Belizean Fu-Fu (Mashed Plantain)

I bought a recipe book by a local women’s group on my recent trip to Belize (Silly Bug & Bittle Recipes) and this one sounds like something I would like. I love plantains and I love mashed sweet potatoes, so I’m guessing I would like this. The original recipe calls for just the plantain but the site requires at least 2 ingredients so I added butter and salt as I have a feeling I’ll add a little of both, but will give it a try plain first and then modify as needed.

Belizean Bread Pudding

Belizean Bread Pudding is a traditional Belizean recipe for a classic baked dessert made with coconut milk, evaporated milk and rum. I found this recipe on the BelizeAttractions website, and I thought it was worth a try.

Belizean Baked Rice Pudding

I bought a recipe book by a local women’s group on my recent trip to Belize (Silly Bug & Bittle Recipes) and this one sounds like something I would like. I’ve tried a few rice pudding recipes before, but never had it baked. The recipe says you can serve it warm or after cooling. I have no idea how much this makes or how long you should bake it, but I’ll update the recipe as soon as I make it or you leave me a review to give me the information.

Belizean Traditional Beans and Rice

This is the way they do Beans and Rice in Belize. The recipe is from a native Belizean. It is a wonderful addition to Caribbean chicken and fish.

Belizean Style Habanero Sauce – Hot Sauce

I have tried many different hot sauces in my life, with different level of heat. My all time favorite is Marie Sharp’s. Nothing can beat the combination of heat and flavor. My wife was born in Belize and she introduced me to Marie Sharp and she gave us a tour of her factory outside Dangriga, Belize. When we visit Belize we always bring a ton of her sauces back. However, it can be hard to find hear in the states at a reasonable price, so I use this recipe. It is close enough to hers to satisfy the craving. I like to add some papaya to change it up a little. I have even added a little whiskey to it before. Tasted great.
