Raymonde’s famous ‘Poul ak Sòs’ Recipe


The much awaited Chicken and sauce recipe of Raymonde's that we all loved so much from our 2009 Solar Oven Partners trip. I was blessed to stay with Montas and Raymonde in May and again in June when I was in Haiti this summer. Raymonde was delighted to help show someone how to cook. This is what she does for work for the Solar Oven Partners and this hasn't been able to happen yet this year due to the Earthquake. So I stood by patiently, listened, and added ingredients and stirred when I was asked to. And of course – Finally wrote down the recipe. J …so enjoy – you may have to make some substitutes because we don't have some of the things they do in Haiti. Also, I have this as it is made in the Solar Oven – adjust as necessary.

Beans – 2 pots

2 Cups – Red mixed beans

¼ cup oil

3 cups coconut juice – strained from 2 grated coconuts
