Cow Foot and Beans
Jamaican cow-foot stew with butter beans, thyme, scallions and optional Scotch bonnet.
About Cow Foot and Beans
Jamaican-recipes.com describes cow foot as a familiar Jamaican stew traditionally associated with weekday meals. This rendition pairs pieces of cow foot with canned butter beans in an aromatic broth.
Thyme, scallions and black pepper give the stew its seasoning. Scotch bonnet is optional, providing a hotter version for those who include it, while the butter beans contrast with the tender cow-foot pieces.
Plain white rice is one suggested accompaniment. Optional flour-and-water spinners add small dumplings to the stew, alongside the beans, meat pieces and broth.
