Jerk seasoning š 
Grilling this jerk chicken tomorrow for lunch with a friend. Thereāll also be jollof and plantain. Gonna be awesome.
So my jerk seasoning is always: soy/Worcestershire sauce, sesame oil/a neutral oil, thyme, chilies (as much as you can handle), spring onion, ginger, honey/treacle/sugar, a little water. The sugar/honey or whatever youāre using isnāt to make it sweet really; it just gives balance
Marinade for tomorrowās chicken ā lime zest and juice, grated ginger, garlic, Thai palm sugar, fish sauce, half a tin of coconut milk, 2 Tbsp. Peanut oil, some black pepper. #SaratusEats

Notice thereās no mention of salt. The last thing you need in this world is to add salt to a dish with fish sauce, which is basically anchovy essence.
Made some ragu to go with pasta. #SaratusEats
Ragu, done. Canāt wait to eat it with the pasta for dinner šš½šš½ #SaratusEats
Pasta with that yummy half-lamb and half-beef ragu. Dinner. #saratuseats
Plantain porridge loading.
Usually donāt like to cook when Iām hungry, but letās do it.
Slow down, simmer...
Dinner prep. This has been marinading for 24hrs. Time to get some color on it before I put it in the oven to braise.
Meat browned, then sautƩed some onions and garlic, hella fresh thyme, brown sugar. Then added some stock and, um, Guinness. Now, to braise in the oven for ~2hrs.
(I need a bigger skillet, I know) #SaratusEats

Iām hoping for some sweetness (hence brown sugar) and some smokiness (yaji and coffee) and a nice, rich sauce coating the meat.
First attempt: polenta and egg casserole. Made it extra herby by putting basil and rosemary, made the polenta with hella butter and black pepper.
Just cracked some eggs on this and put it in the oven.

I fried sausages in butter and a little olive oil, then added the polenta over that for some extra flavor.
Brunch. #saratuseats
Tossed some cucumbers in salt, now letting it drain. Iām experimenting with this cucumber salad idea I came across the other day. #saratuseats
Tons of garlic and ginger, ata rodo, Basil, scent leaf in groundnut oil. I usually donāt make my own chili oil, but here we are. Let it get hot, then I turned the heat all the way down. #saratuseats
Rice wine vinegar, soy, peanut butter, chili powder, a little sugar. Then added the cucumbers Iād left draining a while ago. So pretty.
Kinda want chocolate chip cookies.
Just baked some chocolate chip cookies. Made a cortado, too š„° #Saratuseats
