600g dried black-eyed peas 
Red-Red Preparation:Method:Wash the black eyed peas then soak in water over night. After soaking rub the peas between your hands to remove the skins then rinse to wash away those skins. Drain in a colander then tip into a large pot and add just enough water to cover them. Bring to a slow boil then cover and simmer for about 45 minutes or until the black-eyed peas are tender. Meanwhile heat oil in a frying pan, add the onions and cook them until slightly browned. Add the chillies and fry for a few minutes more before adding the tomatoes. Mash the mixture to a sauce then add to the black-eyed peas. Add your bouillon or Maggi cubes and simmer for 10 minutes. Add salt, black pepper to taste. Cook for a few minutes more then serve with fried plantains. |
