Start by discussing the dish, Moksi Alesi, which is a one-pot dish for using leftover meats and rice.

Cook the meat in a pan and cut it into small pieces once cooked.

Add cooked water to the pan to help it simmer and then drain any excess moisture.

Heat palm oil in a pan and add garlic and onion.

Add shrimp and smoked chicken to the pan, cutting the chicken into pieces for garnish.

Add 1 teaspoon of five spice powder and a bit of black pepper to the mixture.

Add the vegetables to the pan and cover it to let it cook while stirring occasionally.

Rinse 400 grams of rice several times to wash off the starch.

Shake the coconut milk cans before use to mix well.

Add a piece of lemongrass for extra flavor and a coloring agent if desired.
