Marinade
10 scallions, white and pale green parts, roughly chopped
1/4 cup soy sauce (low-sodium)
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 tablespoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 cup fresh thyme leaves
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon minced ginger
2 tablespoons minced garlic (about 6 to 8 cloves)
4 habanero peppers, stemmed
1/4 cup brown sugar
Zest and juice of 2 limes
Zest and juice of 1 orange
Pork Stew
3 pounds country-style pork ribs, cut into 1 1/2-inch cubes, with fat pockets trimmed
2 Russet potatoes, cut into 1-inch cubes
2 carrots, diced
1 cup peas
1 13.5-ounce can of coconut milk
Chopped cilantro, for garnish

1
Put all the ingredients for the marinade in a food processor and blend to a smooth puree. Mix the marinade thoroughly with the meat (use a spatula!) and refrigerate for a day.
2
Heat oven to 325u00b0 F. Transfer the meat and all the marinade to a Dutch oven bring it up to a boil over medium heat.
3
Once it has come to a boil, transfer the Dutch oven, uncovered, to the oven and let the meat braise for 1 1/2 hours until the meat is tender, making sure you stir it halfway through. If a lot of fat floats to the surface, go ahead and ladle some of it off and dispose.
4
Add the potatoes and carrots and cook, covered, until the vegetables are almost tender, about 30 to 40 minutes.
5
Add the peas and coconut milk and cook for another 30 minutes or so, until the meat is absolutely falling apart. Check for seasoning.
6
Garnish with chopped cilantro. Enjoy with steamed rice!
