Haitian cooking


A family meal in Haiti is not necessarily taken together apart on special occasions (wedding, celebration, baptism ...), when the meal is served the person who served the meal draws the dish of each person and calls this one to come and get it back. After being served you go and eat at the place you want.
Haitian recipe


Haitian rice hummmm ... What a delight! Among Haitians, they call this recipe "diri ak pwa" (rice with red kidney beans). This rice is by far the kind that I prefer; it is so tasty that I sometimes eat it without side dishes. Haitians will tell you, rice "chèch" (or dry rice which means rice cooked with red kidney beans with no meat or fish).
Note that this recipe is undeniably a must for the Haitian people. I would even go so far as to say that a Haitian recipe site without the recipe on the picture above is not complete.
There are several kinds of Haitian preparation for rice with peas, rice can be done with a variety of different peas; the cooking process is mainly the same except for the cooking time of the different peas (depending on the type of pea, some will have to be boiled less or longer).

Haitian vegetable recipe

The Haitian vegetable recipe is a traditional dish that is by far my favorite. Seriously, I could eat it every day without ever getting bored.
 I confess that at first glance, this pile of boiled and crushed vegetables looks more like a kind of "vegetable meal" not very beautiful to watch, but just take a bite before falling under its charm.
The taste of just seasoned vegetables, whether with beans and rice, white rice, boiled bananas, fried plantain bananas or even simple potatoes, makes this recipe one of the most versatile dishes in Haitian cuisine.
As the name suggests, vegetables are the basis of this recipe. Just like the "soup joumou"( pumpkin soup), one finds many ways to prepare the Haitian vegetables as it  is homemade cooking, but it remains nonetheless the cabbage and the eggplant remain the two essential basic elements in Haitian cooking.
