My sister cooked jollof using your guidelines and it came out AMAZING! Our whole Najia household was in disbelief and thought she purchased it from the restaurant! It was that good!
@@adzz4707 better to cook it without covering untill the rice soaked up the water, then once soaked cover it with foil and cook on low for 10 mins, turn off the heat and leave for 15-20 mins to steam slowly
I'm an Indian... Ihv been hearing alot about jolloff rice.. And have seen numerable recipes... But today I decided to make this finally... And trust me sister kiki this turned about amazing.... Thanks and God bless
Just the way i do it but she skipped the part where she informs everyone that when you cover the pot with foil make sure you turn down the heat to the lowest setting to avoid the jollof rice burning.
I came here because I’m trying to prove to my Girlfriend/ future wife (hopefully) that I can cook when she’s heavily pregnant in the future with our baby 😁, y’ll wish me luck 🍀.
I learned to make party jolof with this recipe for my Nigerian husband, he and our son love it! It’s quite difficult to cook a Nigerian recipe being European when you’ve never tasted it properly before and don’t know if it tastes fine when you’re cooking so this was super helpful!
Same here although I have a lot of experience travelling etc. it's a very good authentic recipe. Only difference is I also add ginger garlic and smoked paprika to get that Smokey flavour
At 2:55 Pause! Do not cover with foil yet else it will burn! It’s better to cook it without covering until the rice has soaked up the water, then once soaked cover it with foil and cook on low for 10 mins, turn off the heat and leave for 15-20 mins to steam slowly.
WHATT?!? I’m 15 and this is my first time cooking Jollof rice alone and I used this recipe. It tasted exactly like the party Jollof rice they used to cook in Salah back when I was in Nigeria 😍😍😍 Thank you so much I’m definitely going to use this recipe multiple times.
My son asked me to make this and watching this video for the first time, I KNEW it was going to be good. can’t believe I hadn’t heard of this! Made it tonight and 10/10! Think in this Pakistani house it’ll be one of our new favorites ❤️
It's month of Ramadan and me and my family been fasting. I'm making this now for later to break our fast. Can't wait ☺️ Just to let anyone willing to try this. It is AMAZING my family loved it. Thank you so much for this recipe
I'm From the Caribbean and I have a new found Respect for anyone who can cook this rice! It took me longer than in the video, but the amount of time it takes is Alot! The amount of oil used is very much out of my comfort zone! but the taste is Amazing. Making Rice & Peas is lite work compared to this, I take my hat off to you my African people
Thank you aunty.i have watched so many and none have showed me this way.its the best.i have worked with Nigerians a long time and love the food.i make pounded yam and assorted meat,egusi soup,pepper soup.this is all I need now.thank you.amazing
@@Kikifoodies I just struggled my way through some today, wish I had watched you first. Came out with good flavor slightly too moist, but tasty. My Cameroonian friend gave me the thumbs up. Next time ill soak my rice less so I can keep my pot on the fire a little longer with out making my rice turn to mush. Great video and I like that you left quantities of ingredients in the description box.
I remember years ago my Nigerian co-worker had this for lunch all the time. I eventually tried it and was like gonna ask her out just so she could cook this for me all the time.
It came out so perfectly! My Nigerian husband said I could literally make it for our baby shower. It’s classic party rice, after you cover with foil, cook at the LOWEST heat setting, afterwards, fluff it/ mix it well then turn of heat, leave it to rest with the lid on for about 10 mins. So good.
This jellof rice is the best jellof rice I’ve ever made from following other RUclipsrs , the instructions are so organised and easy to follow and thank for labelling the type of rice used been searching for ever .
I'm a 17 year old (female) just trying to cook for the first time. my mum has been trying to get me to cook so i wanted to surprise her with this and im so happy it came out very well thank you so much for this recipe
If this is how Nigerian jollof is made then i think its the same as Ghanaian cox in Ghana we use the exact process and ingredients naija and Gh we are fam ❤
Wow! I just made this for my extended family, They went crazy over this rice! They asked what it was and I told them it was an Ancient African recipe, then I gave them info on your website! It’s soooo good! 😋
I'm so excited to not only Make Jollof rice for the 1st time ever but to taste it for the 1st time ever!!! I'm a somewhat adventurous food tasting person... I have 3 neighbors who live in the upstairs apartment of the house and I'm in the bottom apartment in the house. They are 3 Nigerian young adults who came to Canada to go to university. They have known each other most of their lives and they get along well. I just moved in 10 months ago and so far that I have noticed they have made jollof rice 3 times and every time I have to ask them what they are making because it smells so amazingly delicious and I just have to know so I can try making it myself. They finally gave me their recipe after I had asked them for a suggested recipe online... I have all but one ingredient "all purpose seasoning", also I can't eat hot spicy foods so I'm leaving out the hot peppers and they said it would be fine.. Do you know what is in all purpose seasoning? I didn't see it in the spices section of the grocery store... The recipe they gave me is called " how to make jollof rice in 5 easy steps" by someone named Evi and the country of origin is obviously Nigeria....not Ghana as I know that there is a rivalry between them as to who invented the recipe and who makes it better..lol If you have any advice or helpful suggestions I'd be interested in recieving them... I'm fairly certain that it's going to taste as amazing as it smells cooking...lol after reading the ingredients I'm positive that I'm going to enjoy it immensely.... mmm lol I'm so excited to try something new...
Tricia Barr hey Tricia, All purpose seasoning typically refers to Bullion cube, I.e knorr cube or maggi cube. You typically won’t find it in most stores but you’ll be able to find it online and in Nigerian stores. If you follow this recipe so the book, be rest assured you’ll get an amazing Nigerian Jollof rice. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask. I’ll expect your first ever jollof feedback hopefully soon.
@@Kikifoodies if you have any African store around you you can find it there ... but if you can't find it ... simply use other seasons like curry, theme. Maggi, and all it will still come out good ..

