@omoibile May I add that Jollof was a senegalese empire... So if you combine the ex jolof empire, the wolof tribe from Senegal, the wolof language (which is btw a national and officia language in Senegal besides french) you can easily guess the origin of the "jollof rice" without further explanations or opening a history book. Literally, jollof rice means rice from jollof... It was my 2 cts

Sure, you can add maggi cubes to the sauce. But be sure to reduce the amount of salt and seasoned salt so that your rice does not end up salty.

@foxgirl100 Yeah it's true.The ghanaian & Nigerian one is usually like that.Jollof from places like Seirra Leonne, Gambia, Cameroon and places like that usually has veggies meat fish seafood. If you have friends from these places you should try some.. Regardless ALL Jollof is GOOD jollof and makes me happy!! :D

Jollof rice is as diverse as chili can be, everyone makes it different, I do not think there is a wrong way to cook it. It has been one of my favorites since my Liberian husband and I married 14 years ago. The only wrong way is to make it too dry. But again that is just my opinion.
Jollof rice is really from Senegal and Gambia.
