Breadfruit Oil Down

You guys requested something amazing! Something that seemed a bit difficult was extremely easy. I truly enjoyed this dish. It’s a dish that’s just packed with local produce and its very versatile. Provisos can be added and additional vegetables can be added. Having it for the first time I would describe it as this flavorful, creamy and just melt in your mouth kind of dish. I was really surprised and after learning more about the fruit with Dr Roberts Nkrumah I will definitely be making a lot more dishes with the fruit. She helped me to understand the various ways in which we can use the fruit so I urge you to keep buying breadfruit and exploring yourself. As always, another simple recipe that you can enjoy. 🙂
