Just a tip for next time, in Creole culture we typically add the bell peppers in with the onions and some celery to deglaze the pot after you sear the meat. It's called the Holy Trinity. It's similar to mirepoix, sofrito, or how West Africans like to use onion, garlic and ginger. We also typically use powdered cayenne pepper instead of scotch bonnets for the heat factor; we don't use turmeric or curry powder, which I noticed you may have used. And the spring onion is option but normally a garnish just on the top, don't stir it in. There's also a couple more steps than what you showed but you did good though.
@@804MRMAN 😂 The African version of this dish, which I’ve known about (including that it’s the original) and have eaten since 2007, is called Jollof Rice and is in fact made and flavored in a slightly different way than the North American version of this dish known as Jambalaya. That being said, the absolute original within Africa, which is from the Senegal area, is known as Thiebu Dien and I’ve heard it’s even better than the renditions from other West African countries. A final note: Most of the slaves that ended up in Louisiana, before the Haitian Revolution would’ve brought any significant cultural influence related to their ancestors from Nigeria and Benin, were from the various tribes in what is now referred to as Senegal and Gambian, and maybe even Mauritania and the Guineas, which is an area that was historically called “The Rice Coast” because of the natives’ cultivation of endemic rice species and their higher reliance on it than other areas of West Africa. So it’s not unlikely that the original version of Louisiana Jambalaya may have resembled the original Thiebu Dien, from which all Jollof Rice comes, before changes took place over time.
Shrimp is plural so u added shrimp not shrimps. If u r stating a number like 20 for example then u can correctly say I am adding 20 shrimp or a pound of shrimp. Never a pound, or a bowl or a pan of shrimps. In summary u can use the word shrimp if u r using a specific number. Your dish is simply beautiful and I plan to cook it soon. Your directions were totally on point and easy to follow. Well u have your lesson for today and so have I. Thanks so much!
@@nanaamaserwaadarkwah7636 Thanks for your positive response, there r those who r offended by this , rather than seeing as a learning moment. So again thanks.
