My love letter to all my African food loving vegans and vegetarians out there! This palava sauce recipe is nutritious, packed with iron and dietary fiber and a perfect recipe ready to be paired with green or ripened plantain, brown or white rice, sweet potatoes, yams, gari, cassava, quinoa, etc. Enjoy!!
Ingredients:
15 leaves of kontomire/taro leaves
2 medium red onions
1 fresno pepper sliced
2 carrots
salt to season
3 table spoons of virgin coconut oil
1 teaspoon ginger
1 clove of garlic
1 cup total of melon seeds (white and green)
4 roma tomatoes
about 2 cups of water
340 oz of tofu (soy bean curd)
2 table spoons of light soy sauce
a pinch of freshly crushed black peper
oil of preference for deep frying tofu (I used canola)

medaase! this is amazing! Kontomire was my favorite dish in Ghana. As a vegetarian I really appreciate what you've done here. I have to try this! The faux egg is genius as well. Now I wonder where I could get taro root leaves in Denver. :) Might try to grow some. I always miss Ghana. The most wonderful humans.
Great to see a vegetarian on this channel. Am also a proud one.
the leaves can be replaced with spinach
I love this ...finally a non greasy version and to top it off vegan at that...wow can't wait to share and make this for my family...yum! Thank you I love your cooking styles...👍🏼👍🏼
Palava Sauce looks so delicioous. Great video.
Thank your and much love!!
Yay, so excited for vegan recipes! I’m in love with your vegan black shito recipe. This looks great and I’m going to make it today.
Tnx for sharing keep it up dear very delicious and tasty
Oh wow we use this leave in Indian cooking! My mum uses it. I had no idea that it was the same leaf used in palava sauce!
I like what she did with the tofu, I could use that in my other dishes. Excited to try it.
Glad to know you love the tofu preparation! Thank you for watching and commenting!!
I have learned so much from you, I am Mexican married to a ghanian and I never there to cook like back home, but with your help (step-by-step step) my husband loved everything. Light soup, kontomerie , Okra stew, and cauliflower banks! Thanks!!!!
Thanks so much for sharing!
Thank you also so much for staying engaged!! Very much appreciated!
Very tasty sauce. Stay in touch.
Good meal. Thx Na..
Great job👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you sweet Agnes!!
Nana Aba, you are the greatest! I thoroughly enjoy your videos and have learned a lot. You are replicating many of the dishes I've eaten in Ghana and given me more insight on how to prepare them traditionally, thank you so much. Red palm oil enhances brain function and is high in Vit A, among other benefits. Coconut oil and palm oils were getting a bad rap until recently. I enjoy embracing ancient traditions and the wisdom of our ancestors. Being a vegetarian, I liked the added tofu also. "Wya die."
Thank you so much Akua 🙏🏽😘 I must say, I share same sentiments ❤️
Another great recepie! Yumm😊 You are doing great dear friend💕💕💕💕👍
Oh yes I want to eat that! I love the plantain Idea😍

Looks delicious!..I see Taro Leaves at my local market, so I must try your recipe.
Your videos are very good, yummy ingredients, and the presentation is so relaxed and informative.
Thanks Nana🌷
Thank you so much Sharon! Your support is greatly appreciated!
I think this was a good start, but where are the seasonings: cayenne, curry/turmeric, thyme etc.? Will be looking forward to more videos :)
Thank you for your feedback! I love cooking with the spices you mentioned when needed. In fact, you’ll find that I’ve incorporated such in most of my recipes on this channel. Much love!
Is taro leave thesame with cocoyam leave?
Looks yummy, please where can l get nkotomire in the U.S
Genevieve, I bought mine from an oriental store. They usually carry a lot of different fresh produce.
I don’t know if I can find kontomire/taro leafs in the Netherlands 😫
You may substitute with spinach. Even I do that sometimes as the kontonmire is seasonal.
I bought mine today at the Haagse Markt. They sell some there.
The 22 dislikes do not know how to cook 🤫🤫
Lol! Thank you dear 🙏🏾😘
Is egusi optional?
Yes, it is 🙏🏽
Nanaba please what is that thing u fried, is it meat. Thank u
Florence, it is a soy beans curd known as tofu.
Nana pls where can I get kontomire to buy in USA? Which store pls?
I picked mine up from a vietamese/ Asian store called "Lee Lee's" in Chandler AZ. Most Asian super markets stock them. They are called "taro leaves" at these stores.
Agnes Dapaah Potakey you can get it in most of grocery store but with the name spinach it same Kontomire is that or any other synonyms
Agnes Dapaah Potakey Don’t kn which state but in NJ It’s common thank you
Spinach
Never seen any here in Virginia, and I've been here for 20yrs (almost) 🤦🏾♀️
at last! I won't be a disgrace to the family for not eating meat!
😇😇😋😋😋😋😋😋😋🥰🥰🥰🥰🤗🤗 you're too much beautiful mummy
oh i just remembered you don't have a chin chin recipe in your channel and i was like how come? am waiting on you aunty Nanaaba with your chin chin recipe with your twick and twist. thanks in advance
Where will I get toofoo to buy ghana
You can make your own tofu
@@JosyRock1 can you please educate me on how to make the Tofu
I really like it but my throat itches anytime i eat it
That means you’re allergic to it. You must stay away from it. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
OK tanx
I like ur cooking but u always talk a lot before u start cooking
Freda, there’s been a lot of growth in this channel and I encourage you to search for the growth and hopefully, your next comment will lean more toward the positive and up building side of things🙏🏾 Check these videos out, there’s less talking th-cam.com/video/Me9r-Fb_DOk/w-d-xo.html, th-cam.com/video/Lv8_s9l8nyk/w-d-xo.html,
Freda Boateng looool
Nonsense. Then skip it. Some people are just ridiculous
Not to criticise, but we never add carrots to palaver sauce, unless you are reinventing the wheel
Says who mchewwwwwww.... she used coconut oil and added Tofu too and so??? unnecessary comment instead of learning something new and adding to what you know you there complaining that we never add carrots. Learn to learn something new.
@@sweetierene I love your statement allow her to stay black
