Method

Preparation time: ca. 15 min / Grade of difficulty: easy / Calories per portion: n/a

Plantains:

Wash and rinse the plantain with its skin still on. Peel the plantain and cube it. Heat the oil and deep fry the cubes until they are lightly browned. Remove the cubes from the oil and let them drain on paper towels. While still warm, sprinkle the plantain cubes with salt and serve.

Pork Chops in Peanut Stew:

Heat peanut oil in a pot, add meat and seal for 1 minute each side. Place all other ingredients into the pot except for the peanut butter. Bring to a boil and then simmer until the aubergine is cooked and the meat is tender. (Approximately 20 minutes). Remove Pork Chops and keep warm. Add in the peanut butter and stir well to blend into the liquid. (Remove from the heat to avoid sticking to the bottom of the pot). Serve Pork Chops covered with stew and plantains aside.
