Please share the recipe

This is not my best meal but hope the recipe will help you out.



Enjoy dear.

Phut:

Please share the recipe

Ingredients:::

*2 Onions
*Red Oil (3 cooking spoons)
*3 medium sized Pepper
*Oil Bean "Ugba"(1 medium wrap)
*Fresh Maize (5 milk cups)
*Cowpea "Vigna unguiculata"(6 milk cups) *Scent leaves "Nchuawun"(A bunch)
*Bitter leaves "Onugbu"(A handful)
*2 Seasoning Cubes
*Salt to taste

Procedure:::

- Soak the cowpeas for about 12hours preferably Over-night prior to when you are going to cook. This helps reduce the cooking time as the peas take a very long time to soften.

-Wash the peas and place in a pot of water then leave to cook for about 1hr 30mins - 2hours

-While the peas cook, wash the maize and Mill lightly ( Not into a paste but into small Bread like crumbs then place into a large foil and wrap tightly then set aside.

-About 40minutes before the cooking time of the cowpea elapses, Add the seasoning cubes and salt and leave to cook till the water reduces a little. At this point, place the foil wrapped maize into the pot of peas and leave to steam then turn off the burner.

-In a different pot, pour in the palm oil and leave to bleach for about 3minutes then, pour in the chopped onions, pepper, Ugba(Oil bean) and leave to fry for 5mins.

-Reduce the burner to medium heat then pour in the steamed maize and Boiled cow peas into the fried onions and pepper and stir to incorporate the mixture together.

-Add the washed Bitter leaves and Scent leaves, stir and leave to cook for about 10minutes

-Turn off the burner and serve
