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….
Did your mom fry the eggs after boiling them and before making the curry? While it seems that’s the traditional way of making this comforting dish, our mom would simply boil the eggs and add them (cut in 1/2) to the curry base. Additionally I don’t recall that she ever added potatoes or aloo to…
Here’s yet another tropical fruit begging to made into a chow as we’ve done with pineapple, mango, Pommecythere and oranges. Essentially a quick sort of spicy pickle that as kids and even adults, we snack on. In the case of adults, it’s usually when we’re enjoying some ‘beverages’. You’ll Need… 1 lb lychee (peeled)1/3 teaspoon…
Callaloo is yet another classic Caribbean recipe with different meanings across the region. In this case the ingredient (Green Amaranth) is the star and what gives the dish its name in Jamaica. While in other parts of the Caribbean that same ingredient is known simply as ‘spinach’ or ‘Chorai Bhagi’. And ‘Callaloo’ is more of…
Over the years we’ve done Chicken Liver, Chicken Hearts, Grilled Pork, Chicken and the classic Geera Pork. Recipes I’m all proud to have shared with you all. Today we’ll change up the technique a little (explained in the video below) and use pork riblets to make what I believe is better than the regular Geera…
I’m sure we can all agree that Curry Chickpeas (channa) with Potato (aloo) is insanely tasty and comforting, especially when you have freshly made Paratha Roti on the side. With that in mind, allow me to share yet another way to further enhance this wonderful curry dish. If you head over to the Recipe Index,…
Two years back we kicked off the New Year with my incredibly tasty Cook Up Rice, loaded with chicken, salted pigtail pieces and black eyed peas for the good luck associated with using it at the start of a new year. While you’ll see similarities with that recipe and the beef version we’re about to…
While it’s currently summertime and most of us in northern climates prefer to not have our indoor oven going, as explained in the video below this recipe can also be effectively done on an outdoors grill. If you’re doing this outdoor on the grill you can do so in a baking dish or grill the…
