Easy Caribbean Red Pea Stew
In a large pot, heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium heat. Sauté 1 diced onion until translucent, then add 2 minced garlic cloves, 1 diced bell pepper, and 1 sliced carrot. Cook for 3-4 minutes. Stir in 1 tsp ground cumin and 1 tsp paprika, then add 1 cup Sea Island Red Peas and 4 cups vegetable stock. Toss in 2 Caribbean bay leaves, bring to a boil, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the peas are tender.
Once the peas are soft, stir in 1 can (400g) chopped tomatoes and season with salt and pepper to taste. Let it simmer for another 10-15 minutes. Remove the bay leaves and garnish with freshly chopped coriander before serving. Enjoy your hearty Caribbean Red Pea Stew!
