Ital Stew is a wholesome Jamaican dish rooted in Rastafarian philosophy, made by simmering pumpkin, carrots, callaloo, okra, cabbage, beans, and other seasonal vegetables in coconut milk, seasoned with scallions, garlic, thyme, and pimento—with no salt, meat, or artificial additives. Originating from Rastafarian communities in the hills of Jamaica, this stew is a celebration of natural living and spiritual purity. It’s typically enjoyed with ground provisions, brown rice, or dumplings, and varies widely based on available local produce.

Common variations include Ital stew peas, Ital with red peas and spinners, and spicy Ital with Scotch bonnet for added heat.
