Sunnys Bammy Buns With Tropical Butter Recipes

BAMMIES

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, mix together the cassava and salt. Add the water, a little at a time, until a dough forms. Divide dough into 6 pieces. With your hands, flatten each piece until it is about 6-inches in diameter.
• Grease a medium skillet with a coating of vegetable oil and put over medium heat. Place one piece of dough in the skillet. When the bammie's edge starts to pull away from the side of the pan, after about 5 minutes, flatten the dough again with a spatula and turn over. Cook for another 5 minutes or until golden brown
• Repeat with the remaining five pieces of dough, adding more oil to the skillet when needed.

SUNNY'S CHAR-GRILLED OYSTERS WITH GREEN GARLIC BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the butter: In a food processor, add the butter, garlic, lemon zest and juice, scallions, parsley, Italian seasoning, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of black pepper. Blend all until smooth, then taste and season with more salt if needed.
• Make the breadcrumbs: In a small bowl, mix the breadcrumbs, cheese and parsley.
• Assemble and grill: Preheat a grill to 600 degrees F.
• Arrange the oysters in their half shells on the back of an upside-down baking rack. Add a heaping teaspoon of the butter to each. Sprinkle each with a bit of the breadcrumb mixture. Place the rack on the grill over the direct heat and cook until the oysters are firm and the breadcrumbs are lightly golden, 6 to 8 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges for spritzing.

EASTER BUNNY BUNS
