Jollof Rice Recipes | Videos

Jollof Rice is a popular dish native to West Africa but also prepared in other countries. There is still an ongoing battle about who makes the best Jollof between Nigeria, Ghana, and Senegal. It is typically made with long-grain rice, tomatoes, pepper, onions, and spices in one pot.

In Nigeria, it is a delicacy present at nearly every wedding, birthday ceremony, and even burials.
