How To Make Ghanaian Jollof Rice

[@theresaowusu6007]

Medaase! My mom passed away this year and I was always too intimidated to try to make Jolllof. I made it for the first time using your recipe and it reminded me so much of her. I don’t know why I was intimidated, following your recipe was easy. Medaase.

[@InAmmasKitchen]

I'm sorry for your loss. It's so good to know that this video helped you cook Jollof. It's so special how cooking certain dishes reminds us of our loved ones. Thank you so much for sharing ❤️

[@theresaowusu4525]

@Hippychic Thank you so much. I really appreciate that. All the best.

[@AnalystAyi]

Omg ma’am!!! This my first time making jollof rice as I am an American girl married to a Ghanaian and this came out soooooo delicious 🤤 wowwwww my husband is so proud 🇬🇭

[@lnajjemba]

I’m trying it for the first time too tomorrow, hopefully it comes out as good as yours😳😊

[@honeybunzee]

I’m African American and my best friend who is Ghanaian has shown me how to make jollof. I had been looking for a video recipe to also follow along with as I make it for my first time. Your videos on the simple and the fancy jollof rice are extremely helpful and the closest to her family recipe. Thank you so much and wish me luck. 😊🙏🏾 P.S. My boyfriend is also Ghanaian and I'm trying to learn for him. So I'll be subscribed for more dishes! Medase!

[@InAmmasKitchen]

So good to hear this was helpful 😊 Thanks for subscribing! Good luck, I'm sure you'll do great 💕

[@christchild1711]

WOW, Ive tried for many years to make a Proper Jollof Rice, and after watching your video something clicked, I understood everything. I am American, and my daughter is Ghanian/American, I know how to cook all the stews but this rice has always been a challange. But today I did it. Thanks a lot. God bless you

[@taylortee8474]

I’m a Southern African girl. The way I love jollof, I think God is telling me my husband is going to be from one of the jollof nations 😂 thank you for the simple recipe

[@Uyimeoku]

❤

[@kourtneywiththekurls814]

African American checking in. I’m making this tomorrow. I’m so excited and very proud to make this dish. Thank you.

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Hey girls 🙋🏿‍♀️ Thanks for stopping by, hope you like it!

[@gladysotabil850]

We thank you so much for your time to share with us your recipe. In fact I really enjoyed it when I made my own. Thank you

[@SA-nt9kl]

I cooked it twice and today will be the third time I’m making this dish. Thank you so much Ama! You’re the best

[@YvngJxmes]

i love the way u put the peas and carrots to the jollof it makes it nicer this is why I love Ghana

[@jessiemeechan2864]

Looks absolutely delicious. I'm a English woman who absolutely loves African food & carribean. I already know how to cook carribean food so I'm now learning African. I make Nigerian jollof rice, its nice but not perfect as I'm still learning. I will attempt this recipe tomorrow. Thank you for sharing

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Hope cooking it went well 😄

[@foxyroxy6492]

I love it when my Ghanian colleague brings this rice into work so I decided to try and make it. Wish me luck!

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Good luck 🍀 would live to know how it goes!

[@sweetersmilez]

I made this the other day and it tasted so good. Thanks for the recipe!

[@InAmmasKitchen]

My pleasure 😀

[@jayLanette90]

How long did you cook the stew be4 adding the rice

[@InAmmasKitchen]

8-10 minutes over a low to medium fire

[@jenama86]

Such a good recipe! Came out so well!!! 🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭🇬🇭

[@kwameaboagye940]

Sister Amna, you’re spoiling me with your lovely mouth watering dish for teatime or lunchtime.

[@michellepenaloza8058]

Mexican here recently went to a Ghanaian restaurant and it was so good so here I am searching up recipes to make myself 😋😋

[@collinsohene3605]

I entreat you to visit Ghana

[@alw-b1828]

Michelle this makes me so happy, I also love Mexican food and plan to go visit one day, as we too welcome you to Ghana. Please also try Groundnut Soup, this is our national dish, but be careful, it'll put booty on you! 😂 Enjoy Senorita!

[@fizahambali]

I had never tried any African countries recipes & cooking before. But this one i think is a must! I want to taste the similarities & differences with Asian rice recipes.

