A serving of plantain porridge |
My Plantain Porridge With Turkey, Amaranth, Scent Leaves And Tomatoes . i don’t know what to call this dish, but i think “Plantain Porridge” will
do seeing that i†’s made of plantain, and well, i† looks like porridge. *Covers Face*
Ok so, here is a list of the ingredients i used….
- INGREDIENTS:
Plantain (between ripe and unripe)
Tomatoes
Onions
Scent/mint leaves
Green or amaranth (I’m sure i didn’t spell da† right….forgive.)
Crayfish
Yellow pepper
Olive oil
Turkey
Maggi
Salt
PREPARATION for Plantain Porridge With Turkey, Amaranth, Scent Leaves And Tomatoes
- Wash turkey and spice turkey with onions, pepper, maggi and salt and s†ar† cooking.
- Dice the plantain as you can see in the pics, slice up the onions, tomatoes, pepper and the leaves..
- When turkey is done, bring the pieces out of the stock, pour diced plantain into the stock.
- Add crayfish and scent/mint leaves then cook on medium heat. Watch carefully ‘cos crayfish makes food stick to the bottom of the pot and burn quickly, so please stand guard.
- While the plantain boils, fry some onions, tomatoes and pepper. When the wa†er is dried up from the tomatoes, pour in your green amaranth and stir.
- Pour the fried tomatoes and green amaranth into the diced plantain which would have dried up the meat stock by now. Add the turkey, stir all togerra and le† cook for like a minute.
Pu† out fire, food is done.

……And as I said earlier, all must pass my table for sampling! *don'tforgeto!* 😀
#seriouslyIamalazycook,neddfreedinnero!#
Weldone!
Yes oooo Bona, you can use ugu instead. The first time I made this dish, I used dried fish instead of turkey, unripe plantain instead of fairly ripe, and I have never used scent leaves for if before. So this time, I decided to change some stuff, and I must say, I like this version better, the scent leaves didn't disappoint at all. The only mistake I made was that I didn't consider the fact that turkey brings out its own oil, so the oil in the dish was a tad much, but it still tasted great!
Thank u.
Looks yummy! But I dnt like turkey except it's very fried dry…:-( so I'll stick to Chicken or fish. It looks good though, well done.
Yes Myne, can't wait
