About Our Fried Rice

Nigerian-style fried rice is a West African celebration dish, and it is the plate we recommend most often to guests trying Nigerian food for the first time. Parboiled long-grain rice is tossed in a hot pan with a colourful mix of vegetables and gentle West African spices – no coconut milk – so every grain stays separate, fluffy and full of flavour.

The rice is stir-fried with carrots, sweet corn, peas, sweet peppers and green onion, then seasoned with curry and traditional spices. It is mild by design, so it works just as well for kids and spice-shy diners as it does alongside a fiery pepper soup.

Pair it with grilled chicken, beef, turkey, goat meat or fried croaker fish to complete the plate, and add sweet fried plantain if you want the full Nigerian party spread.

“Amazing Nigerian food in downtown Winnipeg. The jollof rice and stewed beef were full of flavour and tasted just like home. Generous portions and friendly staff make this a great spot for West African cuisine.”
