Day 22

Fungi or Coo Coo

(Depending on which Island Your From!)

Similar to, what Americans call Polenta, this Caribbean staple can be cut into slabs or sliced, grilled on the grill, pan fried or as is, smootherd in fish broth or curry (my favorite)

Fungi

3 cup unsweetend coconut milk

3/4 tsp. salt

1 cup cornmeal

additions: I added beans and spinach.  Pigeon peas or Okra is commonly added.

Bring the coconut milk and salt to a boil. If your using additions, add to the pot prior to boiling.

Once the "milk" is boiling, slowly add cornmeal, stirring vigorously until all added.

Continue cooking and stirring until the mixture pulls away from the side of the pan.

**For a softer  variation, use an additional 1/2 cup water or coconut milk.

Pour into dish and let set. Serve warm.
