This is the Jamaican equivalent of potatoes for the Irish, pasta for the Italians, noodles for the Chinese and naan for the Indians. Every Sunday I would wake to the aroma of garlic simmering in this broth and would spend the day wishing dinner was ready. My mum would make a huge saucepan of this rice for our family, enough to feed us all on Sunday and Monday – yum!

Crispy, Cheesy and delicious! These little babies are moorish, comforting and sure to be a family favourite on a cold winter’s day, served with a little mustard mayo on the side… Just make sure you get in quick before they magically disappear…

Sometimes all you need is a little bit of this and a little bit of that to create what I consider ‘magic’ in a bowl and this recipe is all that!  It steps up the old and traditional into modern, tasty and moreish.   This is what I’m all about, packs a massive punch with flavour, colourful and goes with everything. Er, no love, not your new shoes!!!

A beautiful, modern and grown up version of an old dish and what a great way to present an ugly vegetable.  Bags of flavour and lots of wow power! POW!
