Do use a good quality broth it is essential for the depth of flavor.Not all curry blends are the same, to get the right flavor you do need an island style mixture, such as my Jamaican Curry Blend. Yes, also available on Amazon.I have subbed the scotch bonnet with red spicy cayenne peppers, do use scotch bonnet chilies if you can find them.Blend the tomatoes and peppers like I have done, it will permeate even flavor for your rice. It does not have to be a super smooth puree.Please make sure that with the puree and the rice you have 1 cup of liquidthat is reasonably thin, it will absorb the rice nicely. In my recipe, this is the broth.The instant pot version while hands-off is probably a more advanced take on instant pot cooking, so check out the stove top version as well.To keep the recipe vegan, you can finish with a nice dollop of coconut oil.This dish is traditionally served with a Nigerian style salad, sliced cucumbers and boiled eggs. Some more complex accompaniments can be this Nigerian Lamb Stew and or Coconut Chicken Curry.
