Ingredients
- 3 lbs mutton
- 1 scotch bonnet pepper
- 2 tbsp pimento seeds
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
- several sprigs of fresh thyme
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 yam
- 1 potato
- 1 onion
- 1 cho cho
- 2 carrots
- 2 to matoes
- 2 bay leaves
- 4 cloves of garlic
- 1 tsp tomato puree
Instructions
- Use kitchen scissors to trim any excess fat off the mutton, then cut into pieces about an inch large.
- Put the mutton into a medium or large pot and add enough water to cover the mutton plus a couple inches on top.
- Bring the liquid to a boil. Icky fat bits should float to the top after the boil, so use a spoon to scoop it all out and discard.
- Destem and deseed the scotch bonnet pepper then chop into pieces and add to the pot.
- Also add to the pot the pimento seeds, salt, pepper, thyme, and the pumpkin. Stir.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for about 1 ½ hours.
- Peel the yam and potato and chop into pieces about an inch large. Chop the cho cho the same (no need to peel it though).
- Finely chop the onion and garlic. Chop the tomatoes and carrots into chunks.
- Add all the remaining ingredients after 1 ½ hours of the meat on the stove. Continue simmering for another 30-60 minutes or until the potato is soft enough to cut through with a spoon.
- Depending on how you like your soup consistency, you can add more water for a more brothy soup, or you can turn the heat up and allow some of the liquid to evaporate, leaving you with a thicker stock.
- Spoon into bowls, garnish with a sprig of thyme, and serve.
