2 medium rib eye

2 small onion

2 gloves garlic

Thyme

Scallion

Crushed pimiento seeds

½ hot scotch bonnet pepper

Pick-a-pepper sauce

Paprika

Corn starch

Soy Sauce

Ketchup

Oil

Method

* Dice all of the seasoning and mix with a little pick-a-pepper sauce and salt.

* Make small holes in roast and stuff the mix seasoning in the holes, all around, leaving enough seasoning to make gravy.

* Add Soy sauce, ketchup, salt, black pepper, paprika, pick-a-pepper and rub along meat. Let stand for a while.

* Heat oil in skillet, shake excess seasoning off. Add meat.

* Cook over medium heat, turning constantly to prevent sticking. Let it brown on each side. Do not add a lot of water. Just a little each time it dries out.

* Keep adding water until cooked.

* When cooked, remove from skillet to make gravy.

* Make corn starch in a paste and add to stock to make gravy. Serve over a bed of white rice or rice and peas.
