A West African classic: long-grain rice cooks in a smoky, spiced pepper and tomato sauce, turning a lovely orange-red. Served with crispy oven-baked chicken drumsticks and pan-fried sweetheart cabbage with peppers.
Method
Chicken
Preheat the oven to 200 °C. Mix the oil with the curry powder, paprika, salt and pepper and rub over the chicken. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and bake in the centre of the oven for approx. 40 min., until the meat is cooked through to the bone (core temperature approx. 74 °C).
Sauce
Heat the oil in a small pan. Sweat the onion, garlic and ginger for approx. 2 min. Add the paprika, turmeric, pepper, chipotle and tomato purée and sweat for approx. 2 min. more. Add the tomatoes, season, cover and simmer over a low heat for approx. 20 min., adding a little water if needed. Blend the sauce until smooth.
Jollof rice
Heat the oil in a pan and sweat the onion for approx. 2 min. Add the rice and sweat for approx. 1 min. more. Add the sauce, water, stock and salt and bring to the boil. Cover and cook over a low heat for approx. 18 min., until the liquid has been absorbed. Fluff up the rice with a fork.
Sweetheart cabbage
Heat the oil in a wide frying pan. Stir-fry the cabbage, peppers and onion for approx. 5 min., until the vegetables are lightly browned but still crisp. Season with salt.
To serve
Divide the jollof rice between plates, arrange the vegetables alongside and top each with 2 chicken drumsticks.
- Tip:
- Chipotle in adobo adds smokiness and heat. If you prefer it milder, use just ½ tsp; for more fire, add a little more.
- Variation:
- Use chicken legs with skin instead of drumsticks; the baking time increases by approx. 10 min.
- Goes well with:
- A dollop of yoghurt and fresh coriander.
