making Greek yogurt at home is quite straightforward! Here's a basic recipe and procedure:

# # # Ingredients:
- 4 cups of whole milk
- 2 tablespoons of plain yogurt (as a starter culture)
- Cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel
- Cooking thermometer
- A pot for heating milk
- A bowl for mixing

# # # Procedure:
1. **Heat the Milk**: Pour the milk into a pot and heat it over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Use a cooking thermometer to monitor the temperature. Heat the milk until it reaches around 180°F (82°C). This helps to kill any unwanted bacteria.

2. **Cool the Milk**: Allow the milk to cool down to about 110°F (43°C). You can speed up this process by placing the pot in a cold water bath.

3. **Mix in Yogurt**: In a separate bowl, mix the plain yogurt with a small amount of the warmed milk. Ensure the yogurt is well incorporated and smooth. Then pour this mixture back into the pot of warm milk and stir gently.

4. **Fermentation**: Cover the pot with a lid or a clean kitchen towel and place it in a warm spot. You can use an oven with the light on, a yogurt maker, or simply wrap the pot in towels to keep it warm. Let it sit and ferment for about 8-12 hours. The longer it ferments, the tangier it will become.

5. **Straining**: Once the yogurt has thickened, line a colander with cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel and place it over a bowl. Pour the yogurt into the lined colander. Let it strain for 2-3 hours or longer, depending on how thick you want your Greek yogurt to be. The longer it strains, the thicker it becomes.

6. **Store or Serve**: Transfer the strained yogurt to a container and store it in the refrigerator. Your homemade Greek yogurt is ready to enjoy!

Remember, the quality of your yogurt starter (the plain yogurt used) can impact the final taste and texture of your homemade Greek yogurt. Also, experiment with the fermentation time and straining duration to achieve your preferred thickness and tanginess. Enjoy your delicious homemade Greek yogurt!

2. **Blending:**
- Drain the soaked beans and transfer them into a blender or food processor.
- Add the chopped onion, red bell peppers, scotch bonnet peppers, crayfish (if using), bouillon cubes, and a little water. Blend to a smooth paste. Add more water if needed, but avoid making the mixture too watery.

3. **Mixing and Seasoning:**

- Add the vegetable oil, chopped vegetables (if using), and salt to taste. Mix well to incorporate all the ingredients evenly.

4. **Wrapping:**

- Spoon the Moi Moi mixture into the leaves or foil, filling each about three-quarters full. Leave some room for expansion during cooking.

5. **Steaming:**
- Place the wrapped Moi Moi in a pot or steamer, stacking them if needed.
- Add water to the pot, enough to reach just below the level of the Moi Moi wraps. Cover the pot.

6. **Cooking:**
- Steam the Moi Moi on medium heat for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Check the water level periodically during cooking and add more if necessary to prevent burning.

7. **Cooling and Serving:**
- Once cooked, allow the Moi Moi to cool slightly before unwrapping.
- Serve your delicious Nigerian Moi Moi as a side dish or a main meal, often enjoyed with rice, pap (akamu), or eaten alone.

- Add the diced bell pepper and peas to the skillet. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes until they begin to soften.
- Add the cooked rice to the skillet. Use a spatula to break up any clumps and mix everything together evenly.

4. **Seasoning:**
- Drizzle the soy sauce over the rice and continue to stir-fry, ensuring the sauce is distributed evenly.
- If using curry powder, sprinkle it over the rice and mix well to incorporate the flavors.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste. Adjust the seasoning and soy sauce according to your preference.

5. **Adding Pineapple:**
- Finally, add the pineapple chunks to the skillet. Gently fold them into the rice mixture, allowing the pineapple to heat through for about a minute or two.

6. **Garnish and Serve:**
- Once everything is heated through and well combined, remove the skillet from the heat.
- Garnish with chopped spring onions or cilantro, if desired, for added freshness.

7. **Serve:** Pineapple fried rice can be served hot as a main dish or as a side dish to complement other Asian-inspired meals.

Enjoy your homemade pineapple fried rice! Feel free to customize by adding other vegetables or nuts for extra flavor and texture.

28/11/2023

Coconuts offer various benefits and possess numerous properties that contribute to overall health and wellness. Here are some of the key benefits and properties of coconuts:

1. **Nutrient-Rich:** Coconuts are packed with essential nutrients such as vitamins C, E, B1, B3, B5, and B6. They also contain minerals like iron, selenium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus.

