Bahamas Cooking

This week, we tried Bahamas cuisine. Here were the dishes we cooked:

  • Conch fritters - I've not eaten conch before. It's sea snail. We made fritters through this recipe. Miriam's family loved it. For me, it was too rubbery. 6/10.
  • Rice and peas -This was easy to cook. We followed this recipe. In theory, it should be with pigeon peas. Since there was none in the supermarket, I substituted it with green peas. Apparently, lentils or beans would have been a better substitute. It tasted great. 9/10.
  • Guava duff - a pastry with guava. Instead of being baked in the oven, it is steamed. Recipe here. It tasted wonderful. 9/10.
