Festival
Sweet Jamaican cornmeal-and-wheat festival with brown sugar and milk.
About Festival
Roxy Chow Down presents festival as the sweet fried dough familiar alongside Jamaican beach-style meals. The long, slender pieces have a distinctive cornmeal-and-wheat base and are also enjoyed on their own.
Brown sugar supplies sweetness, while cow's milk enriches this rendition. Yellow cornmeal gives festival its characteristic flavour and texture, with salt balancing the dough.
The golden exterior contrasts with a light, soft centre. The cylindrical pieces make a simple serving, bringing together the crisp surface and gently sweet interior described in Roxy's recipe.
