I really enjoyed the rice n peas prepared this way. I've never made it before with warming the peas first and adding them at the end. What great flavor and texture it gave to the dish. Made exactly as written but used Congo peas as I was out of black eyed peas. Love the spice in the rice. The rice was the perfect accompaniment for our Grilled Jamaican chicken and plantains. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe. Made for What's on the Menu Tag Game. 2015.
