Kinday couldn’t provide us with an own recipe, but she mentioned Thieboudienne, a dish often considered the original expression of Jollof rice, is the national dish of The Gambia and Senegal. Made with fish, rice, and vegetables cooked together in one pot, it is a dish that requires balance, patience, and care. Traditionally eaten from a shared bowl, it reflects more than nourishment, it speaks to identity, community, and the rituals of togetherness that define a culture.

We have found a couple of recipes for you if you want to cook along:
