I've had Joloff rice a few times from Nigerian colleagues and I love it. I've looked for recipes but have been told the ones I found are wrong aha. Anyone got advice of proper joloff recipes I can try? Maybe not necessarily Nigerian? I know other countries do them too

NIGERIAN-INSPIRED VEGAN EGUSI (MELON) SEED STEW WITH TOFU by SOMI IGBENE 9.3kPinterestFacebookEmailWhatsAppShare 9.3k SHARES This is a companion piece to my article “Culture Tuesday – An Exploration of Nigerian Cuisine” (Click here to read it). Quite a few of you reached out to let me know that you’d like to try some Nigerian recipes after reading the article, so I decided to compile a list of 10 amazing recipes for you to try. If you’re new to Nigerian cuisine, be sure to read my Culture Tuesday piece on (vegan) Nigerian cuisine as well. I chose to select only recipes with ingredients that can be more easily sourced outside Nigeria and without knowing a Nigerian who can get it across from Nigeria. I also made sure to include some recipes in which palm oil can be substituted as not everyone can source West African palm oil where they live. Here they are, I hope you enjoy them! ## NIGERIAN-INSPIRED VEGAN EGUSI (MELON) SEED STEW WITH TOFU by SOMI IGBENE Egusi (traditionally, it will contain palm oil, but this recipe excludes it). Click here or on the image below for the full recipe. # ## VEGAN NO MEAT NIGERIAN EFO RIRO BY JE GBESE Efo Riro (“locust beans” here is referring specifically to iru which is locust beans fermented in the Yoruba style. Dawadawa and ogiri, the Hausa and Igbo versions might work, but they’ll give a bit of a different flavour). Click here or on the image below to get the full recipe. ## PUFF PUFF – NIGERIAN PUFF PUFF RECIPE BY K’S CUISINE Click here or on the image below to get the full recipe. ## AKARA (ACCARA): NIGERIAN AND WEST AFRICAN BEAN FRITTERS BY YUMMY MEDLEY Akara (I would suggest adding some fresh ginger to this). Click here or on the image below to get the full recipe. ## CHICKPEA CORN FRITTERS WITH VEGAN ‘EGG’ SAUCE BY VEGAN BY SOMI (Somi Igbene) Click here or on the image below to get the full recipe. ## NIGERIAN PARTY RICE BY LICK YOUR PLATES (SAMANTHA ONYEMENAM) Party Rice: Jollof Rice AND Fried Rice. This is one of my own recipes! Click here or on the image below for the full recipe. ## MOIN-MOIN BY IMMACULATE BITES Moin-moin (NOTE: the photos and the recipe are of vegan moin moin. However, Imma suggests that crayfish is an optional ingredient that could be added in this recipe post, so just be aware of that and omit that step to keep it vegan). Click here or on the image below for the full recipe. ## BAKED PLANTAINS: NIGERIAN BOLI WITH GUACAMOLE BY NKECHI AJAEROH Click here or on the image below for the full recipe. ## OBE ATA/ATA DINDIN/BUKKA STEW BY THE VEGAN NIGERIAN Click here or on the image below for the full recipe. ## ## ONE POT BEANS AND SWEET CORN (ADALU) BY MY DIASPORA KITCHEN Click here or on the image below for the full recipe. ## **YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE:** _Editor:Samantha Onyemenam._ 9.3kPinterestFacebookEmailWhatsAppShare 9.3k SHARES

Trying fufu! I had high hopes for the egusi. I loved the pepper soup and the rice dishes. I would get it again in a heartbeat. What else should I try?

I have to cross the bridge to get Nigerian food.

Confusingly this spot is now on Google maps as ‘Kojokojo’ but it used to be called Jolly Jolly
