Part 1 😀 Welcome to episode 1 of my rice series! Today, we’re making Arroz con Gandules, a classic Puerto Rican dish with lots of flavor. As a proud Dominican, I couldn’t resist adding my twist to this dish using my Dominican-style sofrito. Make sure to visit my website asimpletweak.com for tips and tricks for this recipe and MORE! INGREDIENTS:👇 4 cups white rice 6 cups of water or chicken broth if preferred 2 teaspoons of oil 1 pkg sazon of achiote/culantro 1 cup cured salted pork diced 1/2 red bell pepper 1/2 green bell pepper cubanelle 1/2 red or yellow onion 2 recao leaves culantro 6 sprigs of cilantro 1-2 tablespoons of sofrito 2 garlic cloves minced 1 tablespoon tomato paste 2 (15.5oz) can pigeon peas (gandules) drained 2 teaspoons of salt ½ teaspoon black pepper INSTRUCTIONS👇 🍚 HOW TO MAKE THIS ARROZ CON GANDULES Heat the oil in a large pot or caldero over medium heat. Add the diced ham and cook for 3-5 minutes until crisp around the edges. I also added a packet of Sazon, which has achiote, which helps to enhance the color of the dish. You can use achiote oil instead if you want. Add the chopped onion, bell peppers, two tablespoons of homemade sofrito, minced garlic, and olives. Saute for two minutes. Then, add tomato paste and stir. Add the pigeon peas (gandules) and incorporate the rinsed and drained rice into the pot. Mix everything and pour in the water. Adjust the salt to your taste and stir to combine. Add the herbs. I added cilantro, culantro, and a few fresh oregano leaves. Next, allow the rice to cook uncovered on medium heat until most of the liquids have been absorbed. A good sign is to see bubble pockets in the pot. (about 8-10 minutes). Turn the heat to low and cover with the lid. Let the rice cook for 15 minutes. Then, uncover and, using a large cooking spoon, stir the rice over itself. Cover the rice and cook it for 15-20 minutes. The rice will be fluffy and tender. Serve warm and enjoy this Puerto Rican classic with a touch of Dominican love!!

After brine no need to wash and directly cook to oven?

Ingredients: Pumpkin and sweet potatoes are the stars of this recipe. However, this soup is so much more in flavor. This soup is a combo of well-balanced flavors. Pumpkin: I prefer using fresh sugar pie pumpkin, but pumpkin puree can also be used. I advise against using Jack-o-lantern-style pumpkins as they are tough and have little flavor. Sugar pie pumpkins are usually available in the produce section of most grocery stores during the fall and winter. Sweet potatoes Red pepper Tomatoes Onion. I used yellow onion, but white or red works as well. Garlic Spices: I added paprika, cinnamon, and nutmeg. All of them add a touch of heat and spice, which compliments the soup well. Vegetable Stock: You can substitute for chicken stock if is preferred Oil. I use avocado oil or olive oil Heavy cream adds creaminess to the soup. Vegan substitute: coconut cream. Pumpkin Seeds (optional) Prepare and roast the veggies Wash and peel the sweet potato and pumpkin. Scoop out the seeds of the pumpkin, then chop them into rough chunks. Peel and chop the onion and garlic. You can also just roast the garlic whole and then squeeze when adding to the blender. It’s up to you! Roughly chop tomatoes and red pepper Take a baking dish or sheet pan and arrange the chopped veggies in one single layer. Sprinkle it with olive oil (2 Tbsp), add paprika, nutmeg, and cinnamon, and season generously with salt and pepper. Toss until you mixed well. Preheat the oven and bake them at 350 Fahrenheit. Bake for 40-50 minutes until the veggies are soft and fork-tender and the edges are slightly caramelized. Blend it Using your blender, add all the roasted veggies. Blend it until creamy. Always make sure that, according to the manufacturer of your blender, you should avoid hot liquid. If that is the case, just wait a bit to cool it down before blending. Safety first! Purée until smooth and transfer to a large pot. Place the pot on the stove and add vegetable stock (or chicken stock). Cover the pot with a lid and cook on medium heat for 5-10 minutes, stirring regularly. taste for salt and pepper or any other spices you desire to add. I kept it simple as is, and the soup shines. But if you want, you can add some more nutmeg and cinnamon. If the soup is too thick, add more stock as needed until the desired consistency is reached. and voila! You will end up with a smooth, thick, delicious-looking pumpkin sweet potato soup! Garnish To make this soup extra spectacular, I drizzled some cream and topped it with some pumpkin seeds. They go perfectly together with this creamy pumpkin and sweet potato soup. The soup pairs perfectly with a piece of toasted cheesy bread.

