Jollof pirinci, egusi çorbası, suya – cesur, aromatik Batı Afrika klasikleri.
Nijerya mutfağı, 250'den fazla etnik gruptan oluşan bir federasyonu yansıtıyor ve üç mutfak uzmanı buna öncülük ediyor. Güneybatıdaki Yoruba mutfağı, ewedu'lu amala, biberli parti jollof'u ve obe ata güveçlerinin biber-soğan derinliği ile ünlüdür. Güneydoğudaki İgbo mutfakları dövülmüş nişastalı çorbalar konusunda uzmanlaşmıştır: ofe onugbu (acı yaprak), oha ve nsala beyaz çorba. Kuzeydeki Hausa ve Fulani gelenekleri, yaji fıstık-biber karışımıyla tatlandırılmış baharatlı kabuklu ızgara dana etinin yanı sıra tuwo ve masa pirinç kekleri olan suya katkıda bulunur.
Mutfağın mimarisi çorba ve yutmadır: Egusi (kavun çekirdeği), ogbono (yabani mango tohumu) veya bamya ile koyulaştırılmış, dövülmüş tatlı patates, eba (manyok garri) veya fufu'dan oluşan pürüzsüz hamurlarla elle yenen zengin, genellikle palmiye yağı bazlı çorbalar. Stok balığı, kurutulmuş kerevit ve tütsülenmiş balık derin umami sağlar; iru (fermente keçiboynuzu fasulyesi) misoya çok benzer. Domates ve soğanla harmanlanan İskoç bonnet ve kırmızı dolmalık biber, sayısız yemeğin temelini oluşturur; bunların en ünlüsü, Gana ile dostane bir rekabeti körükleyen jollof pirincidir.
Ev yemekleri toplu yemek pişirmedir. Ev halkı büyük miktarlarda biber karışımını harmanlıyor, ana güveci pişiriyor ve hafta boyunca pirinç, fasulye, plantain veya patates ile eşleştirmek için porsiyonları donduruyor. Sokak ve parti yemeklerinin kendi kuralları vardır: her owambe kutlamasında puf börekleri, akara fasulyeli börekler, moi moi buharda pişirilmiş fasulye pudingi, boli kavrulmuş muz ve küçük pirzola tepsileri. Hurma yağı, yer fıstığı yağı ve baharat küpleriyle cömert bir el, günlük lezzet tabanını tanımlar.
Jollof Pirinç
Uzun taneli pirinç, harmanlanmış domates, kırmızı biber ve viski kaputu tabanında dumanlanıncaya kadar pişirilir - her Nijeryalı partinin en önemli parçası.
Çorbalar ve Kırlangıçlar
Egusi, ogbono, bamya ve acı yaprak çorbaları kaşık yerine dövülerek yam, eba, amala veya fufu kullanılarak elle yenir.
Palm Yağı ve Kerevit
Kırmızı palmiye yağı ve öğütülmüş kurutulmuş kerevit, Nijerya çorbalarına karakteristik rengini ve derin, lezzetli omurgasını verir.
Biber Tabanı (Obe Ata)
Çoğu güveç ve pilav yemeğinin başında yağda kızartılmış domates, kırmızı dolmalık biber (tatashe), viski bonnet ve soğan karışımı gelir.
Suya ve Yaji Baharatı
Yer fıstığı, zencefil ve kırmızı biber karışımıyla kaplanan, açık ateşte kızartılan ve geceleri yol kenarındaki noktalarda satılan Kuzey tarzı dana şişleri.
Fasulye ve Plantain
Bal fasulyesi akara böreği, moi moi pudingi ve ewa agoyin püresi olarak görünürken plantainler dodo olarak kızartılır veya boli olarak kavrulur.

Jollof pirinci küresel amiral gemisidir ve bunu dövülmüş tatlı patates içeren egusi çorbası, suya ızgara sığır eti, biber çorbası, akara, moi moi ve kızarmış plantain takip etmektedir. Bu mutfak, viski bonnetlerinden gelen cesur sıcaklık, palmiye yağının kırmızı zenginliği, kurutulmuş kerevit ve stok balıklarından elde edilen derin umami ve nişastalı hamurlarla kalın güveçleri elle yemenin çorba ve yutma tarzıyla tanınır.
Genel olarak evet - viski bonnet (ata rodo) garnitür değil standart bir malzemedir ve ayamase, biber çorbası ve parti jollofu gibi yemekler ciddi ısı taşır. Bununla birlikte, evde yemek pişirmede ısı ayarlanabilir ve moi moi, kızarmış muz, nsala çorbası ve hindistan cevizi pirinci gibi yemekler doğal olarak yumuşaktır. Kendiniz pişirmek, lezzet tabanını kaybetmeden biberleri küçültmenizi sağlar.
Nijeryalı jollof tipik olarak uzun taneli yarı haşlanmış pirinç ve dumanlı bir 'parti pirinci' tencerenin dibi tadı için ödüllendirilen bir domates, kırmızı dolmalık biber ve viski kaputu kullanır. Ganalı jollof geleneksel olarak aromatik yasemin veya basmati tarzı pirinç kullanır ve genellikle daha fazla domates salçası ve ısıtıcı baharatlar içerir. Her iki ülke de üstünlük iddiasında; rekabet şefkatli ve çözümsüzdür.
Temel biber güveciyle başlayın: domatesleri, kırmızı dolmalık biberi, viski bonnetini ve soğanı karıştırın, karışımı yağda baharatla birlikte kızartın, ardından tavuk veya sığır eti ve et suyunu ekleyin. Bu konuda ustalaştığınızda jollof pirinci (aynı taban artı pirinç), egusi çorbası (öğütülmüş kavun çekirdeklerini ekleyin) ve ayamase yapabilirsiniz. Kızarmış muz akla gelebilecek en kolay taraftır.
Temel Malzemeler: kırmızı palmiye yağı, öğütülmüş kurutulmuş kerevit, kurutulmuş veya taze viski bonnetleri, baharat küpleri (Maggi veya Knorr), egusi (öğütülmüş kavun tohumları), ogbono tozu, kırlangıçlar için garri veya dövülmüş yam unu, uzun taneli yarı haşlanmış pirinç ve bal fasulyesi. Füme balık, stok balığı ve iru (fermente keçiboynuzu fasulyesi) daha derin geleneksel tatlar katar; kekik ve köri tozu mevsim güveçleri ve jollof.
