Recipe Description

This vegan take on the traditional Haitian dish, Diri ak Djon Djon, offers a unique and flavorful dining experience. Made with the rare black mushroom native to Haiti, this dish features aromatic jasmine rice infused with the earthy tones of the mushrooms, enhanced with spices and vegetables for a hearty and fulfilling meal.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup dried black mushrooms (Djon Djon)
  • 2 cups jasmine rice
  • 1 medium onion, finely chopped
  • 1 bell pepper, diced

  • 3 cups water
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil

  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 cup diced carrots
