1 - To make the jerk marinade, combine all the ingredients in a food processor along with 1 tsp salt, and blend to a purée.

2 - If you’re having trouble getting it to blend, just keep turning off the blender, stirring the mixture, and trying again.

3 - Eventually it will start to blend up – don’t be tempted to add water, as you want a thick paste.

4 - Taste the jerk mixture for seasoning – it should taste pretty salty, but not unpleasantly, puckering salty.

5 - You can now throw in more chillies if it’s not spicy enough for you.
