Jamaican Stew Beef


This is one of those recipes that will mek yuh slap yuh madda! Nothing like the one pot meals


INGREDIENTS:

  • 2 cups red peas
  • ½ lb salt beef
  • 1 lb stew beef (you also can use pigs-tail if you like)
  • 1 scotch bonnet pepper
  • 2 stalk scallion
  • 3 sprig thyme
  • 2 cups coconut milk (or 1/4 box)
  • 6 pimento seed
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • salt and pepper to taste

METHOD / DIRECTIONS:

Boil and drain salt beef twice, in a medium size pan. Place peas, meat and garlic together in the pan, boil until peas are tender, about 1 ½ hour. Add coconut cream, spinners, and seasoning, cook for about an hour. Season to taste. Thicken the mix with 3 tablespoons of flour combined with 1/4 cup water. Strain the mixture into the stew. Boil until it thickens. Serve with rice.

Love your blog! We are expecting our first snow of the season tonight in Minnesota-I am blocking it out with your blog and rum & ginger beer. This might be a lot to ask, but could you give me menu ideas for a complete Jamaican style thanksgiving with your Jerky Turkey as the centerpiece? Cheers from the north!
