This plant does well in various places where the soil is rich and swampy.


Jollof Rice

Here are some pictures showing how I prepared the Jollof Rice in stages and steps.

STAGE 1: The Rice


Step1

  • Measure the amount of cups of rice, e.g., 6 cups, and pour it into the cooking pot.
  • Add 3 litters of water.
    Note: wash your hands before this process.
  • Turn on the cooker and put the filled out on it.

Step2

  • Allow the food to boil while you are preparing things for the stew.
  • When it boils, pour the rice into a filter on a bowl and fill another bowl half with water and pour the rice into it for the excess starch to go out as you turn down your cooker.
  • Rinse the pot, add water, turn the cooker back on and put the pot on fire.
  • Using a smaller filter, wash the rice into the pot being careful that water and fire are enemies.

Step3

  • Add salt for taste, a table spoon
  • Allow to boil for just 10mins. This is because it will still be strong when adding the stew.
  • Turn down the fire in preparation for the stew

The rice is partly cooked or parboiled awaiting the stew.


STAGE 2: The Stew


Step1

  • Get your pot or frying pan, turn the cooker on and pour oil into the pot.
    Note: The water in the pot or pan after rinsing should dry off before pouring the oil in it.
  • Allow the pan to heat up and the oil boil.

While I was doing some other things in the kitchen, I turned back to see that the pot had started smoking. It was chocking and cloudy. @asuvic can tell.

fighting the smoke, hahaha. I opened the door for it to escape.



  • Put a little salt to prevent the hot oil from shooting. Put onions and fry in the oil.
  • Add your tomatoe either fresh or already made. Stir well to mix well with the oil
  • Taste to see if the tomatoes it cooked and start adding the seasonings.
