Do you feel like whenever you cook Jollof rice, It just doesn't come out right?
Here are 3 things you may not be doing that makes it not come out well.

1. your Tomato to Tatashe to onion ratio is not right
Do you even bother to use tatashe? well, tatashe is important. secondly, the tatashe should be more than the tomato. and use enough onions (don't manage onions). trust me.

2. You don't let it burn.
I did not say to turn it to black jollof o. just don't remove it immediately the water dries up. Let it stay for a few more minutes. Let the paste enter well

3. You are not frying the paste well.
My brother, my sister are you scared of frying your paste? Do you see that tomato paste?, fry it very well before you add the tomato/tatashe/onion blend. and allow it to fry well too.

Abeg, explain this a lot better. What does frying it very well mean? For how long should one fry it to be certain it is well fried? What do you do when the paste starts to burn when frying?

Hello, thanks for the question . when it fries well, it usually starts looking like bread crumbs (tiny pieces), fry for at least 10 mins and your fire should be on medium heat not high heat if not it'll be burning unnecessary. Hope this helps
