Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1 onion, diced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
2 tablespoons tomato paste
1 teaspoon cayenne powder
3 large tomatoes, diced
¾ cup water
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 pound beef stew meat, cut into bite-size chunks
4 cups jasmine rice

Steps:

  • Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, and ginger; cook and stir until softened, about 5 minutes.

This Jollof rice is delicious! The rice is fluffy and flavorful, and the beef is tender and juicy. I will definitely be making this again.

I'm a vegetarian, so I made this Jollof rice without the beef. It was still delicious! I added some extra vegetables, and it was a perfect meal.

I made this Jollof rice for a potluck, and it was a huge success! Everyone loved it, and I even got a few requests for the recipe.

This recipe was a total disaster! The rice was mushy, the beef was overcooked, and the whole dish was bland. I will not be making this again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my Jollof rice didn't turn out as good as I expected. The rice was a bit dry, and the beef was tough. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This Jollof rice recipe was a hit at our dinner party! The flavors were incredible, and the rice was cooked to perfection. I especially loved the addition of the bell peppers and tomatoes, which gave the dish a nice pop of color and flavor.
