Cassava Pone very heavy, solid, moist cake-like dessert filled with cassava, coconut & raisins. My mother actually made some of this last week, and I’ve been meaning to get the recipe up here. Check it out below…
- 2 cassava tubers
- 1 coconut
- ½ cup sugar
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg
- ½ tsp ground cinnamon
- ½ cup raisins/currants
- 2 tbsp shortening
- Pre-heat oven to 350°F.
- Peel, wash and grate cassava.
- Grate the coconut meat.
- Mix all ingredients with enough water to make a stiff dough.
- Spread in a well-greased shallow baking dish.
- Bake until brown, about 90 minutes.
- Recipe compliments of What’s Cooking In Guyana.
