INGREDIENTS
1 cup cooked Pigeon Peas (170g)
0.75 cup cooked Brown Rice (140g)
0.5 medium Plantain (70g), sliced
2 large Eggs
1/4 small Red Onion, thinly sliced
1 clove Garlic, minced
Spices (Cumin, Paprika, Black Pepper, Salt) to taste
PREPARATION
In a medium saucepan, prepare brown rice according to package instructions until tender.
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, lightly sauté the red onion and minced garlic until translucent.
Add the cooked pigeon peas to the skillet along with a pinch of cumin, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine and let the flavors meld for 2 minutes.
In a separate non-stick pan, caramelize the plantain slices on medium-low heat. Allow them to cook slowly until golden brown and soft, turning occasionally.
Gently fold the cooked brown rice into the pigeon pea mixture, ensuring even distribution of spices and aromatics.
In the same pan or another small skillet, fry the eggs to your liking without adding extra oil, or use non-stick spray.
To plate, serve a generous portion of the pigeon pea rice, top with the caramelized plantains and place the fried eggs on top. Garnish with an extra pinch of black pepper if desired.
