Authentic Caribbean Chicken Stew

Recipe by: winstono2005

Reviews(3)

This is my favourite Caribbean dish which is very well seasoned (a trademark of Caribbean food) and have always enjoyed it as a child. The sauce should not be as thick as a curry and not too watery if that makes any sense. There are many varieties of this dish and is always best served with rice and peas and West Indian pepper sauce.

You can jazz this up with orange zest or liqueur, for example – they can really make an impact and turn a dessert into something special.

Danny's Scrambled Egg

Recipe by: BigBadDan

Be the first to review it!

It is important that seasonings are added at the last minute. The butter used is unmeasured because you can add more or less butter depending on taste. The trick to the perfect scrambled egg is not to over-cook. Scrambled egg should be slightly runny, not solid.

Fresh Custard

Recipe by: HappyMamaToThree

This custard is excellent with sponge pudding or with our favourite croissant bread pudding. It's pourable or spoon-able. To prevent a lumpy or scorched pudding use a heavy bottomed saucepan and stir CONSTANTLY. Do not walk away while this is cooking.

This is my grandmother's recipe. Beef is slowly cooked until tender, with soured cream added at the end to create a luscious gravy. Serve with plenty of bread to mop up the gravy.

Perfect pot roast

This long-simmered, one-pot meal is wonderfully satisfying. It can be prepared ahead, so it's perfect for family dinners as well as informal entertaining. Serve with a crunchy mixed salad and seeded bread.

Slow-braised beef and barley

Recipe by: Azmina Govindji

Reviews(1)

Juniper berries give this dish a distinctive flavour. The beef is slowly simmered until meltingly tender, while nourishing pot barley soaks up some of the juices and thickens the rich gravy to make a hearty casserole. Serve with mashed potatoes and a green vegetable such as French beans or spring greens.

Sunday Trifle

Recipe by: Polly Welby

Reviews(2)

This is my version of traditional trifle without using jelly. We used to have this nearly every Sunday for dessert when I was growing up. It includes a fresh custard recipe but you could use supermarket prepared custard or make it with powder.
