The Perfect Red Red Recipe (Ghanaian Black Eyed Beans, Fried Plantain And Zomi) By Fafa


Enjoy this classic Red Red recipe, a Vegetarian Ghanaian dish made from Beans and Plantain. Aptly named 'Red Red' due to the colour Palm Oil (Zomi) adds to the Beans and Plantain dish.
'Red red', a slang for black eyed beans cooked in a Palm oil stew in Ghana, is a popular dish.
450 g of Black eyed beans (soaked overnight in 1.5 litres of cold water)
1.20 l of water
2 large, thinly sliced banana shallots / white onions
4 large blended tomatoes
30 g of blended ginger
1 finely diced Habanero chili or 2 green chilies (optional)
Shrimp stock (Optional)
Salt and pepper to taste.
