Liberian Potato Greens, rubbed and fried...SoeFoods

Rubbed (sweet potato greens) greens are so delicious, once you try them, you'll always want more. The work behind cooking Liberian food in general, especially potato greens is always tough, but its worth all the time. Not just because its tasty, but because it also has all the nutrition you need. Iron, Zinc, Folate, Protein, Fiber and much more.
As you'll see in this video, the typical meat of choice in a Liberian household are hard chicken, smoked turkey, sometimes chicken feet(paws), and since this is fried I added some fried fish..........
thanks to all of you who showed me love on my very first video!!!

[@SoeFoods]

I'm glad to be of help mama I cooked it another 10 mins

[@That1Grl_]

How long did you boil your meats before you put it in the greens

[@draperlinebirch9311]

It depends on the meat. Fresh cut butcher meats like hard chicken should be pre boiled for about an hour other meats like chicken feet wings fish 20-30 meats. You have to check them frequently make sure it doesn’t get soft otherwise it will fall apart once you add it to green. You want to precook meats so that it’s not too hard and you won’t have to cook greens for long. The baking soda also helps to soften greeens and make them less rough.

[@khrystenadangawali6058]

It turned out great but what’s the purpose of rubbing baking soda on the greens?

[@khrystenadangawali6058]

Gotcha thanks!

[@TeannaG-d5l]

What oil do you use?

[@SoeFoods]

Vegetable oil

[@amberday3918]

Looks so damn good!! what kind of fish do you use???

[@SoeFoods]

It's called Pompano..I've only seen it mostly at Asian stores

[@kyishasteward6250]

I think I put to much liquid from the meat into the potato greens and it’s not drying, can you tell me how I can make them dry? Also think you for this recipe

[@SoeFoods]

Hey Kyisha, you'll just need to be patient and let it cook down in this case. You can also increase the heat a little bit

[@kyishasteward6250]

@@SoeFoods hi I’m back lol I’m making this again and I need more seasonings… is it ok to add more seasonings to the pot after the greens are finished?

[@SoeFoods]

@@kyishasteward6250 add the seasonings just before the liquid dries, maybe the last 5 minutes

[@kyishasteward6250]

@@SoeFoods ok thank you

[@oedmond4]

Do you clean the frozen potato leaves the same as the fresh?

[@SoeFoods]

I clean the greens when fresh, cut, steam, and freeze. After that you can't wash them

[@ngoziakpunonu2317]

please where can I find potato green in surulere Lagos Nigeria

[@SoeFoods]

Hmm sorry but I'm in the US, I have no clue about the Nigerian market

[@karineflowers2727]

Those chicken feet looks yummy.

[@olatokunbohashiru7836]

I had fallen in love with this rubbed greens. Please I hope medically the baking soda don't get to much. Thanks

[@SoeFoods]

The baking soda shouldn't be a problem. But you can start with 1/4 tsp if you're worried about it and see

[@olatokunbohashiru7836]

Thanks

[@weathamorris4251]

You don't really need the baking because it softens the greens just don't add too much liquids.

[@Ifyshalom1]

Hi Soe, where can I find this food here in London?

[@SoeFoods]

Oh dear I wish I knew..I'm sorry but I have no clue

[@Ifyshalom1]

thank you for getting back to me on that! We were in Liberia a few months ago visiting some friends, that was where we had this lovely green potato stew on white rice. ( it was like heaven on earth ) we looked for this meal here in london, but only Nigeria, Ghana, Senegal,and Sierra leon restaurants are here, and they all cook similar dishes, or something close to the British palate. we will try to cook it at home following your recipe. finding a green potato green leaves here will be quite daunting. my daughter, and we all, really want to have this dish again. incase I cant find potato greens, what other vegetables can I use in its place? thank you again.

[@winstonbancroft9000]

U can use spinach if u don't see the potatoes green 👍

thank you, Winston.

Cassava leaf?

Potato greens

[@XxStrattaGxX]

What's is the difference? Does it taste different?

[@SoeFoods]

@@XxStrattaGxX they're the leaves of two different roots..cassava and sweet potato

[@XxStrattaGxX]

@@SoeFoods okay thank you

[@ThinkEagle7]

Why rubbing the potato leaves.

[@SoeFoods]

Because of the cut size and to rub the soda on before frying

[@ThinkEagle7]

@@SoeFoods yeah but that's the question. What is the purpose of rubbing the leaves with baking soda?

[@SoeFoods]

@@ThinkEagle7 the soda helps to soften the larger cut size. Plus it's just a different version of fried greens. The soda is not necessarily a need

[@jartukah6047]

I need the ingredients pls

[@edwinarmignon9882]

isn't that a lot of baking soda??? with that amount of baking soda, leaves an after taste.

[@SoeFoods]

No after taste for this recipe, at least to me

[@raquelforh5514]

Your son is a Liberian even if he was born here. He hasn’t had any Liberian food because you mentioned that you want him to experience Liberian food.

[@SoeFoods]

He actually eats Liberian food all the time, he just doesn't like it spicy
