Hubby gone golfing..lil girl gone to cottage for the holiday weekend n big girl coming over soon..going to make some bara n the 2 of us will look at movie on netflix …quiet Sunday! I have some left over lasanga n home-made pizza for her to eat so im not cooking today!

the trick to fry the boiled eggs is to roll them lightly in flour like when frying fish. they come out nice and brown, and no hot oil pitching on you. the old ladies in guyana did it this way

Good tip!!

I never learnt to cook at home .. just made 1 roti for myself ( my sis knead flour though). I left home after high sch n was boarding n lodging in GT until i was 19 . Then my gf n i shared an apt n i learnt to cook from her ( she isnt indo) n also trued to cook based on wht i had observed my sisters n mom doing!! Lol

Got some Bulla Cake at No Frills recently. They were loaded with ginger and molasses. Goes good with warm milk.

Ive seen this. Is a Jamaican store here (owned by a Korean)..i thought they were aniseed biscuits

We learn everyday..im amazed because my sis lived in Jamaica n i never saw this in  home.  

Ive had the easter bun which I dont like as i tis wayyy to sugary for me.

Thnx for teaching me something  new Mits Bhaiya

Im shocked that I didnt know abt this before as I worked n lived in Cayman Is ..where mant Jcans work/live n they have a lot of jcan foods there.  My sis n several of my cuz were teaching in Jca n not 1 of them every spoke abt Bulla cake!

Food Basics carries it so does Metro depending where located. I first bought them years ago thinking they were as Lynn mentioned "anise biscuit"

I recently introduced it to a Guyanese buddy who told me that years ago (back in early 90s) a Jamacian friend told him they were no good (that banna taste box must got a hole). My buddy is now hooked on it.

It goes nice with old cheddar or dunked in coffee.

Here you go, bake your own.

I will try it..ive only seen it in this Korean store that sells Jamaican studd…as itis near our Gyese bread n pastries.  I love anything that has ginger!!

Only Chalo Freshco in my  area so that’s where I go ..lol but hubby often shops at No Frills n Sunny’s
