Basmati Jellof Rice Vs Long Grain Jellof Rice by Nobody: 6:35am On May 04, 2013
I have tasted both and I personally think the basmati version is the easiest to cook and the best... Just as basmati rice is the best rice..

I'm Nigerian and I know what it tastes like lol... Basmati gives that uniqueness and delicious taste you won't get from the plump/chunky long grain...

Lmao at the bolded... It seems Nigerians love eating rice everyday - that's reminiscent of when I used to live with my parents... It was rice, rice, rice, and more rice.. grin

Anyway, I'm not going back to long grain any time soon...

It's easier to cook...

Just make you don't add too much water and there's no point parboiling it...

Basmati anytime.I no longer buy long grain.Its too chunky.

If you live in the Uk try Asli basmati rice for jollof and fried rice.Same consistency as traditional long grain jollof rice but fluffier.
