Steps:
- 1 Mix the coconut, pumpkin, sweet potato, sugar, spices, raisins, flour, corn flour, and salt together in a large bowl.
- 2 Add the beaten egg, melted butter/margarine, and milk. Mix thoroughly by hand to combine. You should have a thick mixture that drops slowly from a spoon. Add more flour if the mixture is not thick enough; add a bit more milk if it is too thick.
- 3 Fresh green Banana leaves are traditionally used to wrap the conkie mixture. If you have these, strip leaves from stalk with a sharp knife then briefly singe them over an open flame to make them more pliable. Cut the leaves into individual 8 inch squares.
- 4 Spoon 2 to 3 tablespoons of the mixture into the centre of the banana leaf. Fold the leaf around the mixture, taking care not to rip the leaf.
- 5 Steam the conkies on a rack over boiling water in a large saucepan for 1 hour or until they are firm.
- 6 Unwrap and enjoy!
CONKIES
This is a corn based delicacy from Barbados that dates back to the 18th century. Traditionally, it's made and eaten almost exclusively during the month of November. Originally it was made to be eaten during the old British colonial celebration of Guy Fawkes Day on November 5th. Posted for Zaar World Tour 05

Steps:
- Mix the coconut, pumpkin, sweet potato, sugar, spices, almond essence, raisins, flour, corn flour, and salt together thoroughly.

- Place 2 heaping tablespoons of the mixture onto each plantain leaf square, fold the edges to make a neat envelope and tie securely.
- Steam the conkies on a rack over boiling water in a large saucepan, or in a steamer, for about 1 hour or until they are firm.
- Unwrap the conkies and serve on a heated dish.
- Note: I may be off on the amount of servings this makes. It's been a while since I made it.

CONKIES
This is from the Government of Barbados' website. This has got to be one of the most refreshing looking recipes I have ever seen. The recipe does not say how long to steam, but I guess estimate it at about 25 - 30 minutes.
