  PLANTAIN AND POTATO PORRIDGE

INGREDIENTS 

•Quantity  depends on food portion

. Spring onions 

. Carrots

. Green pepper 

. Red pepper 

. Garlic

. Seasoning cubes ( knorr, royco or preferred spice)

. Spinach leaves 'Green' (optional)

. Irish potatoes 

. Sweet potatoes 

. Unripe plantain 

. Fish / chicken / beef /assorted meat

• Chop green pepper and carrot in horizontal chunks to avoid thinness of the porridge, dice red pepper spring onion , spinach leaves 'green' and grate garlic, put in different clean bowls

• Chop unripe plantain, sweet potato, Irish potato into big chunks and put in separate bowls

• Get a big bowl with a lid; put  chicken/ fish/ beef / assorted meat in it, add grated garlic, diced red pepper and onion, seasoning cubes (knorr, royco, or any seasoning) , chopped unripe plantain and sweet potato to the bowl ( do not add Irish potato as it cooks faster than unripe plantain and sweet potato) 

• Mix the ingredients in the bowl (preferably with hands, avoid mashing it) and marinate  for 10 minutes. 

   Marinating can be done by covering the bowl with its lid and leaving in a fridge or freezer for 10 minutes or putting content in a ziplock for 10 minutes ( I marinate in my cooking pot)

   if you don't have ten minutes to spare u can cook     right away with the lowest heat and increase heat after 3mins

• Pour content in a pot, add little water and cover pot and allow to boil, after few minutes add carrots, green pepper  and Irish potato and leave to boil for 5 more minutes, reduce heat and add spinach leaves 'green', stir carefully and turn off heat. 

Food is ready!! :) 

• Serve it out and decorate plate/ food with any left over ingredient ( Carrot, green pepper, spring onion ) I used the stalk of spring onion.
