What’s the name and story behind your signature dish?

The name and story behind my dish today is that plantains yam and sauce. Its a common food found in my locality. And is a healthy food good for both young and old. It's a big nourisable food that contains a lot of vitamins especially for the bones which helps in our daily activities.

Eating it every day whether fried, cooked eat with sauce or portage and vegetable can also still go well.

How does it reflect both your local roots and global imagination?

plantains is a good food commonly found in my place a lot of families have it within their garden and compounds. And is affordable.

What makes it stand out from every other dish you’ve made?

I don't really have the best when it comes to food because I believe that anything food is eatable and is good to the body. But I can say that what really makes it stands out from every other dish and other days I use to prepare it is because of the red oil use in preparing the sauce. Although it has a great taste but trying something different with red oil is great and I enjoy it.

If you could serve it to anyone in the world, who would it be and why?

I will like to serve it to my friends who have not tasted it before, and especially to those ones that are not from my country like @suboohi and m-fdo to have a taste of it. And other of my friends out there too how wish

Finally, food is the essential thing that helps humans to grow well. Especially Eating a healthy foods like plantains and I wish you out there can try it one day and see how enjoyable the taste can be.

I'm inviting my friend @okere blessings, @ruthjoe and @eveetim to join me in this contest.
