Directions
Jamaican Style Peas and Rice (Red Beans and Rice),I love this recipe! My first time making red beans and rice in 2003 and it was perfect! I’ve never used the pepper and I also used extra seasonings like garlic powder etc. use the canned beans because dried beans take so long to cook!! My kids can’t wait that long! 🙂 This is great with a stew or a curry, like chicken or goat. Whenever I bought a stew or a curry from the Jamaican restaurants back home, they automatically came with this rice. If you eat it on it’s own, it may seem a bit plain.,I made this and it turned out fantastic! I followed the directions to the letter, and the taste was incredible. Warning – if you add a pinch of salt just before you eat it (after its on your plate) it really makes the dish pop. So much flavor, and it increases the depth of the taste. It is total comfort food,I am having a Jamaica themed party for 50 people. What is the best way to make this in bulk??
