Introducing the Lalu Special Jollof Wrap – African Flavour, Wrapped to Perfection

At Lalu Catering Services UK, we believe food should tell a story — of culture, creativity, and bold flavour. That’s exactly what inspired our latest innovation: The Lalu Special Jollof Wrap. This exciting new dish is a fresh, modern twist on a beloved classic, created by our Chief Chef and Founder, Latifi Amoussa, to bring African cuisine into a whole new form.

A Novel Take on Jollof

Jollof rice is more than food — it’s identity, pride, and celebration. But at Lalu Catering Services, we asked a bold question: What if jollof could travel?

The answer became the Jollof Wrap — a handheld, flavour-packed meal inspired by the style of shawarma, but rooted in African taste and tradition.

Instead of flatbread filled with Middle Eastern spices, we wrap our signature smoky jollof rice and stew in a warm tortilla-style wrap, layered with delicious fillings and grilled to perfection. It’s portable, satisfying, and unforgettable.

What’s Inside the Lalu Special

Every bite of the Lalu Jollof Wrap is carefully balanced for taste, texture, and colour:

• Jollof rice & rich stew – our signature base

• Fried diced plantain – sweet, golden, and comforting

• Mixed peppers – for that gentle heat and aroma

• Fresh spinach – light, green, and nutritious

You can choose your style:

1. Chicken Jollof Wrap

2. Beef Jollof Wrap

3. Vegetarian Jollof Wrap

4. Vegan Jollof Wrap (100% plant-based, full flavour)

All options are Halal-friendly, with vegetarian and vegan choices available — because great food should welcome everyone.

Inspired by Shawarma, Powered by African Flavour

The Lalu Special takes inspiration from the shawarma style of wrapping and grilling — but the soul of it is unmistakably African. It’s street food with class. Comfort food with innovation. Traditional flavour in a modern form.

It’s perfect for: ✔ Lunch on the go

✔ Market days and food festivals

✔ Corporate catering

✔ Private events and parties
