Each time I go to the Caribbean, I feel like I’m in food heaven.
As part of their latest campaign, “New Year’s Revolution”, Tefal challenged me to use the ActiFry to create something delicious and healthy with a little taste of the Caribbean.
If you’re not already familiar with the ActiFry, it’s an iconic kitchen appliance sometimes called an “air fryer”. It works using hot air and a stirring paddle, meaning you can cook up a big batch of tasty, crispy, evenly cooked chips with just one small spoonful of oil.
But it can also be used to make all sorts of other meals, from meatballs to stir-frys, to cakes (check out my blueberry cake to see how well it works!)
So, with Caribbean flavours on my mind, I grabbed my trusty jar of jerk seasoning marinade from the fridge and got to work on a simple side dish that takes minimal active prep and is packed with beans, lentils and peas that you’ll often find in Caribbean cuisine.
I must stress, this fiery lentils and beans recipe isn’t an authentic Caribbean dish, rather a homage to those wonderful flavours and a way to experience a new dish outside of your normal homecooking.
So, if you tend to stick to only enjoy Caribbean food when out to eat, or even if the only beans you usually to cook with are the ones that you put on toast, and then this is a great way to shake things up!
You might not have heard of some of the pulses we’re using, but don’t worry, they’re all easily found in the World Food’s aisle – look for the Caribbean section.
So, let’s plug in the Actifry and make some hot hot hot lentils, beans and peas in jerk marinade.
And here’s the full recipe for this fiery lentils and beans dish.
Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil (or 1 Actifry spoonful)
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 red or green chilli, deseeded and finely chopped (leave out if you like it a little less fiery)
- 2 tbsp jerk seasoning marinade (the paste kind, not the
- 2 tsp turmeric
- 4 salad tomatoes, chopped
- 265g (9.3 oz) green lentils (390g/13.8 oz can in water before draining)
- 130g (4.6 oz) kidney beans (210g/7.4 oz can in water before draining)
- 240g (8.5 oz) black eye beans (400g/14.1 oz can in water before draining)
- 240g (8.5 oz)
gungo peas (400g/14.1 oz can in water before draining) - 270g (9.5 oz) green pigeon peas (425g/15 oz can in water before draining)
- 700ml (1.4 pt) boiling water or your preferred stock
Instructions
Put the oil, onion, garlic, chilli and jerk marinade into the bowl of the Actifry and close the lid.
Set to manual mode, temp 220C/425F, set the timer to 10 minutes and press start.
Add the turmeric, tomatoes and all of the lentils, beans and peas, plus the freshly boiled water or stock and close the lid.
Set to manual mode, temp 220C/425F, set the timer to 20 minutes and press start.
Taste to determine if you’d like to add a little more moisture to the dish. If so, simply stir in a splash of freshly boiled water.
And that’s it. An amazingly satisfying, high protein and deliciously fiery side dish.

This recipe looks amazing. Defiantly willing to give it a go.
Margaret Mccaffery says
It’s something that my family would probably like to try.
Mark Mccaffery says
I’ll probably have to have a couple of gos at it before I get it quite right.
Antikhab Hussain says
look fun to eat and easy to cook
Brad Start says
I must admit, it sounds delicious. There is only one way to check if it tastes as good as it sounds……But I will need an Actifry Genius to complete the text
Kayleigh Watkins says
A fantastic giveaway, with three children and a fiance with heart failiure cooking healthy meals is always at the fore front of my mind, I have looked at these healthy air fryers but worry about the taste of food, your review is great, thank you very much for the chance to win one xxx
Catherine Buchan says
Excellent healthy dish full of protein and with a good kick of spice. It wouldn’t take long to rustle up with an ActiFry. I’d love to give this a go.
Lindsey Stuart says
This recipe is definitely a dish that I will cook up soon, I love Lentils, Infact slimming world recommends buying Heinz lentil curry but I have had an awful trouble finding it,
This recipe looks and sounds delicious, i love that it is fiery! Yum thank you ever so much for sharing with us.
I will let you know how mine turns out.

Sylvia Dixon says
Very healthy indeed, no need for any senocot after a plate of this.
Wendy C says
I would have to tweak the recipe a bit, I don’t like “fiery” and probably wouldn’t put all those beans in (I haven’t even heard of some of them lol). So mmmm yes it wouldn’t be the same recipe but I am sure it would taste great.
Ritchie Dee says
The recipe looks very tasty – but I think I’d go with half a chilli the first time in case it is too hot with a whole one
Karen Usher says
Oh my goodness, I cant wait to try this!!!!
Solange says
I think the recipe sounds delicious and easy to make.
DENISE CROSS says
These recipes look delicious
Angie McDonald says
It is definitely a recipe I would try, I love food with some spice and flavour combinations and I would definitely serve it with rice
Warren Jacobs says
I’ve been tempted to get one of these for a while and had no idea how versatile they were – I thought all they basically did was chips. Its good to see great healthy food being cooked in one and certainly changes my perception of the air fryers. The recipe looks awesome.
Michelle Downs says
This looks really hearty and delicious can’t wait to try it .
Ellen Stafford says
The recipe and pictures look amazing. Definitely one I would like to try out x
Claire s says
I have had my eye on one of these for ages. Healthy way to make cooking interesting again:-)
Claire woods says
It does look nice but I don’t like anything too spicy
Helen Gelhard says
This recipe looks great, just need an ActiFry to try it ;-)
Jane Berrow says
This recipe looks worth a try. It will make a change to use the Actifry for something different to chips.
Natalie Green says
Looks very simple to follow
Kristie Metcalfe says
I think that it would have too much of a kick for me. A lot of recipes for vegan/vegetarian dishes all seem to put a whole lotta spice etc into the dish, which I do not enjoy! Would there be another kind of seasoning which could be used with the same ingredients?
Emily Leary says
You could just use less :)
Margaret Adamson says
I like the sound of this recipe and will be trying it. Can’t say I’ve heard of some of the ingredients though As long as it’s hot and spicy it will be a winner here and will remind us of our recent Jamaican holiday
bev says
I’m going to try it. I adore carib food but have never tried this one. I bet it would be nice with plantains.
Stewart Smith-Langridge says
the recipe has my mouth watering and that’s just after I’ve had my tea. Lovely ingredients and a bit of spicy flavouring.
Maggie Norvell says
It looks scrumptious – I can’t wait to try it. Very healthy, too.
ruth robinson says
looks really tasty and good for you too but i would prefer more sauce with mine
Helen CJ says
Lovely sounding recipe! I can’t wait to try it out
Jo m welsh says
This sounds like something my husband would really enjoy.
Katie says
This recipe looks delicious! Something I would love to try
Peter Watson says
I think I would love this recipe except I have an allergy to chillis which spoils the whole thing really for me.
Paul Tucker says
A great alternate to a meat curry.
iain maciver says
it looks very tasty indeed will have to try this one
Mark Milsom says
I know quite a few people who are vegetarian and would love this recipe…. I have saved it to use in the summer as part of my BBQ menu’s !!!
janh says
I have tried similar with loads of beans when in the Caribbean, thoroughly enjoyed the taste.
Joe Saunderson says
Love the idea of the active fry! The recipe looks awesome

It looks nice and easy and not a style of cooking we usually eat. How fab to try something a bit different for a change
Ro day says
I like that it is healthy yet I can do it quickly, easy which means during a week day
