I say this is from mom’s kitchen, but really that means “just add a little this and a little that”. 😅 So when I made this I had to let her taste it. And she was actually blown away and didn’t even pick up on the special something in there. She said “I may have to go back to the drawing board” 👀. Still can’t believe I impressed her! 🤩

My mom, like yours, cooked a million meals for me over my childhood. It's a privilege to pay it back and labor for them, one good meal at a time! Fyi I'll be stealing your recipe ☺️

I lost my Mom in 2015 and my Dad in 2020. As their health declined over years, their palates changed as well. I would make lunch for the 3 of us (and any of their tag along church friends) every Sunday. As they aged, they LOVED bigger, bolder flavors. I suspect your Mom loves your food and is so incredibly proud of you for how you're sharing it with the World. Food is such a powerful way to bring people together and share love. It's crazy how Moms influence our lives, even when they've been gone for years. Stay amazing.

I remember getting a similar reaction once I finally figured out MY version of Jamaican Rice & Peas, because you know everyone does it a LITTLE different. Just like making a jerk seasoning/marinade.

I really love your cooking and I will definitely try this. But please educate yourself about that induktion burner. They are extremely harmful to your health. Blessings from Germany.
I’m a Jamaican woman living in the US and I’m so glad I came across your page. I’m changing my eating habits and this menu is perfect because I have all the recipes in my pantry and fridge. Funny thing I always buy these stuff but don’t use it much. I appreciate the work you’re doing. Bless up.
I'm from the Caribbean and recently learned to add peanut butter to my stewed lentils and curries. WoW, just a little will thicken up a pot quick. Great recipe Andrew. Pumpkin is a great thickener in the islands also.

How does the peanut butter taste in the food. I hope it's a subtle taste and not overwhelming the rest of the food/ingredients
At this point, one assumes whatever you demonstrate will be a winner in our own kitchens. But if you impressed Mom with this one, I've gotta make it!

I'm Jamaican and never had this. I will definitely try this. Thanks
I'm not Caribbean but let me tell you! This recipe is amazing!!! I grew up in the south eating soulfood for a good portion of my life. Not realizing until I became an adult that I probably shouldn't eat this way all of the Time I started changing some lifestyle habits. My biggest issue is finding non meat alternatives that taste good while packing a healthy punch. This recipe is perfect and so flavorful! I love peanut butter too so this was definitely a win win for me! I'm looking forward to trying your other hearty recipes!!!!
In my 35 years of cooking and travels to many countries, you've added all of my favorites into one dish. I felt like I was watching myself on an inspired Saturday night. Subbed fo life.
Proud 🇯🇲and I will be making this one definitely. Thank you again Andrew! 🙏🏽🫶🏽💜🇯🇲🎊

Your mom is Jamaican? That explains a lot. Money buys a proper education, not the other way around. Your career doesn't require a university degree but you explain your recipes like a college professor. An advanced degree usually won't get you anywhere in life but there are always lucrative opportunities in the culinary arts. I have a B.A. in Economics so I know how these things go.

...I neglected to add that merely paying other people to educate you is futile. Piss down a drunk's leg. Acquiring money, HAVING money. That is the way.
This recipe is soooo good! even if i couldnt follow it 100%! I live in Romania and i never saw russet potato (also,i cook very rare with potatos) but this time i had some white potatos leftovers so i used those (maybe 1 potato in total) I didnt have jamaican curry powder so i just added organic curry powder (wich i use in all curries and i really love) Also i used canned lentils and skipped spinach bcs i forgot to buy.. (but this can be added next time you reheat the curry and will be very tasty if you just blanche the spinach into the curry :D) and skipped bonnet pepper as i didnt saw it here..but i used homemade chilli oil to top the curry! Thank you for this recipe!
Made it this week, omg it was delicious. I'm not vegan but I'm trying my best to get there. My husband whose from the Bahamas and extremely picky about his food, loved it! My 2 year old ate the whole bowl (I'm talking adult size😂😂). We really enjoyed it, thank you ❤❤
Made it tonight (Nard Dog Monday in our home) . Used yams instead of potato. LOVED it...will be using this one again and again. Keep up the great work.
I'm vegan and jamaican... I love that dish.. Even the peper you added, thyme, scallions Ginger ...your stop on my friend etc. I could smell that aroma all the way in New Jersey😂
Made this straight after watching the video and it is amazing. The whole family loved it!

