My husband is from Ghana so I need to make jollof
I have tried many different recipes, but this one is the best!
Before the onions I cook corned beef with Jamaican jerk seasoning, and I use smoked paprika!

I’m sorry to hear that you’ve had difficulties with the Jollof Rice recipe, especially since it has worked for many others. Cooking times and liquid ratios can sometimes vary depending on the type of rice used, the specific oven or stovetop, and even the altitude.

However, if you’ve had to add multiple cups of water and extend the cooking time significantly, it does sound like something is off. It’s possible that the type of rice you’re using may require more liquid or a longer cooking time than what’s specified in the recipe. I really can’t tell for sure without being there

Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Your feedback is invaluable for improving the recipe and helping others avoid similar issues. I appreciate your detailed account, and I’m sorry for the inconvenience you’ve experienced. Keep cooking and keep experimenting! ️

I have tried this twice now using the oven recipe first and stovetop recipe second. The first time, I thought the rice was undercooked because I did something wrong but after 2 mess ups, it seems like the recipe is completely wrong for the amount of rice involved. I had to add multiple more cups of water and 30+ extra minutes of time on the stovetop for the rice to be cooked thoroughly. And yes, I followed the recipe exactly (in the beginning before I had to change it).
