Nigerian red oil, also known as palm oil, is a traditional cooking oil widely used in Nigerian cuisine and across West Africa. It is derived from the fruit of the oil palm tree (Elaeis guineensis) and has a vibrant reddish-orange color due to its high content of beta-carotene and other carotenoids. The oil is an essential ingredient in many iconic Nigerian dishes such as jollof rice, egusi soup, and banga soup.
