I tried cooking jollof rice with the method suggested in this recipe for New Year's lunch. I usually make it a different way. It was an interestingly delicious outcome. I'll definitely try it again. I don't like to cook with bouillon cubes so I used freshly made chicken stock and added some sea salt to season.

I`m a Nigerian and i have made this meal several times only in a different way. There is an important ingredient that is missing here which is salt.
