The objective of the class was to teach people how to get the Smokey Party Jollof rice from the comfort of their homes without the use of firewood.  Jollof rice is a staple dish in Nigerian and Party Jollof is an advanced level of making the national dish. Jollof is a rice dish cooked in a deep red sauce comprising of peppers, onions, tomatoes, spices and herbs. It can be cooked in several ways, either parboiling the rice or cooking it raw. To avoid stories that tell, I would advise to adopt the method of using raw washed rice. The benefits are the rice takes on the colour of sauce fully giving it the deep red colour and water can be be controlled which will result to a less sticky rice.
