👨🍳 Instruções

Rinse the madhumbe thoroughly under running water. Place them in a saucepan, cover with water, and bring to a boil. Cook for about 10-15 minutes until they are slightly tender but not fully cooked. Drain the water.

Once cool enough to handle, peel the madhumbe. Cut them into wedges of about 1-inch thickness.

Preheat your oven to 450°F (230°C). Lightly grease two large baking sheets.

In a large bowl, whisk together the canola oil, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, paprika, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper (if using) to create the seasoning mixture.

Add the madhumbe wedges to the bowl with the seasoning mixture. Toss well to ensure each wedge is evenly coated.

Arrange the seasoned madhumbe wedges in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Avoid overcrowding the pans to ensure crispiness.

Roast for 20-25 minutes, flipping the wedges halfway through and rotating the pans, until they are tender on the inside and golden brown and crispy on the outside.
