Yes am in love with eating vegetables. So I make it in different ways. In this particular recipe i add raw melon seed or peanut paste, whichever one u have is ok but the taste is slightly different from each other. I used smoked fish but you can use fresh fish, dry fish, beef, cow skin, chicken or what have you? I also love the hint of cumin and white pepper. I prefer pairing it with boiled unripe plantain but u can eat it the way you like. Other suggestions are potatoes, rice, yam and ripe plantains or even corn meal (corn fufu). Use the one you have, it's ok...
