Hello hivers, welcome to my blog. On today's episode of creative Sunday, I'll be preparing vegetable soup and rice.
I so much love vegetable soup because it can be eaten with anything. Rice, beans, yam, swallow, plantain, potato, you just name it.
Vegetable soup can be prepared in different ways. Either fish vegetable sauce, chicken vegetable sauce or meat vegetable sauce. We also have sea food vegetable sauce and all these sauce or soup can be taken with anything you want.
For mine, I prepared just plain vegetables soup. Here's the ingredients I used: Vegetable Tomato and pepper Maggi Spices Crayfish Salt Oil Onions Snail (you can use any protein of your choice) Iru, English name is locust beans( this is optional, I didn't have so I prepared mine like that). But if you truly want to enjoy your vegetable soup and take the taste to another level, then add iru, not just any iru, good one and believe me, you'll want to always cook with iru.
PROCEDURE I dried my pot, then added oil and allowed to heat a little. I then added my snail and fried for a bit( I don't like boiled snail). After frying, I went ahead to add my roughly blended tomatoes, pepper and onion.
After frying them for a few minutes, I added my spices( Maggi, salt and lasor seasoning). I just bought this lasor seasoning and I love it, I can use it to cook without adding Maggi if I want. After adding my spice, I covered and allowed to boil for 10 minutes.
After boiling I added my vegetable, stirred and allowed to simmer for 5 minutes then it was ready. I served it with my rice and enjoyed. Tomorrow, I will be eating it with spaghetti and next day I'll take it with yam.
