A message from my mum: “Jollof rice is a typical west African dish served daily in homes. It is also used during celebrations such as birthdays, baby naming ceremonies, weddings and festive periods like Christmas. Growing up in Lagos, Nigeria, this is how we made ours. We always used DeRica tomato paste. And as for the rice, we’ve always preferred using basmati.”

This recipe has been perfected over time...tested, trusted and loved by many.
