Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
In a bowl season the Agouti (5 lb) with Green Caribbean Seasoning (2 Tbsp), Salt (1 tsp), and Freshly Ground Black Pepper (as needed), then add the Onion (1), Tomato (1), Garlic (3 cloves), and Scotch Bonnet Pepper (1/2) and mix. Let it marinate overnight.
step 2
Once your meat has marinated, heat up a pot and add the Vegetable Oil (1 Tbsp) and Brown Sugar (4 tsp). Cook over high heat until the sugar turns an amber color but careful that it does not turn black.
step 3
Add in the seasoned meat and stir to get a nice color on the meat. Swish some water around the bowl used to marinate, then add that in as well. Place the lid and continue to cook on high for 25 minutes. Remove the lid for the last 5 minutes.
step 4
Pour in the Coconut Milk (3 cups) bring it up to a boil again then reduce to a simmer. Place the lid back on and braise for an hour and half.
step 5
Stir the mixture then put the lid back on and cook for another 30 minutes. After that, turn off the stove and add in the Scallion (1 bunch) and Culantro Leaves (1 Tbsp). Serve with yams or any other roots and enjoy!
