Ingredients
- 1 lb Corned Beef
- 1 1/2 cup Kidney Beans
- 1 Scotch Bonnet
- 2 Scallions
- 1/4 tsp Thyme
- 1 clove finely chopped Garlic
- 2 cups Water
- 3 Cups Coconut Milk
- 2 Bay Leaf
- 6 Allspice
- 2 cloves Garlic
Directions
- Cover the diced salt beef with water and bring to a boil. Repeat as necessary, draining and replacing water to eliminate some of the brine. In a separate pan, place beans in water, add coconut milk, bay leaves, pimento seeds, whole garlic, whole scotch bonnet pepper and scallions. Slowly bring to a boil and simmer for about 2 hours, or until beans are tender. Add salt beef, onions, thyme and crushed garlic and simmer for another 20 minutes. Adjust seasonings if necessary. Remove the bay leaves and scotch bonnet pepper, being careful not to burst the pepper. Serve with white rice and your choice of salad or vegetables.
