One of the best things about the weekend is finally having time to cook that special dish we can’t squeeze into busy weekdays. Today, we’re diving into a mouthwatering recipe: vegetable rice with sautéed veggies, a spicy red sauce, and perfectly grilled tilapia—a flavorful creation shared by VaMidanu.
Step 1: Marinate the Fish for Maximum Flavor
Start by blending onions, garlic, ginger, green peppers, star anise, bay leaf, seasoning cube, salt, and groundnut paste into a rich marinade. According to VaMidanu, this step is crucial for enhancing the taste of the tilapia. Drizzle some vegetable oil over the fish and let it soak up the flavors before grilling to perfection.
Step 2: Prepare the Vegetable Rice
In a pan, sauté onions, green peppers, garlic, carrots, and green bell peppers until fragrant. Add washed rice and stir-fry for a few minutes before pouring in water to cook.
Step 3: Make the Spicy Red Sauce
While the rice is cooking, whip up a deliciously spicy red sauce to bring everything together.
Once all the components are ready, plate your meal beautifully and enjoy a well-deserved weekend feast.
