Fried rice, similar to Jollof rice, is a staple in Nigerian cuisine. It is a popular main course at gatherings and festivals. Fried rice and Jollof rice are Nigeria’s two most popular rice dishes, though opinions range on which is preferable. Fried rice, in my opinion, is a tasty dish that compliments rather than competes with Jollof rice; it’s like comparing apples and oranges. Why chose when you can have both? Nigerian-style fried rice is often made with long grain rice with beef or vegetable stock, making it vegetarian-friendly. A variety of bright veggies are then mixed with the cooked rice to create a dish that is both colourful and tasty.

How To Cook an Assorted Fried Rice and Salad

• Cut the fresh veggies into small pieces (carrots, leeks, green peas, and bell peppers). Also, carefully slice the garlic. Set aside.
• Set a pot over medium-high heat. Pour in the liquid, then add the rice, salt, turmeric, and bay leaves. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook for 15 minutes, or until the liquid has dried out. Remove the pot from the heat and set aside.
• Place a frying pan on medium-high heat. Pour in the sunflower oil, then add the chopped garlic and cook until lightly browned. Add the chopped veggies, starting with the peppers, then the carrots, green peas, and leeks. Stir-fry for 3 minutes.
• Add salt and spices (ginger powder, turmeric) for seasoning. After mixing, add the sweet corn and the vegetable combination to the saucepan of cooked rice. Mix everything together, place a lid on it, and cook on low heat for five minutes.
• Serve hot with your selection of turkey, fish, chicken, or beef.
