Time 2h15m

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups black-eyed peas
3 1/4 cups water
2 teaspoons low sodium chicken broth
3 1/2 cups diced tomatoes with juice
3 stalks celery
1/2 onion
4 garlic cloves
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
1/4 teaspoon ginger
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup parsley
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • HEAT 2 1/2 cups water and dried black-eyed peas; once at FULL BOIL, continue boil for two minutes, REMOVE from heat, cover and let stand for 1 hour.
  • Then DRAIN whatever water remains and allow peas to sit uncovered.
  • In another saucepan, COMBINE 1 cup water, chicken broth, finely diced onion, finely diced celery, parsley and 2 cans (400g)/3 1/2 cups Diced Italian Tomatoes in juice, mustard, chilli pepper, ginger, black pepper and bay leaves; Bring to a BOIL.
  • ADD cooked black-eyed peas.
  • COVER and simmer on LOW for 1 hour and 45 minutes; STIR occasionally; If liquid is evaporating too quickly, you can add more water to make sure peas are covered with tomato/water mixture.
  • ENJOY!
  • NOTE: Is well worth the time to make and freezes WELL!
  • NOTE: Remove Bay leaves before serving.
  • NOTE: If canned tomatoes do not contain seasoning such as dry Italian seasoning, would suggest you add about 1 tbsp dry Italian seasoning, but is personal preference.
  • NOTE: I serve in tortilla wrap with rocket, feta and Golden Door Recipe - Chilli Sauce.

Meh. I found this recipe to be just okay. The peas were a bit bland, even after I added some extra seasoning. I also thought the cooking time was too long. The peas were starting to get mushy by the end. Overall, I wouldn't recommend this recipe.
