Read the article in :
500 g beef cubes
300 g calalou
1 medium onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 green pepper, chopped
1 tomato, diced
2 tbsp tomato paste
1 lime (to clean the meat)
1 chili pepper (optional, for those who like it spicy)
1 beef bouillon cube (or 1 meat bouillon)
2 tbsp oil
1 tbsp tsp thyme
Salt and pepper to taste
1 cup water
Spices
Bouquet garni
5 cloves
Wash the beef pieces with water and lime juice. Drain them well.
In a saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the spices, onion, garlic and pepper. Sauté until the vegetables are tender. Add the beef and brown it on all sides.
Once the meat is nicely browned, add the tomato paste, chopped tomato, thyme, chili pepper (if using), bouillon cube, bouquet garni and water. Let simmer over low heat for about 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the meat is very tender.
While the meat is cooking, wash the calalou, remove the ends and, if desired, cut it into rounds.
When the meat is almost cooked, add the calalou to the pot. Let simmer for another 10 to 15
Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper to taste. If the dish is too thick, you can add a little water to adjust the texture.
Your sauce is ready! Tell me in the comments what you enjoyed it with.

Dans le cadre du programme de promotion des droits et de l’épanouissement de l’enfant "Timoun se moun" piloté par l’organisation Action Communautaire de Transformation et d’Intégration Formelle (ACTIF), Kay Jèn Yo organise, du 18 au 24 août 2025 (9h am - 1h pm), "Espas Lajwa", un camp d’été qui cible trente (30) enfants de 7 à 15 ans. Une grande panoplie d’activités éducatives, créatives et ludiques sont programmées pour le plus grand bien des enfants. Ils auront droit à des ateliers de : peinture, crochet, macramé, langue des signes, théãtre, lecture, échec, etc. Dans un contexte aussi traumatogène où la violence est monnaie courante, de telles initiaves sont d’une importance capitale. " Les enfants ne sont pas imperméables au stress et autres pathologies que peut provoquer la situation morbide qui sévit dans le pays actuellement", souligne Blondy Wolf Leblanc (Gabynho) DG a.i de ACTIF. "Espace Lajwa se veut donc, un refuge, un lieu où les enfants peuvent s’exprimer en toute sécurité, un espace sécurisant où ils peuvent exprimer leurs émotions à travers plusieurs médiums", précise-t-il. Plus loin, l’animateur socioculturel encourage d’autres structures à travers le pays à prendre des initiatives de ce genre au bénéfice de la santé mentale des enfants. Espas Lajwa est quasiment gratuit. Un frais de participation de 150 gourdes est requis pour la semaine. Quid Kay Jèn Yo Issu du projet "Pran Swen Tèt ou", Kay Jèn Yo est un projet de l’organisation ACTIF supporté par La Perfection École de Haute Couture visant à combattre la violence par l’engagement communautaire à travers des programmes de formation professionnelle et artistique.
