JOHNNY CAKES (THE BAHAMAS)



Johnny Cakes (The Bahamas) image

This recipe Is from week 19 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook one meal from every nation on Earth, and The Bahamas are my 19th stop. Johnny cakes are served all over the Caribbean, but they make them a little differently in the Bahamas (without cornmeal).

Categories     Breads

Time 45m

Yield 9-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup shortening
2/3 cup whole milk

Steps:

  • Mix all the dry ingredients together, then cut in the shortening. Work the mixture with your hands until the grains are about the size of rice.
  • Add milk until you get a soft dough (I had to use a bit more than the recipe called for).
  • Turn out onto a floured surface and knead until smooth.
  • Let the dough rest for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a greased 9x9 inch pan. You will have to press it down so it fills in all the corners. Poke the top of the dough a few times with a fork.
  • Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes. You can tell the cake is done when it starts to turn a little golden around the edges.

CARIBBEAN RECIPES: EASY CARIBBEAN FOOD TO MAKE AT HOME

From spendlifetraveling.com
  • Roti. You can find many different versions of roti on the different Caribbean islands. Most versions are served as a dish with the flatbread served on the side.
  • Jamaican Jerk Chicken. This must be one of the most classic Caribbean recipes. I love this authentic Jamaican jerk chicken recipe that comes straight from Chef Morris in Jamaica.
  • Jamaican Oxtail Stew. Jamaican Oxtail Stew is a traditional Jamaican recipe, dating back as far as the 1500s, when the African one-pot cooking traditions were used by the African slaves and maroons on the island.
  • Caribbean Chickpea and Potato Curry. They eat a lot of meat in the Caribbean and at times I find it hard to find vegetarian dishes. But, this chickpea curry is a great exception and you find variations of it on different Caribbean islands.
  • Jamaican Rice and Peas – the Simple & Quick Version. Rice and Peas is one of Jamaica’s staples, but you can find it on many other Caribbean islands as well.
  • Instant Pot Arroz Con Gandules. Arroz Con Gandules is Puerto Rico’s national dish, along with roasted pork. This vegan Instant Pot Arroz con Gandules recipe makes a quick and complete weeknight meal.
  • Caribbean Pepperpot Stew. This Caribbean dish comes from Guyana, where it’s still a popular Christmas dish. In Antigua and Barbuda Fungi and Pepperpot (pepperpot stew with cornmeal dumplings) is considered their national dish.
  • Johnny Cake. If you’re from the US you might know Johnny cakes as you can nowadays find them in the cuisine of New England. Johnny cakes originate from the indigenous people of North America and on many Caribbean islands you find this flatbread made with either cornmeal or flour, and sometimes deep-fried.
  • Trinidadian Doubles. This is some of my favorite street food anywhere in the world! Doubles is a common street food from Trinidad and Tobago, which you can nowadays find on several Caribbean islands.
  • Trinidad Corn Soup. Trinidad corn soup is another popular street food in Trinidad and Tobago. This vegan soup is full of flavors and textures. It’s so delicious that it might just become your favorite soup once you’ve tried it.
