0:39
something about this recipe all right
0:41
these recipes that you'll see me share
0:44
with you
0:44
are simple they're light they're
0:47
inexpensive
0:48
and they are um great recipes to share
0:51
with your family i think that you'll
0:52
have a
0:53
very satisfied household um again very
0:56
easy so let's get started
0:58
the the bank the money bank and it
1:00
doesn't break the time
1:01
bank absolutely true um i like to uh to
1:04
use fresh ingredients when i can
1:06
and occasionally i'll use canned canned
1:08
ingredients if i've got to
1:10
whatever the situation may be but i've
1:12
uh started with one large
1:14
sweet potato okay we've just cut it and
1:17
and we've got it into just uniform
1:19
shapes here you see how we've cut it
1:21
and i put this into a saucepan
1:25
uh and covered it with water and boiled
1:28
it for about two minutes until it was
1:29
just tender that was the first step in
1:31
the recipe so the sweet potatoes are
1:32
just tender and the recipe the rest of
1:34
the recipe is going to come together
1:36
really quickly so dokie let's get our
1:38
skillet
1:46
well your pot is not on i turned it off
1:48
well let me tell you something
1:50
okay tell me something bobby dean good
1:53
grief
1:56
i always you are not too big for me to
1:59
put you over my knee
2:01
and spank you okay
2:04
so i always pour my oils
2:08
into a cold pan i don't ever pull it
2:11
into a hot pan because um i don't like
2:14
to scorch it i don't like for it to be
2:16
to pop and immediately be fire hot
2:20
i turn i turn most of the things that i
2:23
cook on a stovetop
2:24
i uh start on a real low with a simmer
2:27
or
2:27
or on low just to just to get the pan
2:30
ready to receive whatever
2:32
isn't that funny we've all got our ways
2:33
because i like a hot hot
2:35
well depending on what i went to a hot
2:37
hot hot hot pan
2:38
well no i get the oil hot i just like
2:42
depending on what i'm cooking if i've
2:44
got cooking meats i like it pretty high
2:47
but this is not my recipe
2:50
it's my precious little boys man my boy
2:54
my man 51 april precious little boy
2:58
well son if as long as i call you a boy
3:01
all right so who makes mama a girl got
3:03
one purple onion
3:05
yes all right did you have you put them
3:08
all in it
3:10
i wasn't listening they're with me i
3:13
know it but i want listen and i think
3:15
that's something else
3:18
okay let's look at the recipe i don't
3:19
want to look at the recipe i've read
3:21
your recipes it's a beautiful recipe yes
3:25
started out with the sweet potato in a
3:27
medium saucepan we boiled the sweet
3:29
potato just kind of a far boil
3:31
and in a small bowl we're going to whisk
3:34
together some corn starch mama this is
3:35
you
3:36
okay have a small
3:39
bowl hold on okay perfect oh no you got
3:42
a glass bowl right now
3:43
even better oh no i love those little
3:45
plastic bowls i'm just
3:47
uh unwrapping your shrimp son
3:50
we are going to these are beautiful
3:53
whisk
3:54
together three quarters of a cup of
3:56
teriyaki so it's gonna take them out
3:58
okay and all right is this going to
4:00
start
4:03
okey-dokey i'll be doing that for you
4:06
and we've got garlic and
4:10
uh chipotle that's right
4:13
but we're going to add those to the
4:14
skillet okay oh the the
4:16
chipotle you're just going to whisk
4:18
together the cornstarch from the
4:19
teriyaki
4:20
okay gotcha and then we'll add the rest
4:23
to the skillet
4:26
okay
4:28
nothing like the smell of onions and a
4:30
little bit of oil on the stovetop they
4:31
just immediately smell
4:33
you know be great you could dice up some
4:37
bacon
4:37
and onions and put them on your stove
4:40
and there's not a
4:41
better house deodorant than that smells
4:45
it smells wonderful okay so this is
4:49
mixed up son
4:58
so uh your onions are going pretty
5:01
pretty good
5:01
so we're gonna add in the sweet potato
