Guinness World Records has\u00a0confirmed\u00a0Nigerian chef Hilda Baci’s successful attempt at cooking the largest serving of Nigerian-style Jollof Rice. Baci, along with Gino Nigeria, cooked 8,780 kg of jollof rice during a nine-hour open-air event at Eko Hotels and Suites in Lagos.<\/p>\n
This accomplishment took nine months to plan and two months to prepare. It required 4,000 kg of rice, 164 kg of goat meat, 220 kg of chicken cubes, and 600 kg of her special pepper mix. The event served over 16,600 plates and attracted thousands of spectators and live performers.<\/p>\n
In 2023, Baci set the record for the\u00a0longest cooking marathon, but Irish chef Alan Fisher later\u00a0surpassed\u00a0her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
