AD-FEATURE: Jollof Paste – the true taste of West Africa
Shirley, the founder of Shirley’s Jollof Paste has revolutionised a traditional West African cuisine that usually takes 2hrs to cook without compromising on the authentic taste and flavour.
A mother of 5, running a business and cooking for a large family doesn’t come easy.
It’s all worth it when we are all together at the dining table eating our favourite dish Jollof Rice and the children telling me mum this is the best.
With Jollof being a staple dish in every West African home and definitely a dish that unites the whole family, a cuisine that you would expect for all celebrations be it a wedding, birthday, christening, funeral, Easter, Christmas and rest from the Africa diaspora.
“I wanted to create a staple food product that was quick and easy for the family as well as for all to experience the heavenly flavours of West Africa infused in our everyday dishes from around the world without the hassle.”
Benefiting from 4 Flavours Original, Chicken, Lamb and Beef, and yes they are all Vegan.
With no mess no stress, everyone can now cook Jollof Rice like a Pro with ease in 35 mins.
It gets even better, the paste is versatile in its application, it can be used as a marinade or as a ingredient to cook other dishes from around the world giving your dish a twist.
A staple product that should be in every kitchen cupboard.
