Mandip's Experience: Jollof Rice (Josephine's Place)
So this week all of us went to Josephine's house to make jollof rice. Josephine's sister, Jennifer, showed us how to make the popular West-African dish. We used all sorts of spices, tomato paste, onions, and maggi seasoning. While learning how to make the dish and actually helping Jennifer make it, we had Nigerian music playing in the background. The music along with the food combined to make the perfect cultural experience. I now know how to make jollof rice and Josephine even taught me how to azonto (dance) to the Nigerian music.
