Getting my 11-month old to eat can be tiring; however, she
enjoys taking pap, so I prepare soybeans powder at home to
mix with the pap together with milk in order to provide her with the necessary nutrients needed for a growing baby.
enjoys taking pap, so I prepare soybeans powder at home to

REQUIREMENTS:
Soybeans (5cups)
Unripe plantain (2)
Groundnuts- already fried (1 cup)
Note: you can add crayfish and cashew nuts too
PREPARATION:
1. Select the soybeans to remove stone and dirt, wash and allow to dry
2. Peel the plantain, cut into flat chips and sun-dry. (I had to dry mine properly in a dry pot over fire)
3. Pour the soybeans in a dry pot and fry; fry till the skin can be easily peeled off. Its brown and crispy just like fried ground nuts when done
4. Take to the mill for grinding (at the mill, it will be slightly processed to remove the skin/chaf ). Add the groundnuts and plantain to the clean soybeans and grind to powder
5. The soybeans powder is ready for your little one!
6. Store in an air-tight container