5:04
okay
5:05
all right and chipotle
5:08
seasoning and the garlic now that
5:11
chipotle it's a little hot isn't it
5:13
it's uh i like it to me it's not hot
5:16
it's more flavorful than hot yeah to me
5:18
i like it all right now when you add
5:20
your garlic
5:22
burns garlic bones sure does
5:28
so we want to make sure
5:31
we wash that there's your wooden spoon
5:33
if you
5:35
yeah i prefer it worried about a
5:37
beautiful combination
5:38
of ingredients i know sweet potatoes and
5:41
your babies love sweet potatoes
5:43
so if you fix something like this for
5:45
them you might want to back off on the
5:47
chipotle i i don't think that i
5:48
i think that i would um i would
5:51
rearrange this
5:52
dish for them yeah i think i would leave
5:54
out the onion in that chipotle
5:56
i don't know cloud cloud uh gives them
5:59
onions
5:59
so if you could smell this dish mama
6:02
mentioned bacon earlier that chipotle
6:04
together with the onion and the garlic
6:06
it almost does have a little bit of a
6:08
of a bacony smell to it incredible it
6:11
just smells
6:12
so so nice so again um to recap we
6:15
parboiled the sweet potatoes okay so
6:17
they weren't just raw
6:19
we boiled them in a saucepan for about
6:21
three minutes
6:22
with water covered with water and a
6:24
little sea salt
6:25
and um just parboiled them for about
6:27
three minutes and got them nice and
6:28
tender
6:29
okay once we added we added canola oil
6:32
we're using canola not olive we added
6:34
canola oil to a skillet
6:36
and heated it up and then we added the
6:38
purple onion
6:39
put the sweet potato back in we added a
6:41
little bit of
6:43
garlic some chipotle and
6:46
um what am i missing the chipotle and um
6:51
well that's all we've added yeah soy
6:52
sauce and cornstarch
6:54
that's right chipotle onions and garlic
6:57
the slurry that's right there you go
6:59
all right so what what do you add next
7:01
let's go ahead and add in
7:03
um the pineapple okay
7:06
you want it all right let's have it
7:10
and now i use if you can get it it's
7:11
such a beautiful combination right here
7:13
yeah sweet potatoes and pineapple
7:15
and something that you want them yeah
7:16
there you go use that rubber band
7:19
yeah so you don't tear up your uh sweet
7:21
potato or your pineapple you don't want
7:22
this to be a pulpy mess you want
7:24
everything
7:25
to remain intact so um try to fold these
7:28
ingredients together rather than
7:30
you know all right try to avoid matte
7:31
let's see all we have to do now is cook
7:33
the shrimp
7:34
right that's good and we'll add this
7:36
flurry in so
7:37
uh those shrimp we'll put in for the
7:39
last couple of minutes okay well i just
7:41
started putting them in
7:42
add the periodical mixture in okay
7:49
so how many ever people you're cooking
7:51
for y'all
7:52
would determine uh how much
7:55
shrimp and potato that you would use
8:00
all right let's let that cook for just a
8:02
minute
8:04
now you could add in if you wanted to
8:06
you could wait and add in the pineapple
8:08
until
8:08
the end um
8:12
you could sort of do this in whatever
8:13
order that you wanted to but one thing
8:15
that i would make sure to do
8:16
is i would add the shrimp in the last
8:18
couple of minutes because you don't want
8:19
it your recipe
8:20
calls to adam at first it's not exactly
8:23
it's not exactly right
8:25
yeah anybody who knows shrimp knows that
8:27
you don't want to overcook it you don't
8:28
want it to be rubbery and you don't want
8:30
it to go to waste so
8:32
add those shrimp in when you've only got
8:33
a couple of minutes left in your dish
8:35
and uh the pineapple too you could leave
8:37
that pineapple out and only cook it for
8:39
a minute or so if you wanted to
8:41
so let's pour that slurry in there that
8:43
you made with the teriyaki and the
8:44
cornstarch
8:46
okay and uh and let that roll for a
8:48
couple of minutes
