What it is

Ghana's jollof manifesto: rice cooked in tomato stew with a ginger-garlic-anise depth, served with chicken and shito — the other capital of the great jollof debate. Ingredients: jasmine or long-grain rice, tomatoes, peppers, onions, tomato paste, ginger, garlic, anise seed, curry, stock, oil; chicken, shito. Recipe: 1) Build a rich tomato stew base (the stew must be complete before the rice). 2) Add stock and rice. 3) Steam covered on low until the grains separate and glow. 4) Rest; fluff. Serve: with grilled chicken, salad and a spoon of shito — and strong opinions. Flavor: tomato-rich, aromatic, cleaner-lined than its Nigerian rival. History: Ghana and Nigeria's jollof rivalry is West Africa's favourite argument — musicians, ministers and grandmothers all hold positions. See also: Waakye, Groundnut Stew (Nkate Nkwan).
