Hullop! No one has asked me to make food lately but, everyone miss me for not making sumptuous recipes. Since it was a bright afternoon, I put together all my recovered energy from malaria which struck me down and thought of how to make the best noodle recipe with scentleaf and plantain like a super chef.
Yes! I garnished noodles with plantain-not fried plantain as in dodo nor plantain chips-and the noodles came out absolutely fabulous that you definitely do not want to not try it.
However, at first preparation, I must confess that the meal tasted of too much seasonings. Hence, I took it back to the kitchen, transferred into the sauce pan and added about 1/2 cup of water which re-cooked the meal properly and made it perfect.
See recipe below.
