Added roasted sweet potatoes, garlic and cooked in tomato infused olive oil for extra flavour..... simmered for an hour and really delicious!

Made this recipe using Dunn's River Jerk Seasoning- found it in the World's Foods aisle in a supermarket-it came out delicious! Also simmered it for longer than recipe stated, the sauce got really thick and full of flavour.Will definitely come back to this recipe.
