JAMAICAN VEGAN RED PEA STEW, SPELT FLOUR SPINNERS ON A BED OF BASMATI RICE

Greetings my lovely STEEMIANS well I just want to share my latest meal with you which is a really popular dish from Jamaica this meal is usually cooked with meat or pork. I am now going to give it a London vegan twist and trust me everyone who has tried it has loved it they always give me marks out of 10, 10 I have been told by my friends and my colleagues. My vegan Stew peas can give the meat and pork a hands down run for their money. This healthy alternative is filled with protein, healthy fats from the coconut milk and I cook my rice in a clay pot which balances out the PH of the rice making it less acidic and balanced. Can you recall one of my previous posts CLAY POT IT A STEAL POST the health benefits of cooking with clay over all other cooking pots. If you haven’t already do read or research the benefits OF CLAY COOKING. I am going to get on with the recipe now as I have work to do.
