👨🍳 Instruções
- 1
In a bowl, toss the pork cubes with curry powder and flour until evenly coated. Season with salt and black pepper.
- 2
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Brown the pork cubes in batches, then remove and set aside.
- 3
Reduce heat to medium. Add chopped onions to the pot and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- 4
Add minced garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant. Stir in the crushed allspice berries.
- 5
Return the browned pork to the pot. Add the thyme sprigs, whole scotch bonnet pepper, coconut milk, and water or broth. Stir to combine.
- 6
Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for at least 1 hour, or until the pork is tender. Stir occasionally.
- 7
While the pork is simmering, prepare the rice and peas. In a saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, drained kidney beans, coconut milk, chopped onion, minced garlic, thyme sprig, and pierced scotch bonnet pepper (if using). Add enough water to cover the rice by about 1 inch.
- 8
Bring the rice and peas mixture to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes, or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender. Remove the thyme sprig and scotch bonnet pepper before serving.

Once the pork is tender, remove the thyme sprigs and scotch bonnet pepper from the curry. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
