BUTTERY GARLIC PROVISIONS

Ingredients

½ lb yam, parboiled and peeled

1 large dasheen, parboiled and peeled

2 sweet potatoes, parboiled and peeled

¾ cup fresh sliced mushrooms

4 – 5 cloves garlic, finely chopped

1 large red or green sweet pepper, seeded and chopped

1 tbsp green seasoning

4 oz butter

1 tsp red pepper flakes or pepper sauce

Directions

1. Cut the provisions into equal sized chunks about 1-inch.

3. Add the mushrooms and peppers and cook for a few minutes until tender. Add the red pepper flakes and green seasoning. Season with a little salt and black pepper.