[@zaffron6032]

A few months ago a West African diner owned by a Lebanese couple who lived a long time in Sierra Leone and the chef's are West African opened near the area I live in and my very first West African dish was Tieboudienne and I was amazed from it being delicious. A few days ago I had Ebbeh (made from cassava) and also was amazing though very spicy. And today I had Pepe Soup (Pepper Stew with fish) also really amazing. I look forward to try more West African dishes in the near future.

[@InAmmasKitchen]

All those dishes sound delicious! In this playlist (bit.ly/ghanaian-food-playlist) you'll find more West African, specifically Ghanaian recipes. Hope you enjoy your West African food adventure!

[@blessingashanti7039]

thats cool

[@mwells219]

She use maggi cubes. That’s how you know this is the real deal.

[@amen_forever]

🤣🤣🤣

[@Yorubaddie]

@Koolaid Purple Nigerians always use Maggi

[@Yorubaddie]

@Koolaid Purple 🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬

[@henningbartels6245]

I'm baffled, how and why maggi cubes made it to Ghana and into Ghanaian recipies. I would have expected to find some fresh herb or spice there.

[@jesedzu9741]

Why maggi cubes?? Is there other spices to replace the cubes?

[@KreyolRoots]

I love your videos. They are short and to the point! Perfect. There is a type of rice theAfrican ladies always have at church. It's similar to this one but it has nothing in it and it's kid of dry and really dark red. What kind of rice is that?

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Thank you so much! It kinda reminds me of Waakye except Waakye is usually made with beans. I have a recipe of it on my channel 😄

[@nh2008]

It's maybe Nigerian jollof =)

[@danfrim8981]

wow! sweet aroma and taste good . I'm done with mine👍👍👍🍲 thanks my dear .

That's great! Glad you liked it 😄

[@blessingashanti7039]

Hey Queen, I made your chicken stew recipe and I'm lost for words. It was AMAZING! I love how you include curry in almost every tomatoe stew. You really made me love curry lol. Now I'm here making your jollof rice for the second or third time. I really wish your channel would blow up. You have the easiest and tastiest recipes ever. Have a nice day.

Followed this recipe for my brother who loves jollof rice , turned out delicious! thank you, i am going to refer to this recipe from now on. + like to add that i didn't have maggi cubes on hand ( had a little breakdown lol) , so i made a stock from the meat and used that as a substitute :)

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Making stock from the meat is a great alternative! Glad to hear it turned out delicious ❤️

[@Ngasii]

This looks incredibly delicious🔥

[@ShadesOfSoul1906]

Born and Raised in the United States of America, I was introduced to Jollof Rice about 5 years ago, by my friends here who are from Ghana (Kumasi). I LOVE it. The last 2 years or so, I have ventured into cooking my own. Still a novice, but I am improving. LOL. This looks SOOOOO GOOOOOOD! I will definitely use some of your tips, to add to what my friends from Ghana taught Me. Thanks.

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Thank you! Lol, practice really does make perfect. The more you make it the better you will get 😄

Thank you Abigail! I did not add any other spices apart from maggi cubes and curry powder. I find that along with magi and curry the red bell pepper and garlic flavours it enough.

Waouw this is the simpliest Jollof Rice recipe I've never seen... It seems so simple and yet so yummy...I'll definitely give it a try...God bless you..And I also have a question : Can we replace tomatoes paste by tomate purée , I know the consistency is not the same but I was just wondering... 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Thanks! I haven't tried replacing tomato paste with tomate purée so I'm not sure how that works out with the taste. It might possible have effect on the colour though. The paste assists in giving the rice its colour.

do you drain some of the oil off the onion before adding th tomato mixture? (im Caribbean but LOVE Ghanaian jollof rice and would love to learn to cook it instead of buying it)

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Kudos to you for learning how to make Jollof rice 🙌🏾 I do not drain the oil off the onion before adding the tomato mixture. You can remove some of the oil but if you do you'll have to cook the tomato a bit longer.

The Ghanaian Jollof Rice really reminds me of the Senegalese "thiep bou diene "...It almost looks the same to me...

[@InAmmasKitchen]

Thieboudienne and Jollof have allot of similarities :)

[@AllThought]

Jollof is their version of Wollof.

[@firstnamelastname4427]

It's the same. Senegalese thiep bon dienne is the original jollof rice.

[@Afrinection]
