In a previous post I shared my Bambara Beans and sweet ripened Plantain Akara (Beans & Plantain Fritters) recipe. I used half of the blended mixture for the fritters and the remaining half for a steamed version.
The blended and naturally flavoured batter was wrapped in Thaumatococcus Danielli (Green Leaves) and steamed. You can use either Plantain or Banana leaves instead.
In the absence of the above leaves you can use moulds as shown in the traditional MoinMoin recipe below;
INGREDIENTS
250g of Bambara Beans / ChickPeas
200ml of Water
2 medium sized over ripened Plantain
3 medium sized Onions

Half a medium sized Yellow Bell Peppers
1 teaspoon of Salt to taste
FLAVOURED PALM OIL
4 tablespoonful of Zomi or Palm Oil

Serve this steamed Beans and Plantain pudding with a chilled glass of Lemonade or Watermelon Lemonade (both recipes are available on my YouTube channel, ‘Ndudu by Fafa’).
