[ReeseTaki]

I'm excited to make jollof rice this weekend and want to make sure I pair it with the perfect side dishes. What do you usually serve with jollof rice? Are there specific vegetables, proteins, or even drinks that enhance its flavors? I’d love to hear your favorite combinations and try them out!

That sounds delicious! Jollof rice pairs perfectly with:

• Grilled chicken or fried plantains
• Spicy suya or beef kebabs
• Coleslaw or mixed vegetable salad
• Moin moin (steamed bean cake)

For drinks, try it with a cold ginger beer or a fruity punch!
Enjoy your meal!

Jollof rice goes well with crispy fried fish, which gives a crunchy texture, and moi moi, a steamed bean pudding. Their combination is just delicious!