2. **Healthy Fats:** Coconuts are a rich source of healthy fats, particularly medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), which are easily digested and can be quickly converted into energy.

3. **Antioxidant Properties:** They contain antioxidants like phenolic compounds and flavonoids, which help protect the body from oxidative stress and reduce the risk of chronic diseases.

4. **Boosts Heart Health:** The high content of lauric acid in coconuts may help increase levels of good HDL cholesterol and lower levels of bad LDL cholesterol, potentially reducing the risk of heart disease.

5. **Supports Digestive Health:** The fiber content in coconut supports healthy digestion and can aid in preventing constipation.

6. **Hydration and Electrolyte Balance:** Coconut water, found inside young coconuts, is a natural electrolyte-rich drink that helps maintain proper hydration levels and replenishes electrolytes lost during physical activities.

7. **Skin and Hair Care:** Coconut oil is widely used in skincare and haircare products due to its moisturizing properties. It helps hydrate the skin, reduces inflammation, and can act as a natural conditioner for hair.

8. **Anti-Inflammatory Properties:** Certain compounds in coconuts exhibit anti-inflammatory effects, potentially aiding in reducing inflammation in the body.

9. **Weight Management:** MCTs in coconuts might aid in weight management by increasing feelings of fullness and boosting calorie burning.

10. **Antimicrobial and Antifungal:** The lauric acid in coconuts has antimicrobial properties, potentially fighting off harmful bacteria, viruses, and fungi.

11. **Brain Health:** Some studies suggest that MCTs in coconuts may support brain health by providing an alternative energy source and potentially improving cognitive function.

Incorporating coconuts, coconut oil, or coconut water into your diet or skincare routine can offer numerous health benefits, but moderation is key due to their high-fat content. Always consult a healthcare professional before making significant dietary changes.

**Nigerian Party Jollof Rice:**

**Ingredients:**

For the Jollof Rice:
- 3 cups of parboiled long-grain rice
- 2 cups of tomato stew/sauce

- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 green bell pepper, diced
- 2-3 tablespoons of tomato paste
- 2-3 tablespoons of vegetable oil
- 2 teaspoons of thyme
- 2 teaspoons of curry powder
- 2 teaspoons of smoked or regular paprika
- 2 teaspoons of dried thyme
- Salt to taste
- Optional: 1 teaspoon of cayenne pepper for heat (adjust to taste)

**Instructions:**

1. Heat the vegetable oil in a pot, add chopped onions, and sauté until translucent.

2. Add the diced red and green bell peppers. Sauté for a few minutes until they soften.

3. Stir in the tomato paste and allow it to fry for a couple of minutes, stirring frequently.

4. Add the tomato stew/sauce and combine well with the pepper mix. Let it cook for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. Season with thyme, curry powder, paprika, dried thyme, salt, and cayenne pepper if using. Stir to combine.

6. Add the parboiled rice to the stew mixture and stir thoroughly, ensuring the rice is well coated with the sauce.

7. Pour in the chicken or vegetable broth, ensuring it covers the rice by about half an inch. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the liquid (about 25-30 minutes).

8. Check for doneness and fluff the rice with a fork. Adjust seasoning if needed. If the rice is still firm but the liquid has dried up, add a little more broth or water and continue to cook until done.

- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 2-3 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon of thyme
- 1 teaspoon of curry powder
- 1 teaspoon of paprika
- 1 teaspoon of dried mixed herbs
- Salt and black pepper to taste

**Instructions:**

1. Clean the chicken pieces thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel.

2. In a bowl, combine the tomato paste, vegetable oil, chopped onion, minced garlic, thyme, curry powder, paprika, dried herbs, salt, and black pepper to form a marinade.

3. Rub the marinade all over the chicken pieces, ensuring they are well coated. You can leave it to marinate for at least an hour or overnight in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.

4. Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C) or use a grill/barbecue.

5. Place the chicken pieces on a baking tray lined with foil or on a greased grill. Bake or grill the chicken until golden brown and fully cooked, usually around 30-40 minutes depending on the size and type of chicken pieces. Flip halfway through for even cooking.

Serve the flavorful Nigerian Party Jollof Rice and Chicken together for a delicious and vibrant meal at your next gathering or celebration! Adjust spices and seasonings according to personal preference.

-Break the coconut and pry out the
flesh.
-Blend the coconut flesh with about
