1 teaspoon ginger, chopped

2 teaspoons thyme, chopped

4 whole pimento berries, crushed

DIRECTIONS

Trim meat, cut into bite-size pieces and wash in a mixture of water and vinegar.

* Add 1 tablespoon curry powder, chopped onion, scallion, garlic, ginger, thyme, scotch bonnet pepper, black pepper and salt; rub the seasonings into the meat, cover and put to marinate for two hours.

* Heat vegetable oil in a heavy bottom skillet over medium heat and add the remaining one tablespoon curry powder.

* Add the marinated meat and allow to sear.

* Turn the meat and add 4 cups boiling water. Cover and allow to simmer for about 1 hour 20 minutes or until the meat is tender.

* Add the diced potato and cook for five minutes. Fold in the sliced carrot and pimento berries and cook for five minutes.

To serve: Serve with plain rice, vegetable salad and Mango Chutney.

Method Note: Sear - To brown meat quickly by subjecting it to very high heat either in a skillet, under a broiler or in a very hot oven. The object of searing is to seal in the meat's juices.
