    Bcs am still in the village so today I said I will cook this jellof rice, I went to the market and was able to grab few items available bcs there's no bay leaf, no white pepper, no bell peppers and no paprika powder. I used firewood #localfire method to roast my own tomatoes, onion, garlic, fresh paprika, fresh peppers and believe you me it came out perfect like oven roast. I pound it in motta smooth and cooked my jellof rice and it's super delicious
    I used carrots and cabbage and onion on my own. The rice was devoured by brother in-law, mother in-law and neighbors and we all enjoyed it
    My happiness is that I achieved the roasting part with firewood and it came out so well with good aroma

    TIP!...to prevent bake on stains on the baking pan, I would lay aluminum foil down, spray a bit of oil on it. For the garlic, to prevent garlic skin from getting into the blender and have to pick them out, squeeze out the roasted garlic in a bowl and then add to the blender. Looks yummy! and will try this sometime, without the garlic though LOL! Thank you! for sharing this.
