Plantain is a staple ingredient in the Nigerian menu and it definitely had to feature in our valentines series. The sweet flavours of the plantain and coconut infused with the savoury taste of shrimps ought to get your significant other inspired and loving you. I recommend that the men make this dish by the way. It is simple enough and your wife would love you for it. It also leaves your house smelling really fancy like you made this super gourmet dish.
