How To Prepare Jollof Pasta In Minutes
Ingredients
- Pasta
- groundnut oil
- Fresh tomatoes
- Tomato paste
- Onions
- Salt
- Water
- Seasoning – curry, thyme, paprika powder (any mixed spice of your choice)
- Fresh pepper
- Seasoning cubes.
Instructions
- Start your cooking by blending your tomatoes, onions, and pepper. If you prefer them pounded by hand, then, by all means, do so. A lot of people would opt for the blender anyway, majorly because it's faster. Once you're done with the blending, pour the paste out into a clean bowl and get your pasta started.
- Add some salt into a pan of boiling water and throw in your pasta. Leave it to cook till it's tender. Next, add some groundnut oil to a pan and add your sliced onions. Pour in your already blended tomato paste. Add your seasoning – curry, thyme, and any other spice of your choice, and add your seasoning cubes. Add some salt and stir together.
- Let it simmer for 7 minutes. In the meantime, drain your pasta (some people prefer to drain it twice) and add it to the already simmering tomato sauce.
- Mix everything together gently and allow it to cook till the pasta is tender. Your delicious Jollof pasta is ready to be served with any protein of your choice.
PRO TIP:
Don’t overcook your pasta or allow it to simmer for too long. Depending on the brand of pasta you choose to use, be very attentive to the timing. Also, always have a taste of your cooking to know what ingredient to add or not.
