I agree that this recipe deserves 5 stars. DH is learning zaar, as well. He exclaimed "Wow..look at the beautiful color-combination of this dish"...then we ate it and it was as good as it looked. Only thing is, the directions calls for onion, but doesn`t show it in the ingredients...i added 1 whole onion, because we love onions. I agree with Diane S, it was not spicy, and we do like spicy food. However I made it exactly as the recipe states..delicious! This was the very first time I had ever fixed or tasted black eyed peas...but it won`t be the last. This recipe is a keeper in my book!! Thanks, Jckamen, for sharing this with us!
