    Okay so I just had to throw in my comment. I've been struggling with making Jollof rice for a very long time now. I've watched a lot of videos about making Jollof rice but nothing as detailed as this. Just yesterday I stumbled on this video watched and even wrote down some notes. I bought all the Ingredients and today I tried this method and OMG it was a huge success. Everyone has been asking how I got the recipe to make the rice because for the first time I got it right! I made the rice an hour ago and its almost finished. This video legit helped me! It works you guys!!!! Buy all the ingredients and take note of the little details. Especially when you spoke about cooking on low heat! My God that was a game changer. Thank you zee you are amazing! This helped me a lot, I hope to try other amazing recipes from you. Please guys pay attention to the details! I can still smell the aroma of the rice I cooked all over the house damn!

    Ha, Winnie! I am breaking protocol for you. First time commenting on UA-cam. I never comment but just have to. My son mentioned yesterday he didn't want jollof rice but white rice. I probed him further, he reluctantly told me the jollof rice he takes in school is better than mine..ha. Initially the African mother in me wanted to arise but Holy Spirit said I should listen to him. Few hours later I was on UA-cam and it was your post about this video I saw. Hmm what a coincidence some may say but I knew it was divine. I tried the recipe as per the pepper/tomatoes/onion ratio, water, everything. The outcome was amazing! The boy I usually force to eat my jollof rice took 3 servings!
    ...he said Mummy the rice looks like and smells like the school rice, even better. My heart is full Winnie and I want to share my heartfelt thank you.

    3: stir fry onions(caramelized ) fry tomato paste ist before adding mix
    4: add few seasonings
    5: quality of rice
    6: cook on low heat, less water, ; steam

      You know the medium size tin tomatoes? I use one tin of the tomato to 4 cups/measures of this same medium tin. I hope I made sense. I don't use fresh tomatoes most of the time. For a richer color, you can go for red bell peppers or spicity. Then add your favorite spices as desired. And be generous with the onions. 😀😀 Cheers🎉

    I've never had Jollof rice, but I've seen it in commercials. I also just watched this cooking show on CLEO TV and this lady from Ghana made it with lamb, and another one using a different grain (I don't remember the name). That jollof rice with that lamb looked so damn good! She also did the fold over the rice to let the steam keep the rice moist. Winnie is cooking hers differently than the lady in the video. I think they're from different parts of Africa,, but either way I'm trying this and I've subscribed to this channel! What I really love is Winnie's breakdown to help build up the flavors and color of jollof.
