The last article i wrote on the african food is a simple way of enjoying the nutritional quality of the beans,my next one is actually a bean recipe too and i believe you can enjoy it all the protein in beans can be retrieved in various kind of ways.I really am somebody who do not like eating beans cooked in the normal way of preparing it, but if you are able to turn it around using your iniciatives then i will eat it with relish.

The Recipe:

1.Get you beans depending on the number of guest you want to make for.But at least get between 250g/llb-500g/llb.

2.1-2 cloves of onions .

3.Some fresh pepper(depending on how peperish you want you bean cake).

4.Some clean water (out of which you will boil some for mixing)

5.Some oil will be needed for mixing(either the palm oil or the normal oil:vegetable oil,groundnut oil etc.)

6.Some salt .

7.some fish or egg or corned beef, or whatever you will like to garnish you moin- moin with.

8.some containers(in africa we use the wide leaves to wrap the mixture before placing it in a large pot that is already on fire with water boiling.

But in case you can not get the leaves then look for some containers of foods that you have used in the past .Medium size container ,either plastic or tin container that will on the mixture and at the same time withstand the heat of the water.

Soak the beans in water for at least 7 minutes ,wash the beans removing all the covering(skin) on the beans till you get the white part of the beans.Grind the beans with the onions and pepper until it is smooth.Place a pot on the burner, add 2 cups of water in it and heat.,while the water is heating up mix your bean mixture with a turner,add some oil to the mixture, season the mixture, then garnish the mixture with any of the above mentioned garnishing foods or agents then use a spoon (either a table spoon or the kitchen spoon depending on how big you want it). Scoop the mixture into the the container at least to the middle and place the conatainer in the pot on fire while the water is boiling(put some oil in the container to coat it so as to make for easy removal of the moin-moin when it is done).Leave it on fire fore between 30minutes to 1hr,remove it and place the content in a plate for eating

A recipe as a hub, that is interesting. Funny name (moin-moin) but sound scrumptious. I'm asking my mom to make it.
