Steamed corned beef is a classic Bahamian dish also known as 'Fire Engine'. Traditionally served with grits for breakfast or with white rice for lunch or dinner. Steam is a Bahamian term for anything fried down and simmered in a tomato base (bologna, pork chops or chicken can also be served this way). Ingredients:
1 (12 ounce) can corned beef |
1/4 green bell pepper, chopped |
1/4 onion, chopped |
1 teaspoon vegetable oil |
2 teaspoons tomato paste |
1/4 cup water |
1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1/4 teaspoon dried thyme |
salt and pepper to taste |
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion, green pepper, red pepper flakes and dried thyme; cook and stir until the onion is beginning to brown, about 7 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and stir in the tomato paste and season with salt and pepper. Simmer for 3 minutes then stir in the water. Mix in the corned beef and then let it simmer until most of the liquid has evaporated.
