Instant Pot Jamaican Oxtail Stew - caribbean recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Combine brown sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, allspice, cinnamon, and liquid smoke in a bowl. Add oxtails and toss until well coated.

  2. Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot) and select the Sauté function. When hot, add oil and place oxtails, flat-side down, inside. Brown on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.

  3. Pour 2 tablespoons beef broth into the pot to deglaze, scraping up all the browned bits from the bottom with a wooden spoon. Add carrots, onion, green onions, garlic, and Scotch bonnet pepper. Sauté until onions have softened, about 5 minutes. Return oxtails to the pot with remaining beef broth, ketchup, and thyme. Cancel the Sauté function.

  4. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to the manufacturer's instructions; set the timer for 45 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.

  5. Release the pressure using the natural-release method according to the manufacturer's instructions, 20 to 40 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.

  6. Remove oxtails and vegetables from the pot, leaving the liquid behind. Select Sauté function and bring liquid to a simmer. Combine water and cornstarch in a small bowl; stir into the simmering liquid. Add pinto beans and simmer until liquid is slightly thickened and beans are warmed, about 5 minutes. Return oxtails and vegetables back to the pot, and mix to combine.

Vegetable Kottu Roti

Vegetable Kottu Roti - caribbean recipe photo

Risi e Bisi, Italian Rice and Peas

Risi e Bisi, Italian Rice and Peas - caribbean recipe photo

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Sauté the shallots:

    Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized pot over medium-high heat. When it is hot, add the shallots and stir to combine. Let these sauté for 2 to 3 minutes.

  2. Heat the stock and water:

    Meanwhile, heat up the stock and 1 cup of water in a small pot. You want this at a simmer while you make the rice.

  3. Add the garlic and prosciutto to shallots:

    Add the garlic and the diced prosciutto to the pot with the shallots, stir well and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.

  4. Add the rice:

    Pour in the rice, stir again and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly.

  5. Slowly ladle in stock:

    Ladle some of the hot stock into the pot and start stirring. Risi e bisi is cooked like risotto and is supposed to be pretty soupy, so you need a lot of water and you need to stir it constantly. Let this first ladle of stock cook down before you add the next.

    Keep adding stock, letting it cook down and stirring until you’re done with the simmering stock. It is likely that you may need at least one more cup of water to finish the dish, because all that stirring in an open pot means you evaporate more liquid than you would when you cook rice the normal way, i.e., covered. If you think you are going to need more water, add more to the simmering stock.

  6. When you get to this last cup of water, add the peas:

    Keep stirring until the water has almost cooked away. Taste some rice and test for salt and doneness: Add a little salt and some more hot tap water if the rice is still crunchy – you want the rice to be a little al dente, but not so much you’re gnawing on raw grain.

  7. Add the parsley and Parmesan and mix well:

    Your finished rice should be slightly soupy, so it’s OK to add a tad more water before serving.
