Ghanian Redred
From exitmusic384 14 years agoIngredients
- 1 1/2 cups dried black eye peas shopping list
- 2 tsp cayenne pepper shopping list
- 1/2 cup palm oil (or olive oil - palm oil might be difficult to find in North America) shopping list
- 2 tsp salt shopping list
- 1 large white onion, chopped shopping list
- 6 cups water shopping list
- 2 tomatoes, pureed shopping list
- 1 tbsp ginger, ground shopping list
- 2 vegetable boullion cubes shopping list
- 3 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
- 1 green pepper, chopped shopping list
How to make it
- Boil peas in 5 cups of water for approx. 45 minutes. Do not drain.
- Meanwhile, place 1/2 cup oil over heat. Place the blended tomato and half of the chopped onion in the oil.
- Add 1 cup water to the mix and bring to a boil.
- Add cayenne pepper, ginger, salt, garlic, and boullion cubes. Allow to simmer several minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add in the green pepper and remaining onion. Allow mixture to boil 15 minutes.
- Stir in peas and simmer for 10 minutes.
- To fry the plantains, cut them into slices about a finger-width thick and boil in a large pot of oil deep enough to cover the plaintain slices completely until they are crisp, like chips. I would recommend doing this as early as possible, as it may take up to half an hour to do.
- Use the plaintain chips as a scoop for the redred, or substitute plantains for bread or sliced of cooked sweet potato.
