He steamed some pop-choy, sweet red bell peppers and saute some basil, cilantro, onions, tomatoes and garlic in a little olive oils. While that was all cooking , he boiled some eddoes, sweet plantain, corn and carrots. The sauteed vegetables went over the ground provisions (root vegetables) to complete the dish, all I can say is satisfying and delicious.

They can be prepared as one or two items or a combination of items. It's like having a starch served with a main entree.
