Delect “Cook Up” Corned Beef with Roasted Breadfruit and Callaloo

Delect “Cook Up” Corned Beef with Roasted Breadfruit and Callaloo

Craving a comforting meal that brings you back to basics? Try Delect’s ‘Cook Up’ Corned Beef with Roasted Breadfruit and Callaloo! In the wake of Hurricane Beryl’s recent passing, Delect has embraced the tradition of cooking on a coal stove, recognising that power outages are common during the hurricane season from June to November. Utilising Delect Corned Beef, popularly known as ‘bully beef’, this meal perfectly combines the savoury goodness of corned beef with the rich flavours of roasted breadfruit and fresh callaloo. It’s a nostalgic delicacy that brings a taste of home to your table, even in challenging times. Enjoy the simplicity and warmth of this classic Jamaican comfort food!

 

Total Cooking Time: 1 hour 30 minutes

Ingredients:

• 2 cans Delect Corned Beef

• 1/2 cup Delect Tomato Ketchup

• 1 cup onion, chopped

• 1/2 cup sweet peppers, chopped

• 3 plummy tomatoes

• 6 cloves garlic

• 2 stalks escallion

• 1 sprig thyme

• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

 

Method:

Season and steam the callaloo, then set aside.

Roast breadfruit and allow to cool for 30 minutes before peeling.

Add the Delect Corned Beef and toss for five minutes or until heated through.

Mix in the Delect Tomato Ketchup and remove from heat.

Place the steamed callaloo in the breadfruit halves, then top with the corned beef mixture.

Perfect for cooling down during the sizzling heat, this drink is a tribute to our resilience and resourcefulness as a people, using our local fruits to create something extraordinary. Savour the natural sweetness and refreshing taste of this creamy tropical treat, perfect for any occasion! Enjoy!
