In the first ever 'Rate This Cuisine' I will introduce to you Nigerian cuisine I may do ethnic croup cuisines down the line.
Country: Nigeria
Jollof rice
Jollof's base ingredient is always rice, and "TPO" (tomato, pepper and onion) plus scotch bonnets. It's customisable according to your preference: make it hotter than the sun, or as mild as a European's palette (jk, but not really). Add mixed vegetables if you want (please don't). Best enjoyed with piping hot dodo (see below) and a cold Supermalt.
Why it's awesome: It's pure, flavourful carbs, and tastes like God's love. What's not awesome about that?
Bean and plantain pottage
What it is: A pottage made of beans and plantains,
Why it's awesome: Nigerians love a pottage, and they are most commonly made with yams (Nigeria is one of the top producers of yam in the world). This variation balances the nuttiness of brown beans with the natural sweetness of plantains, and the palm oil adds a rich smoky taste to it.
What it is: Skewers of intricately spiced cuts of meat, grilled to perfection over an open flame. Often served with sharp, raw chopped onions, and wrapped in newspaper.
Why it's awesome: Suya is widely considered to be a specialty of the Hausa people of northern Nigeria and Niger. The key to excellent suya is the spice mix (yaji) it is steeped in before grilling, and the Mallams will never share their recipes. The joy of suya is finding the best spots in your state.
What it is: Basically deep fried, light-as-air sweet dough balls, served alone or with sugar sprinkled over them.
Why it's awesome: ☝See above, please. They are the perfect party food
