Curry Agouti

coconut milk

🥗Healthier: almond milk

💰Cheaper: evaporated milk

Almond milk is lower in calories, while evaporated milk provides creaminess.

Clean and prepare the agouti, cutting it into pieces.

Marinate the agouti with lime juice, salt, and black pepper for at least 30 minutes.

Heat vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.

Add chopped onion, garlic, and ginger, and sauté until fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.

Stir in curry powder and cook for an additional minute to toast the spices.

Add the marinated agouti pieces to the pot, browning them on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Incorporate chopped tomatoes, scotch bonnet pepper, thyme, and bay leaves into the pot.

Pour in coconut milk and bring the mixture to a simmer.

Cover and cook on low heat for 1.5 to 2 hours, stirring occasionally, until the agouti is tender.

Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper to taste before serving.

Garnish with chopped green onions and serve with rice or roti.