How'd you like it? The unwritten rule for those that say, "I can't wait" is you must post an update once you've tried it. 😉
Just coming here to say I made this tonight and it’s soooooo good. Didn’t have Jamaican curry but Indian worked fine. This also makes A LOT of curry so if you are cooking for one, half it!
My son and I love this recipe. We love em all, but this one is over the top. Thank you for your blessing of stellar plant recipes.❤
First time viewer! I was digging around KZread trying to find a unique recipe to whip up green lentils with, and you just nailed it! Thank you for sharing your ancestry background with us. It’s amazing how much our past can shape the food we make! A lot of love in the kitchen ❤
This looks so good! I can’t wait to make it! On the DNA, I find it all so fascinating!! I did mine and found out I wasn’t related to my dad! So crazy!! I love and am fascinated by culture and cooking!! We learn so much about each other. Thank you for always bringing it. It’s such a vibe here. 🙏🏻💜
For a week I've been looking for a proper vegan curry recipe, what a coincidence! Definitely trying this one out! Thank you very much, your content is insanely helpful and interesting
I noticed your food prep is very resourceful and minimizes food wastage. I am inspired Thank you!
@Andrew Bernard.. stumbled across your channel last week and I'm truly amazed at how simple but yet in depth your ingredients are. I can listen/watch your channel all day my man. I have tried several recipes and will continue to follow! ✊🏽
I appreciate what you do for us. Thanks for sharing those amazing recipes! ❤
I made this, and it was absolutely AMAZING!!! A couple of days later, the flavors intensified and were even better. I will make this again and again.
Back to your roots. Thanks for sharing this authentic Jamaican curry. Gonna try it later this week.
Your recipes never disappoint! Just watching inspires me to cook more dishes outside my comfort zone
Sounds insanely good! Love the idea of the melding of cultural flavors! Gonna try this!
OMG, this is the BEST! 😍I make curried lentils with coconut milk and spinach all the time, but this is Next Level. I love using the 2 different types of curry, adding the peanut butter (I used almond butter) and lime juice at the end. Oh, and toasting the spices in the beginning makes a huge difference. I'm glad I doubled the recipe. 😋 I'm so excited I stumbled upon your channel.
I love how you do everything so nearly; and that little whisker thingy lol love it!
I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m Making the switch the a WFPB diet and I also have a gluten sensitivity. AND I LOOOOVE food. Especially Jamaican (Also married to a Jamaican man). These recipes are a life saver!!! THANK YOU

Another delicious recipe thank you for sharing Andrew what one my favorite spices being raised by a Jamaican born and raised mother , curry was always and still is one of my favorites.
I made this and it was outstanding! Excited to make more of your food!
Going to India is a game changer! !
I'll have to try this lentil curry with the rice and peas. Definitely recommend the rice and peas. Sooo good! Thank you for creating these recipes for us.

The scotch bonnet pepper, when added whole, is only used to extract flavour, not heat. Unlike most other peppers, scotch bonnet is really flavourful.

I loved this video! I watch a lot of cooking stuff on youtube, but this one is really cool. I generally don't like the ASMR approach and usually I just quit, but the way you prepared your vegetables, I just couldn't quit. So I really enjoyed the cooking process - despite no words spoken. And then you sit down and talk to us, explain the process, share some great insights (alternatives to coconut milk!) and bring the video to a close. This is actually a very unique approach and I enjoyed it a lot! Good job there, so looking forward to watching more of your videos!
I literally just returned from Jamaica and this was in my feed (Lord Google knows everything! 😱). Looks delicious. Thanks for sharing!
