There are as many variations of this chunky soup as there are kitchens in Jamaica. You may want to add more or less hot pepper sauce depending on your tolerance.
This hearty soup has all the elements of a big pot of spaghetti and meat sauce. Adding the pasta to the soup and letting it stand allows the pasta to cook to perfection — and you don't have to watch the pot.
This sauce mellows out considerably when brushed over meat on the grill, but it also packs a punch of flavour when served as a side sauce at the table. For doubly delicious results, use it to baste while grilling and serve extra sauce at the table.
Light and fresh yet satisfying enough to be a meal, this soup is ready in just minutes. Chunky with white flaky fish in a pale pink broth, it is attractive, too. You can use shrimp instead of fish if desired; just cook until pink.
This lamb dish gets its kick from a fiery Scotch bonnet pepper. They're one of the hottest peppers you'll find in grocery stores, so reduce the amount used if you don't like your curry overly spicy. Serve with roti or rice, and garnish with fresh thyme leaves, if you like.
