Hilda Pak crashed into Nigeria, the world record for the largest Golov Rice dish

Nigerian chef Hilda Back divided the world record to cook the largest number of jollof rice in Lagos last week.

Guinness World Records (GWR) confirmed the achievement on social media, saying that MS Baci cooking for the famous West Africa dish weighed 8,780 kg.

After nine hours of cooking, the voltage was approximately dangerous after the giant bowl used to make the dish broken as it was raised on a crane to be weighted – fortunately, none of the rice was leaked.

Ms. Baki celebrated an erection by thanking her team and supporters: “This moment is not just mine … it belongs to all of us.”

Despite the huge bowl twice during his weight, one of the BBC Baci team members told that they were collecting evidence from different cameras to send to GWR so that they can be officially recognized.

Baci praised the “tireless team” that made the achievement possible and shared a video clip of her reaction to the news on social media.

“This world record was built on unity, love and collective strength.”

“We have gathered history together, for Nigeria, for Africa, and for everyone who believes in the power of food to bring this victory to you too.”

The BACI recipe for Jollof dish included the coronation of 4000 kg of rice, 500 cartons of tomato paste, 600 kg of onions and 168 kg of goat meat – all poured into a dedicated container that can carry 23,000 liters.

Last week, thousands of people gathered to watch the latest world record for BACI – in 2023 she won a title The longest cooking marathon In nearly four days.

Their support was well rewarded, as the mammoth dish was later divided into individual parts and distributed to the huge crowd and pedestrians.

She previously told the BBC Bedjin that it took it a year to plan how it was dealing with the mammoth challenge.

“We (the Nigerians) are the giant of Africa, and Golov is a food that everyone knows,” she said.

“It would be logical if we have the largest amount of jollof rice, it would be great for the country.”

10 other chefs wearing the red costume who were practicing long wooden spoons helped her to move food.

It took a team of 300 people for two months, but one of its legs gave way to the decisive time.

Jollof Rice is an essential element in many West African countries, characterized by rice full of superiority, and often associated with meat or seafood.

BACI won a competition for her copy of Jollof Rice in 2021, then became a national feeling in 2023 when she claimed that the global cooking marathon record – 93 hours and 11 minutes.

However, it was later crossed by the Irish chef Alan Fisher. The current record holder is Evette Quoibia from Australia, with 140 hours and 11 minutes, according to GWR.
