Easy Guava Duff

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 23 Dec 2019 16:50:00 +0000

So, there is a simpler way to make guava duff; who knew? Even though nothing beats a guava duff made from fresh guavas, I had to settle for canned; not only because of the season, but it seems as if homegrown guavas are becoming such a rarity these days. Surprisingly, the canned stuff really delivered! The prep time for this recipe has been reduced considerably; which probably makes it one of the easiest ways to make guava duff. This recipe could also double as a guava swirl.

Disclaimer: This is guava duff, done my way, of course; so please don’t come for me, lol.

Ingredients:

Dough:

3 cups flour
4 tsp baking powder
4 tbsp sugar
½ tsp salt
2 eggs
1 cup milk
1tsp vanilla
½ cup melted butter

Filling:

Two 12 oz canned guavas

Sauce:

Cream cheese
Guava
Guava syrup
Coconut milk
Vanilla

Instructions:

Sift dry ingredients in a large bowl and mix.
Mix in egg, butter and vanilla
Add milk a bit at a time and mix until a firm dough forms. Use more milk if needed.
Drain liquid from guava and set aside.
Crush guava with a mixer or blender.
Knead dough on a lightly floured surface and roll out to desired width.
Spread filling on dough approximately one inch away from the edges.
Roll the dough (just like a jelly roll) and seal the edges.
Steam the dough in a greased double boiler (or whatever you have) for about 45 minutes to one hour or until properly cooked.

Sauce:

Blend all ingredients until smooth.
Pour over duff before serving.

Bahamian Chicken Souse

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Wed, 14 Feb 2018 00:49:00 +0000

Bahamian chicken souse is a delicacy enjoyed primarily at breakfast time. It is mainly consumed with either johnny cake, homemade bread or yellow grits.

This is not an exact science, so by all means, please feel free to change the proportions to your specifications. Here is how I prepared mine.

Ingredients:

12 chicken wings
3 Irish potatoes (cubed)
2 cups cut carrots
1 small chopped onion
6 cups water
Salt
Pepper
Garlic Powder
Lemon/lime juice

Preparation:

Section chicken wings by locating the joint and cutting with a sharp knife or kitchen shears. As an alternative, you may ask your butcher to do it for you.

I always “scold” the wings first by placing them in a pot with just enough water to cover them along with a tablespoon or two of salt. Once the water starts to boil, I turn the stove off and allow the wings to sit in the salted water for about half an hour before rinsing them off.

Cooking:

Place chicken in a pot; add water and all of the vegetables.
Add salt, pepper, garlic powder and lemon/lime juice to taste.
Cook on medium-high heat until the chicken is thoroughly cooked and the liquid starts to reduce.
Serve it while it’s hot!

2 – 3 lbs ground beef
3 cups pasta sauce of your choice
1 can (14 oz) whole kernel corn
Salt
Black or Cayenne Pepper
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder

Directions:

In a large pot bring water and 1 tbsp. salt to a boil.
Add macaroni to boiling water, cook until it’s al dente or a little longer if you prefer your pasta a bit softer.
While pasta is cooking, season ground beef with salt, pepper, onion and garlic powders.
Cook thoroughly in a non-stick or lightly greased skillet. Drain off any excess liquid.
Add sauce to ground beef/turkey and mix well. Ensure the mixture is seasoned to your taste
When macaroni is done cooking, drain off water. Add all other ingredients to the pasta one at a time, combining well. Take care to add cheese a little at a time so that it melts properly. Leave enough cheese to sprinkle on top. Lastly add and combine the beef mixture.
Pour into greased 13ʺ x 9 ʺ pan then cover with remaining cheese.
Place in a 350 degree oven and bake until golden brown or slightly brown.

Ever since I heard the song “She’ll be coming ‘round the Mountain,” I have been haunted by chicken n’ dumplings, lol!! Let me tell ya, this was like no soup I’ve ever tasted, talk about real comfort food.

This dish will definitely be a mainstay our house because it is so simple and so delicious.

2 cups fat free chicken stock
4 pieces seasoned chicken (drumsticks & thighs)

Banana Cake

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Mon, 25 Feb 2013 19:03:00 +0000

The outcome of this hassle-free cake was not what I had initially planned. I started out making a cobbler, but I ended up with this instead. Some of the best inventions came about by accident.

