How to cook plantain porridge with ugu vegetable fluted pumpkin
First I pressure cooked the meat with salt, onion and seasoning cubes. Then added the plantain, pepper, salt just the way Nigerians cook normal plantain porridge. I checked for taste, stirring often until porridge is cooked and thickens. There is no oil added at this time.
In the fry pan I stir fry (with palm oil) my ugu vegetables with onion, crayfish and knorr beef seasoning cubes, checked for taste, satisfied before I emptied into the pot of oil less porridge. Stirred, tasted and turned off the heat.
