INSTRUCTIONS
Marinate the pork with the Caribbean light pork spice. Soak the peas
in lots of cold water and change it twice. If you use pigs' tails also
soak them. Heat half the oil and butter in a pan. Add the onions and
sweat till they are soft. Add the garlic and sweat for a further
minute. Add the Scotch bonnet, tomatoes, red pepper, peas, bacon or
hog and cover with water. Simmer for 1 hour on the side of the stove
till the peas and the bacon are very soft. Take out the bacon, remove
the rind and cut into fine dice. Add the rice and coconut cream to the
remaining peas. Cook under a lid on the side of the stove till the
rice is cooked and all the water has been absorbed. Add the spring
onions and adjust seasoning. Meanwhile, put some cloves of garlic and
olive oil in some foil and roast in the oven. Cook the fillet of pork
in the remaining oil and butter for approximately 10 minutes in a
preheated oven of 200C and rest for 5 minutes. Take some cherry
tomatoes, cut them in half and stew them with salt and pepper on a
baking tray. Rub them with thyme. Then warm them up in a saucepan with
some olive oil. Place the rice in the middle of the plate. Slice the
fillet of pork and arrange around it. Pour the tomatoes around the
edge. Arrange the roasted garlic and sprinkle some spring onions on
the top. Converted by MC_Buster. Converted by MM_Buster v2.0l.
