Sierra leone Coconut jollof Rice

Grind the bell peppers, tomatoes, and onions until creamy.

Fry the cow meat in 2 tablespoons of oil with a little salt until golden brown, then remove and set aside.

In the same oil, add the ground vegetable mixture and cook.

Add bay leaves to the pot for flavor.

Add salt, thyme, basil, black pepper, and 2 tablespoons of jollof seasoning to the vegetables.

Mix in the jasmine rice and fry for a few minutes without adding liquid.

Pour in the coconut milk and mix everything together.

Add half a cup of water, cover with a plastic wrap to trap heat, and cook on low heat for 15 minutes.

Check the rice and mix to prevent burning, then add 50 ml of water if necessary and cover again for another 10 minutes.
