We’ve talked (well, just me) about how due to circumstance (slavery and indentureship) we’ve perfected the art of not only using entire animals, but using the parts many would toss in the rubbish and making TASTY meals out of it. Case in point – Curry Chicken Hearts. You’ll Need… 1 lb chicken hearts (cut in…
Curry Beef or Beef Curry (Guyana) is one of those things I rarely cook as I’m not the biggest fan of beef (except for steaks and burgers). And yes, I originally shared a Curry Beef and Curry Beef With Potatoes recipe/s a few years back, but this is my enhanced version of this classic Caribbean…
While I’ve shared several recipes with potato and chickpeas over the years and yes, you have seen a version of this curry recipe on here. This will be the first time we’re doing this from ‘scratch’. In the previous version we used chickpeas (channa) from the can, with excellent results, but I wanted to share…
Unlike 95% of the curry dishes you’ll find in the Caribbean, where there’s usually a gravy or sauce, this one is dry. Don’t let the word ‘dry’ confuse you into thinking it will be bland and reminiscent of cardboard. Quite the opposite.. it’s banging with flavor and I can guarantee you that you and your…
Here’s one of my favorite dishes to make when I have leftover Stewed Chicken and plan to make hot Sada Roti. While it does take a little work to remove the sort of skin off the Channa (Chickpeas), I highly suggest you do as the end result is simply delicious. You’ll Need… 2 cans chickpeas…
While I’ve shared several Curry Duck Recipes with you over the years, only after receiving a request via Instagram for Curry Duck With Pigeon Peas, did I realize that had not already shared this classic Caribbean curry recipe. And while using freshly harvested Pigeon Peas would make for an even better tasting dish, the frozen…
While I didn’t grow up eating this dish on the islands (simply because I don’t ever recall mom having access to crayfish), it’s quite common to see me make it when I visit the Asian supermarkets and they have crayfish (frozen) in stock. The trick is to not over-cook the the crayfish, while using it…
Dry, Bland and “Like Rubber“! A few words the average Caribbean person will use to describe curry (curried) chicken breast (white meat). And while there’s some truth to this, I’m here today to change that forever.. with a few simple steps. You’ll Need… 3-4 lbs chicken breast (no skin nor bones)1 teaspoon salt (adjust)2 tablespoon…
While you will see similarities with this Onion Choka and Classic Pepper Choka (basically roasted hot peppers made into a SPICY condiment), with the simplicity (and the perfect blend of flavor and texture) of this version, it could easily be your new favorite side to curry dishes. TIP! Use as much thinly sliced onion as…
No you’re not seeing double! If you’ve been following my culinary exploits here from day one, you would have seen me share a similar Curry Chicken With Potato (aloo) recipe about 8 years ago. And while that recipe is timeless, the google indexing bots are no longer as kind to the website, so if you…
I was asked in an interview “if it came down to having to decide on a final meal, what would that be?” (kinda morbid when you think about the question), but without any hesitation I said my mom’s Curry Kingfish served with hot (steamed or boiled) rice or roti. And while the recipe I’m about…
BLISS! When two culinary worlds collide, you get what I refer to as the Ultimate Comfort Food! Curry Stew Chicken and Pelau are two of my fav dishes out of the Caribbean. Anyone close to me will tell you that I can eat either on a daily basis. Such is my love for them. Served…
