How do I even begin to tell the story of what inspired this recipe?. Well, to cut long story short; I was thinking, was I even thinking? 😂😂well, it was a thought. So let's leave like that. I made rice and palm oil stew as breakfast for everyone at home yesterday and at noon they had my delicious nsala soup and hot akpu. It was almost evening, but what I would make for dinner was not forthcoming to my mind. But then, my brother sent me an errand and a thought came to mind saying "Emryson! Why not make plantain pottage? " I quickly wrote down little things I needed and off I went to the market. Got everything and came out with delicious goodness 😍😍
