1

Prepare diced pork and season with crushed garlic, ginger, jerk marinade, jerk powdered seasoning, and crushed pimento. Set aside to marinate.

2

In a pot, add 2 cups of parboiled rice, 1 teaspoon of curry powder, turmeric, chicken bouillon, and a pinch of salt.

3

Add 2.5 cups of water to the rice mixture and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and allow to steam until fully cooked.

4

In another pot, add oil and sear the marinated pork for 2 to 3 minutes.

5

Add a little Browning to the pork for color and season with cayenne pepper to taste.

6

Cover the pork to allow it to produce its own liquid and simmer for a few minutes.

7

Gradually add hot water to the pork until it becomes soft and tender.

8

Add the Holy Trinity (chopped red and green bell peppers, celery, and chopped onion) to the pork.

9

Optionally add about a tablespoon of meat sauce and let it simmer on low heat without a cover to reduce the liquid.

10

Remove some of the meat from the pot to adjust the meat-to-rice ratio before adding the cooked rice.

11

Add the cooked rice back to the pot with the pork and stir to combine everything. Stir on heat for 1 to 2 minutes until mixed well.
