Jollof rice is a tasty hybrid of rice and stew.
Jollof rice also makes a very nutritious meal, since it’s a great source of carbohydrates and proteins.
Jollof rice is also rich in vitamins and minerals, including vitamin A, vitamin C, iron, and magnesium.
Vitamin A is important for eye health, while vitamin C helps to boost the immune system, especially important when traveling.
Iron is essential for the production of red blood cells, while magnesium is important for bone health.
Honestly, reading the list of vitamins and minerals in Jollof rice, I almost feel like I’m browsing at a GNC store.
And I’m all for it.
It can be eaten with a spoon, but cutting out the “middleman” and going straight in with your hands is OK too.
In Nigeria, it is often eaten with a side of fried plantains and a wet salad resembling coleslaw.
Of course, as I found out, the best way to eat Jollof rice is as often as possible.
