Ghanaian Jollof Rice RecipeOrigin: Ghana Period: Traditional |
Ingredients
1.5kg chicken, jointed and cut into serving-sized pieces 
Ghanaian Jollof Rice Preparation:Method:Add the chicken, tomatoes, water, 2 tsp salt and the black pepper to a large metal casserole or Dutch oven and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer, cover and cook for 30 minutes. Remove the chicken and set aside then add the rice, ham, cumin and chilli (I usually add 3 tsp chilli paste but I'm used to West African cookery!). Cook for 5 minutes then add the chicken, cabbage, green beans and onions. Season with the remaining salt, bring to a boil then reduce the heat, cover and allow to simmer until the chicken is completely cooked (about 30 minutes). When done the liquid should all have been absorbed. For a more festive and colourful version add a pinch of saffron. If you're not particularly into hot chillies then reduce the amount of hot pepper and fresh thyme as a flavouring. |
