  • Foods to keep you warm in this cold weather

    {It’s foggy and cloudy weather these days, but hot food will boost your energy to keep you awake and productive the entire day.Hellofood, an online and mobile food delivery company, came up with four different dishes you’re sure to love: }

    {{1.Chionese noodles:}}

    Chinese noodle are really tasty, warm, and incredibly tender in your mouth.
    Noodles are part of the grains family and are a staple of entrees, side dishes and soups. Noodles contain the fiber and protein needed to fuel the body.

    Noodles can be prepared many different ways. Spicy fried noodles with vegetables or noodle soups with beef, chicken, or seafood are really tasty. In Rwanda, most people would call noodles AMAKARONI because they are similar. You can find different types of Chinese noodles on hellofood at Century Park Chinese, Tangren, and Pan China.

    {{3.Thai red curry:}}

    Ever heard about turmeric? No? It is the main ingredient in curry that gives it its red-ish orange color and is a strong anti inflammatory which cleans and restores livers.
    The red Thai curry is a popular Thai dish, which includes coconut milk, red curry paste, and meat or vegetables. Choose the spice level that fits your liking – extra spicy, medium, or mild. Compliment the dish with white or jasmine rice. You will not be disappointed at all! You can find this exotic dish at Zen oriental cuisine, Asian Kitchen, or Leelawadee Thai Bistro.

    {{3. Beef stew :}}

    This weather brings cravings for comfort food. Hearty casseroles and heavy stews make us feel warm from the inside out.

    When we suggest beef stew, we are talking about classic beef stew with tender meat that is cooked in a rich sauce with a medley of vegetables. The perfect accompaniment is a side of some steamed rice or baked potatoes. Pure heaven! You can try the beef stew from Grill and Barbeque or Simba.

    {{4. Chicken soup:}}

    Before chicken soup was for the soul, it was used to treat physical diseases of all types, even in the common cold! But why is chicken soup such a health-booster? The ingredients of chicken soup have several properties that make it useful in the treatment of certain illnesses.

    Chicken soup will warm your whole body, and there are so many variations to try! From a lemon twist to a spicy broth – don’t miss out on anything. YOLO!
    You can cook the soup yourself or give yourself a break and order from hellofood. We have the best restaurants in Kigali, and for chicken soup, check out House of Coffee, Tally Bakery Cafe, or Bamboo Rooftop.
