Mississippi Mud Pie

image

After having Mississippi Mud Pie several times before at Hummingbird Bakery  I kept telling myself i must attempt this, so I finally did :D. Although I decided on not making the whipped cream for the topping as it was quiet late on Sunday night (hence my store bought pastry case) and I couldn’t be bothered for the whipped cream. So we just swapped it for ice cream instead

GINGER BEER BATTERED FISH AND CHIPS

There was nothing special about this, other than we wanted fish and chips and we decided to make our own…lol lol luckily we had some cod pieces in the fridge. We didn’t have any beer tho for batter but we did find a can of ginger beer lurking around lol lol lol which I thought added a really nice flavour…

Butterfly Cupcakes

image

These butterfly cupcakes were honestly an after thought as I didn’t plan on making any afters (Brits term used for desserts eaten after dinner) for Sunday dinner,but we were in desperate need for some sugar…lol lol so ‘simple sponge cupcakes’ popped into the other half’s head, and away i went to the kitchen. What was suppose to be a simple mix and bake turned into; mix,bake, cut-out,fill and design…lol lol lol  In the end i was in the kitchen for a lot longer than planned but left with my sweet tooth totally satisfied :D

KURMA (mahti)

image

Kurma is one of my favourite East Indian influenced Trinidadian snacks. So instead of always buying it or asking someone to bring for me when they go to Trinidad, I decided to make my own,but with a twist… I came across this version from the inner gourmet which i believe is Guyanese . The difference is that these were a bit softer and had coconut and more spices, i left out the anise seed as i didn’t want any crunchy bits in it. I can honestly say these tasted great but i still prefer the Trinidad Version but i might be bias :d

TRINIDAD COCONUT BAKE

image

Another Traditional Trinidadian Dish Called ‘Coconut Roast Bake’ well  in Trinidad, ‘bake’ is a term for any unleavened bread with fat cut into dry ingredients . The dough can be either deep fried “Fry Bake”, cooked in the oven, “Roast Bake” or cooked on a stove top- “Pot Bake”. You can serve it with whatever you fancy; butter,cheese and the ever so popular saltfish. Coconut bake simply has fresh coconut flesh milk incorporated into the dough.
