This recipe makes fantastic rice and beans. I serve it with Jerk Chicken and Mango salsa and it is the perfect compliment.

I thought these recipes were suppose to be Bahamian. I don't see anything here that is. For future reference when chefs of these types of shows go to another country claiming to be able to cook the dishes there go to a native to learn how. I don't mind the twist but I was really expecting a Bahamian dishes. And for those who think I may not know what I'm talking about I live in the Bahamas.

We cooked this at the firehouse to go with another dish from foodnetwork. This was excellent, and it is highly recommended. We did not have the rice vinegar here, so we substituted with white vinegar. It was actually quite easy to make.
