Hello everyone, i trust you all are doing great. I'm here to show how I prepared my yam porridge with pumpkin leaves known as ugu in my dialect for breakfast. Yam is a very healthy recipe rich in carbohydrates and it's one of my favorites food, especially when cooked as porridge or roasted. And pumpkin leaf is also good for our system for it's high nutritional worth.



These are the ingredients used;
•Tow tubers of yam
•One large onion
•1/4 cup of pepper
•1/2 teaspoon of salt to taste
•6 tablespoon of oil
• 1 sachet of tomato paste
• 3 bunches of pumpkin leaves ( ugu )
•Water
Procedure;
I will start by peeling my yam, cutting them into piece, washing them thoroughly with clean water and putting them inside the pot.



I put the pot of yam on the fire 🔥 then i added 6 cups of water inside .

Then I cover the pot for the yam to cook for 15 minutes.

While waiting for the yam to boil, i started getting my other ingredients ready. I will start by blending my fresh pepper.



I wash my pumpkin leaves, my onion. Then cut my pumpkin leaves into strips and chop my onion into tiny bits as well.



After 15 minutes.

I add my tomato paste.

I added my blended pepper.

I add my onion, mix all the ingredients together with my wooden stick and cover the pot to allow it cook for 20 minutes.



After 20 minutes, i add my oil.


I stir again with my wooden stick.

5 minutes after, i added my pumpkin leaves, salt, then i stirred and cooked for 60 seconds.



And my Nutritious Yam Porridge is Ready!!!
Wow! So appetizing 😋😋😋
