Abbie, :-).
Interestingly, even though I grew up eating Jollof Rice weekly almost, I've discovered a myriad of ways to cook it and my obsession has began. I've recently explored a stir-fried version and my latest, is 'oven-baked' (rather easy, I must say)!
Happy to share tips and tricks. Stay well

Thanks for this recipe. A good friend introduced me to Nigerian food. The flavors were delicious. I've wanted to prepare Nigerian dishes myself, but recipes aren't readily available. I'll try this tonight!!

Great recipe!..Thank you!...Joloff rice is actually Senegalese, not Nigerian.(Nigerian cuisine is delicious too!!) The Joloff is a region in Senegal. All Joloff rices recipes are derived from the traditional rice recipes from Senegal. You can check my blog about the delicious cuisine of Senegal.http://nafishotpeppercondiments.vpweb.com/blog/2012/11/28/THE-CUISINE-OF-SENEGAL.aspx

Nafissatou ;-), well said on the origins but you must admit that Jollof rice is now essential to the cuisine of Nigeria and has been even before I was born. True, the Wolof of Senegal gifted this treasure to most of West Africa and we are happy to share in its goodness. Please post your recipe on food52! Cheers
