In the kitchen with Spice

Known for her high-pitched vocals and her lyrical skills, we were uncertain if STAR of The Month, Spice, could spice up the kitchen. However, that uncertainty was answered recently as she along with her fiancE Nicholas, proved that as a family they could cope on their own without hired chefs.

The deejay ushered us into her kitchen where she had already taken out her vegetables. She then jokingly complained about our tardiness before proceeding to cut up her chicken, while simultaneously answering questions from the news team.

We were particularly impressed with the ease at which she was able to multitask as well as the camaraderie she shared with her fiancE as he struggled to light the stove with a near empty box of matches. He also assisted with the cleaning of the vegetables, Spice highlighting that she likes a man who can help himself in the kitchen.

After several tries, the stove was lit and Spice proceeded to cook a solid meal comprised of pasta, curried chicken, broccoli, tomatoes, carrots and white rice. According to the deejay, she is often busy and the dish is easy to prepare.

PROPER DIET

She also noted that she was trying to maintain a proper diet which explains why her meal had a variation of vegetables.

"I love curry chicken and rice. But my favourite is ackee and salt fish even with the chicken back. I love white rice, but I know that the brown rice and the brown bread is healthier. I grew up on white rice and have a preference for it so whenever I am on a diet, it's difficult for me to stay committed because it doesn't taste the same. With this diet I am on, I am trying hard to cut out the rice and the dumplings," she said.

The artiste also disclosed that she was subscribing to a strict diet because she wants to be ready for carnival and her birthday celebration on August 6, 2016.

After waiting for little over an hour, the cooking process was completed and Spice and Nicholas served The STAR team a tasty meal complemented with some chilled sorrel juice. Based on the results of her cooking, it is clear that Spice is well deserving of a name, which alludes to one of the variations of cooking.
