JAMAICAN RICE WITH "PEAS"
I found this recipe in a book in the library and it instantly appealed to me because of its unusual exotic flavour (coconut and chili). There is a little story behind its name: In Jamaica they say peas when they mean beans and therefore this dish is called rice with peas even though there are none in it.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients in a big pot (cast-iron would be best). Add water until up to 2.5 cm above the rice.
- Bring to a boil slowly, using medium heat. Reduce to low heat and simmer for approximately 25 minutes until the rice is soft and has absorbed the liquid.
- Remove the chili and spice the rice with thyme, pepper and salt.
- Enjoy!
