See what I made out of Irish potatoes || Dreemport challenge.

Hello, foodies Bee Hive community! I am glad to join in today in sharing my food delights with everyone. The ongoing Dreemport challenge was my inspiration for presenting this dish I tried out today. My family is a lover of different species of potatoes, especially sweet potatoes. We make different kinds of meals out of it, both for breakfast and lunch. Aside from using Irish potatoes for chips, I haven't used them for porridge. It never occurred to me that it would come out nice until I tried it today! Should I call it an adventure? Perhaps I should.

This is actually an easy meal to prepare and the recipes are simple. Both Irish and sweet potatoes are packed with nutrients such as minerals and vitamins and it's a very healthy meal especially when you spice it up with other healthy ingredients. I will share with you the steps I took in preparing this porridge potatoes and the ingredients I used in preparing it.

Recipe

  • Irish potatoes
  • veggies (pumpkin leaf)
  • fish
  • Red oil
  • Maggie
  • crayfish
  • fresh peppers 🌶️
  • grounded ginger
  • Onion
  • Salt

The first step I took was to peel the Irish potatoes,wash them thoroughly, and cook them until they were soft. I also added salt while boiling it to enhance its taste. When the potatoes were done, I sieved them and set them aside to prepare the sauce.

Preparing the sauce is an easy step, especially when you have all your ingredients ready. The first step I took here was to heat up my pot and then add the red oil.

I allowed the red oil to heat up a bit before adding my sliced onions.

I love to add ginger to most of my meals since I discovered its health benefits. So I bought ground ginger at once for easy reach. Alright, let's continue. When the onion was fried a bit, I added the grounded ginger and stirred the mix.

I did a rough blend of my fresh peppers and crayfish and added them as well.

I deboned my fish to add, added Maggie, and added a little salt to taste since I already added some while boiling the Irish potatoes, after which I stirred thoroughly to avoid the sauce sticking in my pot.

At this stage, I tasted the sauce and confirmed that all ingredients were okay, and I had my boiled Irish potatoes poured inside the sauce. I gently turned it to have a uniform mix.

Adding my sliced veggies was the last step I took. In order not to lose its nutrients, I added the veggies, covered the pot for two minutes, and turned off the light. It's just that simple to prepare your healthy, delicious Irish potato porridge.

Finally, my Irish potato porridge is ready for consumption! It's yummy, and it's delicious.

I love it whenever veggies are added to meals. Apart from the nutritional benefits, it makes the food look really appetizing and yummmmy.

I've never tried making porridge with Irish potato either but I'm certain it would be really delicious.

Your food has made me hungry again Nkem dear😂

I came in from #dreemport.

Growing your potatoes? That's great to hear. Sweet potatoes can be white or red but Irish potatoes here are usually white in colour
Thanks for your nice time on my blog
