First time cooking this and the timing notes saved me. Did not lift the lid once. The crust at the bottom was the best part.

Loved it but added an extra scotch bonnet — we like it spicy. Recipe scales well, made a double batch.

Ghanaian Jollof Rice
Smokier and more aromatic than its Nigerian cousin. Ghanaian jollof leans on long-grain jasmine rice and bay-and-thyme bouquet. Cook the rice in the stew, never separately.
