Jamaican Stuffing Recipes

Steps:

• Melt 75g of the butter in a frying pan over a low heat. Add the onions and fry for 6 mins until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 2-3 mins, then add the tomatoes, pepper, thyme and chilli (in one piece), and cook for a further 6-8 mins until softened. Season to taste. Stir through the remaining 25g butter and allow to melt.
• Stir in the breadcrumbs, making sure all the ingredients are fully combined, then mix in the ketchup. Leave to cool. Will keep chilled for up to 24 hrs. Remove the chilli, then use the stuffing to fill the cavity of a turkey or chicken, and roast following pack instructions.
• Alternatively, tip the stuffing into a roasting tray. Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and cook for 20-25 mins to serve with turkey, chicken, or a vegetarian main.

Steps:

• For the mayo: Mix the hot sauce, relish, sugar, ginger and red pepper flakes in large bowl until the sugar dissolves. Once dissolved, add the mayonnaise.
• For the poblanos: Halve the poblanos lengthwise. Core and remove the seeds, keeping the stems in place for presentation. Heat the oil in a deep-fryer to 350 degrees F. Fry the peppers in the hot oil for 2 minutes. Remove from the oil, drain and cool to remove the skin.
• Mix the crab meat, mayonnaise, Cheddar, onions, hot sauce in a large mixing bowl. Season with the seafood seasoning and black pepper. Divide the crab mixture evenly and fill the poblanos. Place on a baking sheet and sprinkle with panko. Broil until golden brown, 3 to 5 minutes.
• To serve, place small amount of Jamaican mayo on top of the peppers.

Steps:

• Bake cubed bread in an oven at 300°F until crisp and dry.
• Melt the oil and butter in a heavy saucepan.
• Add the garlic and onions and sauté until golden brown.
• Add the salt, black pepper, celery, fresh herbs, spices, bread crumbs, raisins, and half the broccoli and half the pumpkin.
• Mix well and add the stock.
• Lower the heat, cover pot and simmer for about 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. Heat olive oil in skillet over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, cubanelle, ají dulce and ají caballero peppers and cook, stirring occasionally, until vegetables begin to soften, about 5 minutes.
• Stir in tomatoes and cilantro and cook 1 minute. Add 1 cup water and the butter and let mixture simmer, stirring occasionally, 10 minutes. Carefully transfer mixture to a blender or food processor and purée until smooth.
• Fill a large heavy-bottom pot with about 1 1/2 inches of vegetable oil and set over medium-high heat. Working in batches, deep-fry plantains until tender, about 3 minutes per batch; drain on a paper-towel-lined plate.
• Combine plantains, vegetable purée and pork rinds in a large bowl and mash with a potato masher until combined but still chunky. Transfer to a small baking dish and bake until top is just starting to brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
