COOKING METHOD
Cooking the Rice
Wash and Rinse the rice until water runs clear.
Boil water in a pot then add salt, pepper, powdered curry, knor cube, chopped onions and butter then add the already washed rice and cook rice untill it's done — not too soft.
Then set it aside

Combine with Rice
Add the cooked rice into the frying pan in batches with the already fried veggies and Mix gently so the grains don’t break. Keep frying for 3–4minutes on medium heat.

And because the chicken is already roasted, to make it more tasty, I added grinded fresh pepper, small vegetable oil, small salt and steamed it and it came out good