8:50
okay and this is we're almost we're
8:52
almost ready here
8:54
so one of the uh the common thread with
8:56
all the recipes that you're gonna see me
8:58
share with you here on mama's show is
9:01
that they're gonna be
9:02
simple okay and to the point they're
9:05
gonna be
9:06
most usually they'll be inexpensive uh
9:09
the ingredients will all be things that
9:10
you can find in your local grocery store
9:11
so they won't be complicated
9:13
and they'll definitely be affordable
9:14
dishes the most expensive thing here
9:16
is the uh is the shrimp but you know
9:18
what we talk about this all the time
9:20
we're so fortunate to live here in
9:22
beautiful savannah georgia and we have
9:23
access to great local seafood
9:25
and shrimp is plentiful here as well but
9:27
you could always substitute
9:29
chicken of course yeah you could use
9:32
chicken or
9:32
if they were if you had a favorite kind
9:34
of fish
9:36
like a white fish that uh that you could
9:38
do in
9:39
um like like i'm thinking maybe like
9:41
flounder you know what i mean something
9:43
that you could have in
9:44
sort of pieces
9:49
we're tilapia of course before doing it
9:53
but you know the key is to just use your
9:56
imagination
9:56
do whatever you like if you if you make
9:58
a recipe and it doesn't turn out
10:00
well then you know try again
10:04
but this is going to turn out yes that's
10:06
going to turn out yeah this rag is
10:08
sitting right here waiting on you
10:11
all right we had a little green i know
10:15
i know usually your recipes have some
10:17
kind of green in them
10:18
but we should have uh have a little
10:21
cilantro to top this with which is green
10:25
[Music]
10:26
parsley but chipotle i mean um
10:31
all right hot what am i trying to say i
10:34
just said it
10:35
very hot very very hot cilantro true
10:38
look at that
10:40
this is beautiful now
10:43
to be completely honest we added a pad
10:46
of butter right there at the last minute
10:48
and that might have
10:49
added a little bit of extra seasoning a
10:52
little golden brown
10:53
wow i didn't mind you doing it oh i
10:55
didn't either life is about compromising
10:57
sometimes you gotta ask yes
10:59
yes but look how nice now so
11:02
yes let's recap it clean my plate i took
11:05
one sweet potato
11:06
and cut it into small little quarter
11:08
inch cubes
11:10
and we parboiled it in a saucepan just
11:12
slightly covered with water and a little
11:14
sea salt we boiled it for about three
11:15
minutes just to kind of soften it up
11:17
then in a large skillet a little bit of
11:19
canola oil and we added the sweet
11:20
potatoes back into the pan
11:23
um after after a purple onion sorry i've
11:25
got purple one
11:26
so purple onion then we added the sweet
11:27
potatoes back in and we added in
11:30
uh a can of pineapple diced pineapple
11:33
pineapple tidbits pineapple tidbits and
11:37
um we used some fresh georgia local
11:39
shrimp
11:40
and a little chipotle seasoning and
11:44
what else the cornstarch and teriyaki
11:46
slurry so this is a really simple dish
11:49
inexpensive but hearty and if you have a
11:52
shrimp allergy in your family you could
11:53
easily substitute chicken or you can use
11:55
pork or you can yeah
11:56
steak whatever his wife does have a
11:58
shrimp allergy
12:00
all right so you have given us options
12:03
bobby on what to
12:04
top it with what the garnish and one of
12:06
your suggestions
12:08
is chopped peanuts along with cilantro
12:15
if you've got somebody that you read
12:17
make sure you know who you're serving
12:19
this to before you serve
12:21
but that's giving you like a little bit
12:22
of a thai flair yes you know
12:24
exactly and the cilantro would
12:28
take it take it you know it holds it
12:30
right there
12:31
so a little a little parsley sprinkled
12:33
on top or a little cilantro
12:34
okay so here you go son your
12:39
