About Plantain and dry fish pottage
Plantain and Dry Fish Pottage is a hearty dish rooted in West African cuisine, celebrated for its rich, earthy flavors and satisfying texture. Traditionally made with ripe or unripe plantains, smoked or dried fish, palm oil, onions, tomatoes, and aromatic spices, this pottage showcases a harmonious blend of sweet, savory, and smoky notes. The plantains provide essential vitamins such as vitamin A and potassium, supporting eye health and muscle function. Dry fish contributes lean protein and omega-3 fatty acids, promoting heart health and brain function. However, the use of palm oil, while adding depth and color, is calorie-dense and high in saturated fats, which should be consumed in moderation. With its nutrient-packed ingredients, this dish offers a balance of flavor and sustenance, making it a popular comfort food that remains deeply connected to its cultural roots.
