Blue Draws

Hey World!

“[T]he Ghanaian “kenkey” is probably the origin of the Barbadian word, conkie for the above traditional food. In Ghana, Kenkey refers to similarly prepared corn meal dishes.”



In Jamaica, this is a popular traditional food  known as Dukunu aka  Blue Draws (Blue Drawer's) aka Tie-A-Leaf !  Above it is pictured wrapped in banana leaf but when i'm making it at home, i use aluminium foil. The main ingredient is normally cornmeal, sweet potato or cassava but yam may also be used.
