This pickled peppers is similar in flavor to the Caribbean Lime Peppersauce Recipe I shared a while back, and the texture along with said flavor is also reminiscent of the Chunky Lemon Lime Peppersauce from 2021. You’ll Need… 2 cups wiri wiri peppers10 cloves garlic (whole / cut the large cloves in half)2 cups vinegar1…
Definitely not something I grew up eating and to be honest, not until I started making this a couple years back (in Canada) when I had a bountiful crop of tomatoes and hot peppers in my little kitchen garden. Yet since then, it’s an annual tradition in our home. You’ll Need… 4 lb ripe tomatoes4-6…
As the days are getting shorter and nights cooler, it’s a gentle reminder that winter is just around the corner. A time which this son of the Caribbean dreads! With this dish it’s my way of extending the summer by using the outdoor grill and eating alfresco before that’s no longer an option. You’ll Need……
Arguably the easiest Jamaican Rice and Peas to make is the Slow Cooker version I shared a while back and while that’s one of my go-to recipes, IMHO when you add salted pigtail to the dish it takes on a new level of ‘comfort’. Served with a healthy side of Jamaican Style Steamed Cabbage and…
In some parts of the Caribbean “Chow Heel” is also known as “Cow Foot”, and while those outside our culture may find it a bit offensive to eat such a part of the animal, it’s a comforting, tasty and nutritious dish. It’s deep rooted in our history from slavery to indentureship and beyond. You’ll Need……
This is yet another leftover special I rock from time to time at lunch. With boiled yam (cooked in salted water) and Smoked Herring Choka (some say stewed smoked herrings) on hand, basically all I did was add cabbage and warmed everything together. You’re free to add more tomato, bell pepper and anything else you…
While the base of this dish is reminiscent of Shrimp Scampi, and though I didn’t employ the use of any white wine (great addition btw), I’ll be adding rice (you may see others add pasta) to make it a tasty one pot dish. You’ll Need… 3 tablespoon butter8 cloves garlic (crushed or fine diced)1/2 teaspoon…
Over the years I’ve shown you how to make Plantain Frittata, Panko Crusted Fried Plantain, Orange Brown Sugar Glazed Plantain and Refried Boiled Plantain, to name a few. The hot days of summer means we’re grilling more, so I felt it was time to share this delicious grilled plantain recipe with you. You’ll Need… 3…
It seems like its a tradition during the warm months of Summer, that I share a peppersauce (hot sauce) recipe with you all. And while I have several others on the ‘to-do’ list, I figured I’d share something a little different today. Hot Honey! That wicked drizzle you’ll put on your pizza, fried chicken, chicken…
Most recently I shared the Lychee Chow recipe, which became an instant hit with fans and those only now stumbling onto my little space on the internet. Like all of the other “Chow” recipes I’ve shared, they all have their own uniqueness based on the main ingredient used. However I came to realize over the…
While lemon pepper ‘anything’ wasn’t on the menu when I was growing up on the islands, I noticed that over the years it’s gaining a bit of footing as an adored ‘seasoning’. I’m not a fan of these pre-packaged seasonings due to the high sodium content. Finding a low sodium one at Sam’s Club meant…
As explained in the video below, I loosely called this an Anchar and not a Kuchela, while either name could work in describing this wonderful spicy pickle. Yes, Mango Anchar is as classic as it gets, this version is quite unique as the slight bitterness of the Carilie compliments the Anchar Masala and other flavors….
