Red-red with black beans and spinach; raspberry and pomegranate sorbet


Red-red with black beans and spinach (tomatoes, red onion, palm oil, black beans, spinach, plaintains, wine vinegar, chili, sea salt, black pepper, vegetable stock). Raspberry and pomegranate sorbet (raspeberries, pomegranate juice, stevia).

Red-red is a Ghanian dish usually made with congo peas or black eye peas instead of black beans. The improvisation here is really the spinach, making the whole of the dish red (tomatoes, onions, palm oil and chili), black (black beans), green (spinach) and gold (the plantains).
