I am Italian and I love cooking, my boyfriend is Nigerian, he appreciates my cuisine and my food but sometimes he misses the Nigerian food, so I bought all the ingredients and I made him jollof rice with this recipe, turned out amazing, he even brought to work and was very proud of me🥰 Thank you for sharing this recipe, I will definitely make it again.

[@MiebiBrown]

For someone who is just starting to learn how to cook, your a GREAT help. I know that when i watch this video, a few more times, i will be a pro at cooking jollof rice. Wish me luck.

[@staceysmith3632]

Thank you for this recipe. My husband is Nigerian. I made this dish to surprise him. It turned out great.😊

[@ritavaldovinos6120]

I tried making jollof rice using your instructions. I almost got it right. I seasoned it correctly. I slightly burned it because I had the temperature on too high in the beginning. My boyfriend used to work at a restaurant in Lagos. We went to eat at a Nigerian restaurant here in Chicago. We had chicken, jollof rice, and plantains. They gave us way too much food to eat. The custom is to take the food home in a to go container.. He said he did not want to take home his leftovers because he cooks better. He came over to my place to make a small pot of jollof rice. His rice did taste better than the restaurant's. I mastered chicken and plantains already. I am Mexican-American. I know how to make traditional Mexican food. Our rice is similar except yours has more spices. I appreciate your cooking tutorial. I really need to keep practicing.

[@jenniferpatino-lopez8093]

I myself is also Mexican with a Nigerian husband ❤ I learned all my Nigerian dishes from her and also used her recipes when we were in Nigeria when cooking for his family. The were very much surprised and shocked as well the absolutely loved the food. I only use joyful recipes for they are the absolute best ❤

[@eatingwithselina8482]

I am African and LOVE Mexican food because here in Texas it’s everywhere. It’s funny that I have made both but I still prefer Mexican rice. Yes it’s simpler but I just like the taste also. I make it as a one pot meal with chicken thighs that I brown first before frying the washed rice in that same pan and adding my tomato mixture (I use ground annato as a main spice and other spices too) I bake the whole thing and it comes out perfect, the baking is a fool proof way to ensure even cooking with either Mexican or Jollof. I serve my baked Mexican rice with pinto beans, tortillas, fajitas, chips and homemade guacamole! 🤤🤤 so delicious

[@mag1714]

My rice has been cooking for 5mins. Really hoping it comes out perfectly 🥰 Edit: made this. It was perfect individual grains of rice. Great flavor. My family loved it

[@nolslifestyle3923]

Cooked the jolloff rice yesterday... taste much nicer today.. I love it.. my daughter says momma it takes like the one we buy from the Nigerian restaurants

[@matthanialouis3440]

Amazing Recipe! I watched this video over and over for some time now and finally decided to make it last night. It did not disappoint at all. I am Haitian and my family looked at the "Red Rice" like I was crazy lol! Only if they knew and were open to trying new things. Currently looking for dishes to enjoy and add into my routine. By the way, I have eaten Jollof rice before but this was my first time making it myself. You really made it easy to follow. Thanks!

[@alexesperez2656]

Thank you thank you and thank you! You and Sweet Ajedley are beautiful woman and cooks! My husband from Ghana 🇬🇭 and I made this recipe today minus the butter and it came out amazing!

[@mistifeyed]

Had the pleasure of trying Jollof rice at a restaurant near me and it was so freaking delicious. I had seen it before in my random KZbin food bloggers videos so wanted to try it. It does not disappoint. The dish is a bit expensive where I got it so I had to try to make it. I decided on this video as it was a smaller quantity than the usual party size. And let me just say I don’t know if it really only is made for parties but it’s way too good to not be eaten all the time! So I followed this recipe exactly, first time with jasmine rice because that’s all I had (I should mention that rice absolutely defeats me if I’m not using a rice cooker. I’m really bad at rice) it was over cooked but I ate it all. For breakfast lunch and dinner. There’s an African grocer near me so I went and got parboiled rice and it made all the difference! The rice came out PERFECT! It’s worth it to get it. Couldn’t find scotch bonnets so had to use habaneros but I’m on the hunt for scotch bonnets now. They’re hard to find in my area. Thank you so much for sharing this recipe! My friend raved about it as well!

[@jesusjoy5777]

Awwww... the opening comments were beautiful. God Bless you for recognizing that God used helpers to get you where you are and also recognizing ur helpers.. Greater heights 🙏🏽

[@joyfulcook]

Thank you so much. Amen

[@alexandriahatten2167]

Just what I was looking for. I see Jollof cooked in large quantities. I want to cook for two or three people. Your recipe is perfect. Thank yy so much❤️

[@astriddelis6101]

Not Nigerian and I’ve been making my Nigerian bf Jollof for years but this recipe video is by far my favourite method. Thanks for clear instructions

[@errydeo8865]

I love Nigerians,everyone is a Doctor,nowadays,they are chefs,guess what folks,am addicted to their cocking have learned a lot...well done Sis...super

[@AgedGraceful313]

Girl I love this rice. I used to work in a hospital so my Nigerian friend would prepare the rice and I have never seen so many greedy nurses! Lol.....Thank you for sharing your version! Stay safe love💕😘💕

[@joyfulcook]

[@smaple1618]

I am so glad you made this smaller batch and with chicken. It is just me and my son and we prefer chicken. Thank you for making it easier for us to enjoy this traditional African food in a smaller amount. I have very much missed Nigerian food, but some of the products are not available where I live. I recently found some though and was excited to be able to make this recipe.

[@joyfulcook]

Wow. I hope you enjoy.

[@audreyv2746]

A big congratulations my beautiful sister! The glow on your face is excess 😍 the Jollof looks so yummy 👌

[@joyfulcook]

Chi nwanne! Thank you 🙏 ♥️

[@mistymyers2417]

Let me tellllll youuuu. This recipe is perfect. I made this today and it "shell dung di place" (it was a hit). So, I didn't have the Maggie cube (for some reason I don't buy it) but I improvised by using the soup packet (we use it in soup ) and use a sift to separate the noodles from the seasoning - worked perfectly. I also grated fresh nutmeg (only type I have). I didn't make the chicken so had no stock, but lucky me I had a few boxes in store. The flavors of are unbelievable, I had to restrain myself from eating the portion set aside. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@joyfulcook]

Wow! You are a professional your self. Thank you for taking the time to write me back .

[@divinedarkfemininetarotbyt3457]

I dated a West African guy years ago and he made me some of this rice. When I say it’s good and smells good omg 🙌🏽 happy I found a recipe for it

Hi! This looks great. Can you tell me if you keep the heat on the pan when you place the parchment paper over the pan to let the rice steam? Or do you turn off the heat at this point? See at approx. 15:03 in the video. Thank you!

[@macNC40]

So I’ve never ate jollof rice before (unfortunately) and decided to try to make this because it looks soooo good/I’ve heard so much about it . My friend who’s had it before said It’s right on the dot! It was so so good. Thank you for sharing! I noticed in this recipe it has nutmeg and your larger portion jollof recipes have white pepper- any particular reason why? I’m thinking about throwing in the white pepper next time maybe? Again thank you! Love your videos :)

[@macNC40]

Oh I rewatched the video and you do mention the white pepper! It’s just missing from your recipe in the description box! FYI :)