My goodness followed your recipe to make for my husband’s college for eid, they kept calling to say thank you. I followed every step except bay leaf couldn’t find. Thank you
Thank you for this recipe! It was my 3rd time trying jollof rice but the first time it actually tasted like jollof rice. My Nigerian husband was really happy and impressed. He said it’s even more authentic than the one we always order. Your recipe was a lot easier to follow through than others that I’ve tried. 👍🏻
Thank you @kikifoodies for this awesome video & recipe. I can finally cook jollof rice! This has been the only 9ja food I don’t venture to make cos it never tastes right to me when I cook it. I made it tonight and it was “priceless” (according to my food critic 9 yr old daughter 🤣🤣). My children loved it so much they asked for seconds. Thank you thank you.
After reading Americanah by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie I just had to check this dish out. And after watching this video, I’m going straight to the kitchen! Wow, it looks delicious!
I tried your format, I did it for 20 people, and they were all asking if I used firewood in cooking it. I used gas and it tastes like party Jollof. Thank you for sharing, now my Jollof cooking skill is top-notch.
I am recently obsessed with learning how to make Nigerian cuisine. I can't wait to make this dish very, very soon. I love your content btw, thank you 🙏❤
As an English person who knows nothing about African cooking, the jollof was banging from this recipe! So simple 😂 My African colleague loved it, know how honest she is loooll! For ppl like me (my first time making!) Use tolly boy long grain easy cook, it's easy to cook with lol

Hi there 👋. I cook my Jollof a bit different I have a video on my channel. Would you like to visit and give me your thoughts? I’ll really appreciate it 🙏🏾
2:22 that sauce alone is so delicious. It can be enjoyed with everything Oh and also, in the end of the pot there will always be some burnt rice crust, that is so damn delicious
This recipe looks very tasty! I love when people use alot of spices to make it. curry powder is my favorite one. I made my own version if jollof rice, except i did it in the instant pot!
I followed this recipe to a T ! It tasted just how my aunties make it. I loved it and it tasted amazing, but I may have used tooo big of a scotch bonnet pepper and my family was complaining about the heat (MORE FOR ME😅)
I made this on Saturday for Easter after observing Good Friday. It turned out perfect. It was not too spicy or pepperish. Just the right amount. I also added goat 🐐 meat in it. I packed it in three glass bowls and I have eaten it yesterday and on Saturday. When I microwave it the flavor comes out and it is smelling all over the kitchen. I even left it out till the next day and the flavor was still there and never spoiled. I am about to have some today with goat 🐐 lean meat. Thanks to kikifoodies. Your recipe is great . It is only four mins and 12 seconds and can be watched over and over again. Also no talking on the video.
@@andrianaakukalia2727 Thank you :D There is a lot of similarity between NG and Indian cooking. I try both because I am very passionate about cooking and also making medical discoveries.
I am a South African who learned to make jollof and I must say I am a pro now because I got tired of always having to buy it in Nigerian restaurants for the whole family. It is now our Sunday meals.
Your comment gat me laughing lol . You can’t learn online . Cooking also depends on your hands . You can use the same ingredients but won’t taste the same too .
My mom Jamaican an dad african an me American. Im so blessed N I want to cook from the cultures my mom an dad from. I don't forget my roots an also my own culture. I will be so lit I promise
I have made this recipe so many times and I always watch this video just to make sure I have all the ingredients needed. Thank you for making this video, It’s simple and easy to follow. My Jollof comes out delicious and Moist.
I'm South African and my husband is Kenyan we loooooved jollof rice I would make it so so much! Then one day as I was eating I starting throwing up🤮 I couldn't understand why this jollof was making me throw up yet I love it... turned out I was pregnant 🤦🏾♀️ that child from that pregnancy never ever allowed me to eat jollof rice ever since. 4 years since I've eaten this tasty dish😪 I don't know what my child done to my body that I dont wish for it
This is a wonderful tutorial! I used to get confused at the last part. How long it takes for it to now cook. I live he precise this one is❤❤❤. God bless
In Haitian I watched a lot of African movies I always hear them talking about jollof rice I had to come on RUclips to find out how to make it wish me luck loll
Just got curious about what this jollof rice is. So i made it just now and followed your recipe and i must say it tantalising my tongue😅🤩 now i know why people love jollof rice. Thank you so much for the recipe 🙌🏽🫶🏽❤️ easy to follow and very very very tasty❤ bless you 🙌🏽 highly recommend everyone to try this recipe out

👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽 love to hear it! Hope it turned out great
If my dad saw this comment he would say "na wow look at your mate tryna to learn our ways but you no you make white rice"
For anyone who wants to try this recipe, when the pot gets covered with foil, put the heat on the lowest setting, otherwise your food will burn.
But do you cook for the same time (25 minutes )
@@adzz4707 better to cook it without covering untill the rice soaked up the water, then once soaked cover it with foil and cook on low for 10 mins, turn off the heat and leave for 15-20 mins to steam slowly

Could I please ask exactly how much rice did you use? In the description it says for 8 cups of rice, does that mean 4 cups of dry rice?
@fkadada8252 hmm my dear i used a standard cup, about three cups… but not the American measurements of cups, sort of like a mug, 3 mugs of rice
I don’t know if anyone cares but I made a huge pot of this rice for thanksgiving and the compliments were never ending lol

See authentic jollof nah
NIGERIAN jollof rice....forever the BEST
Senegalese and Gambian jolof are the best by miles. No debate
The color of the rice is what drew me to this recipe. Seems like it will be full or flavor.

I'm Jamaican, And a VERY picky eater, I've never tried African food, but this looks ELITE KINGS AND QUEENS 😍😍
you are in for a treat
Goody try it. Ting tun up. I started my journey with this and if you eat meat,fried beef stew. Or fried fish stew.
Jamaican here too... intend on try this... looks real interesting.
It's very good. You should try make it. I watch the video and made it for myself n nieces and it came out pretty good n delicious.
I cooked this for my Indian family today and they all loved it! 😁
Made the rice - it came out perfect! It's even better the next day. Pro tip: ADD BUTTER!!! It takes the flavor to a whole new level.
Thanks for the review!
May I know at which step should the butter be added?
@@Ira.1 the very very end! Once the rice is cooked (or almost cooked), add in a few tablespoons and stir it in.
Butter makes it so sumptuous 😊

If this is how Nigerian jollof is made then i think its the same as Ghanaian cox in Ghana we use the exact process and ingredients naija and Gh we are fam ❤
Well I was wondering the same but then the Ghanaian version I saw has veggies and meat cooked with it

Wow!!I'm from Rwanda but I like Nigerian food
2:22 that sauce alone is so delicious. It can be enjoyed with everything
Oh and also, in the end of the pot there will always be some burnt rice crust, that is so damn delicious
That's my favorite.
that bit is called ''bottom pot'', people fight over it! haha
FR! My family would argue as to who was getting that part of the rice; the best bit! Lol!
So your telling me I’ve been paying $15 for this and I could make it myself 😩 thank you for this❤️
This recipe looks very tasty! I love when people use alot of spices to make it. curry powder is my favorite one. I made my own version if jollof rice, except i did it in the instant pot!
Thank you!!! My son is half African and we just made this.., thank you so much xx
I followed this recipe to a T ! It tasted just how my aunties make it. I loved it and it tasted amazing, but I may have used tooo big of a scotch bonnet pepper and my family was complaining about the heat (MORE FOR ME😅)
My 14 year old daughter used your recipe and it came out very delicious
I love Nigerian jollof rice more then Turkish rice really 😍
Wow! Thank you. I would love to try Turkish food one day. I feel I will love it. 😁
You can always make Turkish rice the Nigeria way with less liquid
Your rice is the best my kids looooove it. Thank you so much. It goes great with everything.
I know what I am gonna cook for my hubby tonight ❤️😁😋
I made this on Saturday for Easter after observing Good Friday. It turned out perfect. It was not too spicy or pepperish. Just the right amount. I also added goat 🐐 meat in it. I packed it in three glass bowls and I have eaten it yesterday and on Saturday. When I microwave it the flavor comes out and it is smelling all over the kitchen. I even left it out till the next day and the flavor was still there and never spoiled. I am about to have some today with goat 🐐 lean meat. Thanks to kikifoodies. Your recipe is great . It is only four mins and 12 seconds and can be watched over and over again. Also no talking on the video.
Thanks for this wonderful recipe. I cooked Jollof as well :-) My wife loves it. One of friend is called Kiki. We are from India. Namaste.
Wow am a Nigerian and I looooove indians
@@andrianaakukalia2727 Thank you :D There is a lot of similarity between NG and Indian cooking. I try both because I am very passionate about cooking and also making medical discoveries.
@@DrBrunoRecipes You can say that again. Both country people love SPICES. Lol
i love indian food and culture as a nigerian

I am a South African who learned to make jollof and I must say I am a pro now because I got tired of always having to buy it in Nigerian restaurants for the whole family.
