Welcome viewers to the channel and introduce the dish being made: Bajan pudding and souse.

Mention the use of West Indian sweet potatoes with red skin for the dish.

Add chicken to the mixture, stating that no water is needed because the cucumber will create its own juices.

Stir the mixture well, ensuring all ingredients are combined.

Cover the mixture with plastic wrap and refrigerate to chill while preparing the pudding.

Decide to cook the sweet potatoes in the microwave instead of the convection oven due to texture issues.

Mix all ingredients together, adding Browning sauce, starting with one tablespoon and adjusting to taste.

Transfer the mixture to a greased dish, cover with plastic wrap, and place in the microwave.

Select the potato cycle on the microwave and cook for two to three cycles, stirring after the first cycle.

After approximately three and a half cycles, check the finished product and present it to viewers.
