This classic Hoppin' John is a nourishing and filling dish that has long been celebrated for its deep, savoury flavour. A staple of Southern-style cooking, this high-protein meal relies on the slow-simmering of dried black-eyed beans with a smoked ham hock to create a rich, salty broth. The addition of a dried chilli provides a subtle heat that cuts through the richness of the pork, making it an incredibly comforting choice for a midweek supper or a hearty weekend lunch.

As a versatile one-pot recipe, it is perfect for those seeking a healthy and economical way to feed the family. The long-grain rice absorbs all the aromatics from the onion and ham, ensuring every bite is packed with flavour. Serve this dish alongside some steamed greens or a crisp salad for a well-balanced meal that provides a fantastic boost of plant-based protein and essential nutrients.

Ingredients for Hoppin' John

240ml small dried beans such as cowpeas or black-eyes
1200 to 1450ml water
1 dried hot pepper (optional)
1 smoked ham hock
1 medium onion, chopped (about 140g )
190g de arroz blanco de grano largo

How to make Hoppin' John

Wash and sort the peas. Place them in a saucepan, add the water, and discard any peas that float. Gently boil the peas with the pepper, ham hock, and onion, uncovered, until tender but not mushy — about 1 1/2 hours — or until 475ml liquid remain. Add the rice to the pot, cover, and simmer over low heat for about 20 minutes, never lifting the lid.

Remove from the heat and allow to steam, still covered, for another 10 minutes. Remove the cover, fluff with a fork, and serve immediately.