Yes😮 a few by mistake has the skin. However I agree with you , to make this soup it’s recommended to Wash and peel the sweet potato and pumpkin. Scoop out the seeds of the pumpkin, then chop them into rough chunks.

This sweet potato hash recipe is a healthy skillet meal made with diced sweet potatoes and vegetables like peppers and onions, perfectly seasoned. It's so versatile that the toppings and variations are endless! I like to serve it with some scrambled eggs for a complete meal, but you can also serve it with avocado slices and even some sausages. INGREDIENTS: 4 large sweet potatoes (washed, peeled and diced) 1 ½ tablespoon oil 6 mixed mini sweet peppers (chopped) 1 jalapeno pepper (optional) 1 small onion Fresh parsley or cilantro Salt and pepper to taste This easy one-pan dish is packed with savory flavors and is the perfect way to start your day! Sweet potato hash is a great recipe to make in a large batch and enjoy throughout the week. It reheats well and is a perfect breakfast option. To make the hash, start by peeling and dicing the sweet potatoes. I like to dice small and thin to make the cooking process faster. I also chopped the peppers and onions. After all the veggies are prepared, it is time to sauté. In a large skillet, add oil and heat over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add the diced sweet potatoes. Add salt and black pepper and stir to combine. Cook for about 1 minute. Then, add ⅓ cup of water, to create some steam, and cover the pot. Cook until the sweet potatoes are soft. Next, uncover and stir the sweet potatoes, then set them to one side of the skillet to create a space for sautéing the peppers and onions. Add some oil, then add the onions first. Stir and cook until the onions are translucent, which should take about a minute. Next, add the peppers and season with salt and pepper. Stir, making sure to avoid the sweet potatoes. Cover and let it cook for about 2 minutes. Lastly, add finely chopped fresh parsley or cilantro and stir to combine. I also sprinkle some red pepper flakes for a nice kick (optional). Enjoy.

Baked Eggplant Topped with a Garlic Yogurt Sauce 1 large eggplant cut into rings The Yogurt topping/sauce ½ cup plain yogurt 1 teaspoon salt, to taste 1 tablespoon lemon juice, to taste 1 teaspoon olive oil 1 tablespoon fresh parsley finely chopped 1 garlic clove minced 1 large eggplant cut into rings WET RUB 1 teaspoon paprika 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning 1 -2 tablespoon olive oil ¼ salt (I use sea salt) ¼ teaspoons black pepper Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Slice the eggplant. I recommend cutting them into thick slices. Then, score their insides with the tip of a sharp knife so that you create a diamond crosshatch pattern. Be careful not to pierce the skin. I sprinkle a little bit of salt and let it sit for 5 minutes. The eggplant starts to release moisture. Using a paper towel pat them dry. In a large baking dish, place eggplant slices in a single layer. Top each eggplant on both sides with the wet rub. Drizzle with a little bit of oil ( about a teaspoon). Bake for 20-30 minutes or until very soft. Remove from the oven. In a small bowl mix Greek yogurt, lemon, salt and fresh parsley. Top the baked eggplant with a dollop of yogurt on each slice. Serve immediately. You can be as creative as you want. You can add cheese, topped them with a beef picadillo or simply eat them as is.
