Oil Down in Grenada
17 09, 17
Here is the sequence for constructing the pot of goodies for Oil Down. First the pot is lined with bread fruit:
Then the meats that take a while to cook are added (in this case Turtle and Lambis)
Then herbs and spices are added
Then bananas, dashine, and more bread fruit
Looking pretty Yummy eh?
More veggies on top before the next layer
Chicken, pork, salt fish and then more herbs and onions, bananas and bread fruit
Now comes the seafood, ochre, carrots and more dashine.
All in the pot before the final topping
Callalou is then put on top the help seal in the steam with coconut milk and turmeric spread on top
Then on to the fire, once it is hot dumplings are added and then she simmers for a couple hours.
Yummy Stuff!!! This was our second Oil Down on Hog Island. I don't know how you could make a small pot of this stuff. Feeds 30 to 40 people and it is rich and yummy.
