How To Cook Jamaican Barefoot Rice And Peas Recipe🧑‍🍳

Introduce the recipe and ingredients.

Prepare the country cured pigtails by rinsing them under cold water to remove excess salt.

Boil the pigtails in water for 30 minutes to further reduce saltiness.

Rinse the red kidney beans to remove any debris, discarding any that float.

Rinse the smoked turkey necks under cold water.

After boiling, drain the pigtails and set aside.

In a pot, combine the pigtails, rinsed kidney beans, and smoked turkey necks.

Add Ocho Rios all-purpose seasoning, pimento seeds, garlic, bay leaves, and ginger to the pot.

Cover and cook until the meat is tender.

Add a can of coconut cream, scallion, thyme, onions, and habanero pepper to the pot.

Stir in one teaspoon of jerk seasoning and additional all-purpose seasoning to taste.

Add parboiled rice to the mixture, ensuring the liquid is at least an inch above the rice level.

Cover the pot with foil and cook for 20 minutes to allow the rice to steam and absorb the flavors.
