Potato remains a very simple and affordable food item and the wonders that can be made with it, cannot be over-emphasized.
Chef Ofe Fadeyi was on TVC’s Wake Up Nigeria to show us the simple steps to making Irish Potatoes with minced meat sauce.
Note that the nutritional content of potatoes can vary depending on the variety and how they are prepared. For example, frying potatoes adds more calories and fat than baking them. It’s also important to know that the skin of potatoes contains a great amount of vitamins and minerals; peeling potatoes can significantly reduce their nutritional content. Don’t also forget that meat is an excellent source of various vitamins and minerals. These include vitamin B12, zinc, selenium, iron, niacin, and vitamin B6. So you see? You are about to consume a really healthy meal.
The ingredients:
- Irish potatoes
