  • Today is DAY 01 of daily uploads!!! I've been inconsistent for a bit but thats because I've been preparing the SUMMER UA-cam MARATHON for you guys💛 I can't believe there's 40,000 people in our strong family. My summer is dedicated to making you guys proud and OUR TEAM IS ONLY GOING TO GET STRONGER🥳 The road to 50k begins. Love you guys💛 Let's make this summer a movie.
    In today's video my grandma teaches me how to cook jollof! I am now certified as a professional jollof chef. If any Nigerian UA-camr wants to challenge me, book an appointment. RESPECTFULLY🤡

    I'm pretty sure some Nigerians cook jollof exactly the way you cooked yours, I think jollof is more of a household thing than a country thing. I can cook mine in probably 4 different ways or more depending on time. In my house, under normal circumstances, I cook my rice with the fried spiced tomato stew stuff and with home-made meat (chicken, meat, any meat) stock as well. I just realized that, difference in our jollofs is not actually as deep as the internet has made it 😂😂
