Ingredients for Making Ghanaian Jollof Rice 

4 cups of rice

2 kg of Chicken (I just like to use chicken but you can use any kind of meat that suits you)
1 to 1.2 liter of Ground Fresh tomatoes (your blender is calibrated, 1000ml = 1 liter)
40 to 100 ml Ground Fresh peppers
Spices (Curry, Thyme, Delice, Nutmeg, you can spice to your taste and desire)
2 cubes of Maggi
2 Bulbs of onions
20 to 30 cl vegetable or groundnut oil
Salt to taste.

Method

Parboil  the chicken (or any meat of your choice) with the spices listed above.  Then prepare the main food with the meat extract (meat water) with very  little or no extra spice.Add water so that more  than half of the entire chicken (or meat of choice) is submerged, then  add sliced 1 bulb of onions, 3 cubes of Maggi, one tea spoon of  salt and maybe a little of curry, thyme and (or) spice of choice. You  might want to pick out the parboiled tasty chicken and deep fry in  vegetable/ ground nut oil, this wouldn’t take more than 10 minutes.Then  remove some of the oil if it is above fifteen to twenty centiliter,  just so you don’t end up with lots of oil at the bottom of your pot. Add  sliced onions to the hot oil and then the ground tomatoes/pepper after  about a minute. Fry until the tomatoes looses its sour taste due to  frying (about ten to fifteen minutes later)This  is s trick that helps reduce burning, most jollof rice end up getting  burned at the bottom of the pot. So divide the tomatoes and commence  cooking with one of the halves in the pot, add the meat extract (meat  water), then about 1 or 2 cups of water, (you can add a little more  water later), add the ground crayfish (if you are using crayfish), a  cube of maggi (if the meat extract) is not a good as desired,  add salt to taste. Stir and taste the whole solution.Spice  to your taste with your desired flavors and spices, then add the rice,  lower the heat and cover to cook. You can add the other half of the  fried tomatoes after cooking for ten to fifteen minutes, also slice  onions and spray at the top, this has its health benefits.Then  just cook till the rice is soft for consumption, Remember that you can  add water occasionally. Then you can drop the fried meat at the top and  cover in the last five minutes.
