Directions

Prepare the blackeyed peas and the puff pastry per the package instructions.
In a large pot over a high flame, heat the oil and caramelize the onion.
Add the garlic and cook until aromatic, about 30 seconds.
Next add the carrots and cook until tender and slightly caramelized.
Add the tomatoes to the pot, breaking them up with your fingers and add the sherry.
Bring to a boil and then simmer until somewhat reduced and thickened. Next add the potatoes.
You will probably need to add some chicken broth to thin the stew.
Cook until the potatoes are tender, then add the blackeyed peas and the remaining ingredients (except the butter) and cook until heated thoroughly.
Adjust the seasoning and add a bit more chicken broth if the stew is too thick.
Add the butter and stir until melted.
To serve, place a pastry cup on a small plate and fill with the stew.

Recipe Note

Control the spiciness of the stew by the amount of Salsa Casera that you use. I like it with a kick so I add more salsa.
