover and cook for 5 minutes more.
8. Serve the jolloff rice with whole, roasted fish or grilled meats.
