CARIBBEAN CURRIED PEAS (LENTILS)
This recipe can be eaten as a main or side dish. The key to developing the flavor (and not missing the meat) is caramelizing and developing deep browning of the onions and carrots. In the Caribbean, cooks call this 'burning' the onions.

Steps:
- In a large pot over medium-high heat, sauté the garlic, onion, and habanero with the olive oil and a pinch of salt for 5 to 7 minutes.
- Stir in the curry powder and cook until the onions are nicely coated, then add in the beans and water. Turn down the burner to medium-low, cover the pot, and cook for about 20 minutes.
- Stir in the coconut milk, turn down the burner to low, and simmer with the pot cover off for 30 minutes or until the beans are tender.
- Stir in the 1 tablespoon of salt and add the pepper, cilantro, and lime juice. Taste your beans! Add more salt if you like, keep simmering, tasting your beans until they are seasoned and cooked through to your liking.
Tips:
- Soak the lentils and peas: Soaking the lentils and peas overnight or for at least 4 hours will help to reduce their cooking time and make them more digestible.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This recipe calls for bell peppers, carrots, and tomatoes, but you can also use other vegetables such as zucchini, squash, or green beans.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the vegetables, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly.
- Use a good quality curry powder: The curry powder is the key to the flavor of this dish, so be sure to use a good quality one.
