Caribbean Curried Butter Beans

butter beans (lima beans (340 grams))

coconut milk (400 milliliters/14 oz/ 2 cups)

water (400 milliliters)

carrot (chopped)

onion

ginger (grated)

bay leaves

garlic

scallion (sliced)

bell peppers (chopped)

tomato (chopped)

thyme

tsp of coriander (cilantro)

curry powder

black pepper

paprika

tsp of himalayan pink salt (or more to taste)

scotch bonnet (optional)

Rinse the dried butter beans several times before placing them in a large bowl with enough water to completely cover the beans and soak for several hours or overnight. The beans will swell the longer then soak and absorb some of the water.

Discard the water and rinse off the beans one more time and set aside

Saute the onion, scallion, garlic and 1tbsp of curry powder until soft and translucent.

Transfer the onions, scallion, garlic and butter beans into your slow cooker unit (my unit is removable so I don’t need to do this) add the other 1 tbsp of curry powder, paprika, ginger, bay leaves, coriander/cilantro, black pepper, thyme, pink salt, cho cho, bell peppers, tomatoes and carrots to the unit.

Then add the water and coconut milk, stir, cover with lid and set your slow cooker to low for 6-8 hours.

A hour before completion feel free to add a scotch bonnet for mild heat and flavour.

Discard the thyme stems, scotch bonnet and bay leaves.

Do a taste test before adjusting seasoning if needed then serving accordingly.

Made this recipe exactly as written. Amazing! Flavors are incredible.

I tried this and it worked well even though I had to make some substitutions because of what I had in the house.
I tried to do as you asked re mentioning you but could not. ie:

I LOVE this recipe! I have made this dish several times since finding it, two months ago. It is flavorful, nutritious, and delicious. Thank you Charla! I look forward to exploring more of your recipes. Soon, I am going to make your recipe for Jamaican callaloo.

Had a few friends over the weekend I was stuck for ideas as they are fussy eaters but love butter beans, really wish i'd found this earlier. Had no idea you could do this with butter beans.  It actually tasted as good as it looks

Made this on the weekend as a treat for my husband . We loved it — next time I’m going to double the recipe. Thanks for a wonderful treat.
