Chambre
Rice, beans, pigeon peas and pork simmered together with vegetables.
About Chambre
Clara Gonzalez's chambre combines rice, beans, pigeon peas and pork in one Dominican stew. Longaniza and smoked pork chop provide the meat, with sweet potato and squash adding substance.
Cubanelle pepper, onion, garlic and oregano flavour the pot. Carrot joins the legumes before rice cooks directly in the broth, producing the thick consistency associated with chambre or chapea.
Avocado slices accompany the finished stew, and cilantro is an optional finish. Clara also offers agrio de naranja, a bitter-orange and Scotch-bonnet condiment with garlic and herbs, alongside it.
