Jamaican Bammy
In my blog trekking I found this Bammy Recipe by fellow Jamaican blogger Wellesley on his www.my-island-jamaica.com website.
What’s a Bammy you ask?
Bammy is made from cassava, a perennial woody shrub, grown as an annual crop. It is a pancake shaped, (about 4/12 to 5 inches in diameter) deep-fried cassava bread, which is said to originate with the Arawaks Indians. Bammy is commonly served with fried fish.

Ingredients
A pinch of salt
1 tin of coconut milk
Preparation
Grate it
Wring out as much of the toxic juice as you can and discard the juice.
Add salt
Divide the mixture up in to one-cup sized portions.
Flatten each portion in to a thick disc shape.
Now Cook It!
Add to a greased frying pan Fry each side of the Bammies over a medium heat for 8-10 minutes on each side.
Take out of the frying pan and soak in coconut milk for 5 minutes.
Place the Bammies back in the pan and fry until they are a light brown colour.
