Ingredients: - 1 can of coconut milk - 1 tablespoon of corn starch - 1 tablespoon of curry powder - 2 cloves of garlic, minced - 2 seasoning cubes - 1 can of mackerel - 1 bulb of onion, chopped - 1 can of kidney beans - 1 cup of rice - 2 scotch bonnet peppers Instructions: 1. Follow the full recipe on the source website (I won't give you the whole shebang here!). Now, let me share a little personal anecdote with you. Once, in my haste, I mistook sugar for salt in this recipe. Let's just say it was a sweet and savory disaster! Always double-check your ingredients, folks. Here's a unique tip for you: To add an extra kick to this dish, try roasting the scotch bonnet peppers before adding them to the curry. It'll take the flavor to a whole new level!

Directions

  1. 1

    Rinse the rice and kidney beans, then soak the beans in water for at least 2 hours or overnight.

  2. 2

    Drain the beans, place in a pot with 2 cups of water, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 45 minutes until tender.

  3. 3

    While beans cook, chop the onion, mince the garlic, and slice the scotch bonnet peppers. Cut the mackerel into serving pieces.

  4. 4

    In a large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Sauté the onion and garlic until soft, about 3 minutes.

  5. 5

    Add the curry powder and seasoning cubes, stirring for 1 minute. Pour in the coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer.

  6. 6

    Dissolve the corn starch in 2 tablespoons of water and stir into the coconut mixture to thicken slightly.

  7. 7

    Add the mackerel pieces and scotch bonnet peppers to the pan. Simmer gently for 10-12 minutes until fish is cooked through.

  8. 8

    In a separate pot, combine the cooked beans, rice, and 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until rice is tender.

  9. 9

    Serve the rice and peas alongside the coconut curry mackerel, spooning extra sauce over the top.
