🇯🇲 Jamaica recipe
Festival
Festival is a sweet, fried cornmeal dumpling that is uniquely Jamaican. Unlike its savory cousin the fried dumpling, festival has sugar and vanilla that give it a dessert-like quality. Shaped into small elongated fingers, they are deep-fried until golden brown and slightly crispy on the outside while remaining soft and pillowy inside. They are the essential street food companion to jerk chicken and fried fish.
