Add Shirley's Jollof Paste
Add 1 teaspoon of Shirley's Jollof Paste or the entire jar if you prefer a richer taste
Add water
Add the appropriate amount of water to the amount of rice used in step 1
Season
Add salt and pepper as desired or your secret ingredient, unique to your household
Cover with foil
Put a sheet of foil over the pot/container lid
Cook and steam
If using a rice cooker, simply go to cook mode and at the end of the cycle, give the rice a stir and let it steam with foil on once cooked for 10 minutes. If using the stove, please cook on a low heat and occasionally stir rice every 10 minutes until cooked. Once rice has cooked - usually 20-25mins, turn off stove and let the rice steam for 10mins with the foil and lid on.
