In Malaika’s Surprise, my most recent picture book, we find Malaika settling into her new life in Canada. For many immigrants, food brings back familiar flavours and evokes feelings of life back home. I include food in my books as a part of setting readers into the world of my characters.
Please join me as I show you how to prepare Caribbean dishes featured in Malaika's Surprise.
On today's menu are fried plantains, cornmeal porridge, and doubles. I even take you to Trinidad and Tobago. Enjoy!
Putting this video together has been fun and represents months of work. I hope you enjoy it.
Below, you will find the cooking video as well as a link to the downloadable pdf with recipes.
Fun facts: My professional writing ✍️ career began in 2011 with a blog called Blue Butterfly focused on my journey through cancer and becoming a vegan. At one point, I dreamed of being a filmmaker, ran a nationally touring Black film festival, and worked at others. 🎞 🎥
