Jollof rice is the one-pot wonder that's sparked debates across West Africa. Who does it best? You decide! Dive into the tomatoey, spiced rice that's often served with a side of chicken, beef, or fish. Pro tip: pair it with a cold local beer for the ultimate combo.

Prepare for a workout because fufu and goat light soup is a local delicacy you've got to pound – literally. Made from pounded yam and cassava, paired with a savory, spicy soup, it's a showstopper. Dive in, swirl your fufu, and slurp up the soup. Can you handle the spice?
It's time to go red, and we're not talking sunburn! Red-red is the bean stew that'll make you feel all kinds of good inside. Pair it with fried plantains for a sweet and savory match made in heaven. It's a combo that's music to your mouth!
