Hello everyone, Welcome once again to my blog.

Today, I made a simple recipe for lunch to enjoy with my siblings and felt it would be great to share with the Vegan and Hive community as a whole.

The recipe is similar to plantain hush but with a little twist since I included a small quantity of yam. I have enjoyed this recipe several times and never regretted giving it a try back then. It is a quick, tasty meal, very economical and nutritious as well.

  • 750g of plantain 

  • 300g of yam

  • 3 pieces of carrot 

  • 1 piece of bell pepper 

  • 3 sticks of spring onions.

  • ½ teaspoon of salt 

  • 400 ml of groundnut oil

  • 1 piece of ginger

  • 10g of chili powder

  • 30g of kidney beans 

The procedure is quite easy, and you definitely do not need to be a pro before trying it out. The best of it is that it doesn't take time to make this magic.

I started by rinsing the back of the plantains.

 

I removed the back of the plantain and cut them into smaller sizes.

I peeled the back of the yam as well and cut them into smaller sizes.

I moved on to frying the plantain and yam. I heated the groundnut oil in the frying pan.

I fried the plantain first, and the yam came next.

While frying, I went on to process the other ingredients.

I cut the carrots into smaller bits.

I chopped the spring onion.

 

I chopped the ginger.

 

I chopped the bell pepper.

  

By the time I was done frying, I had finished processing the remaining ingredients.


I removed the groundnut oil from the frying pan and poured just a little that would be enough to fry the remaining ingredients.

I heated the little oil and turned the carrot in the pan.

I added the kidney beans and stirred the contents in the pan.

I diluted the chili powder in 40 ml of water and turned it in the pan.

Ginger and bell pepper joined the party.

I added ½ teaspoon of salt and stirred the ingredients. I allowed them to fry for three minutes under low heat.

I turned the fried yam and plantain in the pan. I stirred the ingredients and made sure they mixed properly with the yam and plantain.

The spring onion came in last, and I mixed all the ingredients together again.

I allowed the ingredients to fry again while stirring for another three minutes under low heat, and my lunch is ready.

I served my lunch and really enjoyed the meal. Let me know what you think about the recipe in the comment section.
