INGREDIENTS:

* 1lb. prepared conch meat, chopped
* 2 stalks celery
* 2 eggs, beaten
* 1 cup flour
* 4 cloves garlic
* 1 tsp. baking powder
* 1 green pepper, seeded
* 1 tsp. salt
* 1 white onion
* 1/4 cup milk
* 1 carrot
* 2 Tbs. Jerk Sauce

METHOD / DIRECTIONS:

Put conch in batches through a food processor until it is finely chopped. Transfer to large bowl and stir in the eggs. Place the garlic, green pepper, onion, and carrot and celery stalks through food processor until finely chopped. Drain the vegetables in a sieve lined with cheesecloth, and then add to the conch in the mixing bowl. Stir to combine the ingredients. Stir the flour and baking powder together, and then mix in with the other ingredients. Add the salt, milk and jerk sauce. Fold everything together to form a thick dough. Cover and refrigerate at least one hour. Preheat deep fryer to 400 degrees F. Remove the dough and let it stand for 15 to 20 min. Drop by the tablespoonful into hot oil and fry until golden brown. Be careful not to make the spoonfuls of butter too large or the dough may not cook in the center. Drain the fritters on paper towels and serve immediately. Garnish with fresh lemon or lime wedges and serve with Caribbean Tartar Sauce (see below).

  • Fava Bean Recipe

    I must put in a word of caution here.

    Some people of Mediterranean descent may have a reaction to fava beans.
    Although it’s mainly uncooked beans, some people can be allergic to cook ones also.

    Fava Beans ( delicious)

    1/4 cup of olive oil
    2 or 3 large onions
    2 or 3 garlic cloves
    2 tablespoons of red pepper flake
    1/4 cup of tomato sauce
    2 cups hot water
    3 or so tablespoons of parsley fresh or dried
    1/2 teaspoon of black pepper
    2 teaspoons of paprika
    2 cans of fava beans ( large cans, I think there is only one size)

     

    Directions
    Heat oil over med. heat.
    Sauté onion and garlic until brown.
    Stir in all the rest except the fava beans.
    Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer for 1/2 hour.
    Carefully incorporate the fava beans.
    Remove from the heat and let it sit there to let the flavors blend.

    Good stuff