Ingredients:

2½ - 3 cups flour
2 bananas (sliced)
1 tbsp baking powder
1½ cups sugar
¼ tsp salt
½ cup evaporated milk
½ cup canola oil or 1 cup melted butter
1 tsp ground cinnamon

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Sift flour and baking powder in a mixing bowl, add remaining dry ingredients and mix well.
Add milk and oil, beat until smooth.
Pour batter in a large greased baking pan.
Place banana slices on top of batter.
Bake for 30 to 45 minutes (or perform the toothpick test).

French Fries and Drumsticks

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 21 Feb 2013 23:14:00 +0000

Sometimes when you’re scratching your head wandering what’s for lunch or dinner, the answer is right under your nose, or in this case, right on your kitchen counter, or wherever it is you store your potatoes. On the menu today: french fries, laced with ketchup and they go great with those chicken drumsticks I did earlier. The kids are in dog heaven right now☺

Ingredients:

4 – 5 medium potatoes
2 cups canola oil
Salt (optional)
Ketchup (optional)

Directions:

Pour oil in medium pot (hard bottom) or frying pan and set on medium-high heat.
While the pot is heating wash, peel and slice potatoes about ½ inch thick.
Cut into strips (whatever size you choose).
When the pot is hot (about 350 degrees), fry your potatoes until they are golden brown – for me it took approximately six minutes. Do not overcrowd the pot.
Place on paper towels or in a colander to allow excess oil to drain off.
Lightly salt while still hot (optional) and dot with ketchup (optional).
Serve and enjoy.

My chicken drumsticks were seasoned with salt, black pepper and garlic powder. I lightly coated them with flour before frying for about 4 minutes on each side. To make sure my chicken was cooked all the way through, I placed them in a 350 degrees oven for an additional fifteen minutes. Bear in mind that “Old Betsy” doesn't cook as fast as she used to, so your oven may require less time.

Guava Cobbler

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Thu, 14 Feb 2013 02:01:00 +0000

Just hearing the word cobbler gets me drooling, lol! My husband suggested the guava cobbler, (I had originally planned on doing a peach cobbler, but I had no peaches). This cobbler was done with canola oil, because I was out of butter. Result – not bad, not bad at all.

Ingredients:

1 – 16 oz can guava shells (in syrup)
1½ cups flour
1 tbsp baking powder
*1 tbsp sugar
¼ tsp salt
½ cup evaporated milk
¼ cup canola oil
1 tsp ground cinnamon

*If you don’t plan on using the syrup from the guava shells then you would need additional sugar and maybe a bit more liquid.

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Drain syrup from guava shells and set aside.
Roughly chop shells and place in a bowl, add a sprinkle of cinnamon and set aside.
Sift flour and baking powder in a mixing bowl, add remaining dry ingredients and mix well.
Add milk, guava syrup and oil, beat until smooth.
Pour batter in a greased pan.
Spoon guava on top of batter.
Bake for 30 to 45 minutes.

You may serve your cobbler with whipped cream or vanilla ice cream.

Veggie Rice

noreply@blogger.com (Unknown) — Fri, 08 Feb 2013 19:21:00 +0000

Even if you’re not crazy over vegetables, this is a great way to get a serving or two in your system. As always, remember to adjust the quantities to accommodate the size of your family.

Ingredients:

4 cups white parboiled rice
½ cup cooking oil
6 oz tomato paste/ tomato sauce
14 oz can kernel corn (with liquid)
14 oz can sweet peas & carrots (with liquid)
3 – 4 cups water
salt (to taste)
½ tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder

Directions:

Place a medium/large hard-bottom pot on medium heat and add oil.
Stir in tomato paste/sauce followed by peas, carrots and corn.
Add water, salt and other seasonings.
Bring to a boil, and then add the rice.
Reduce heat (medium-low) and cover pot.
Allow to cook for about 20 minutes, be sure to test the rice to ensure that it’s cooked through.

Makes about 8 servings

Tip: one great way to get my rice to cook all the way through without adding more water is to “trap” the heat in the pot. You do this by placing a piece of plastic or foil over the rice and placing the lid back on, reduce the heat to a very low setting and allow it to “soak” for a few minutes. Watch your pot and don’t let your rice burn.
