Festival [Bread]

This goes really well with the Jerk Chicken, and is advertised as going well with any Jamaican dish. The first time I made this, I pretty much immediately had to make a second batch. They go like hotcakes! (Because they are a type of hotcake! Ha!) I think these would be good baked, but I haven't discovered the magic formula of time/heat yet.

---Festival---

Ingredients:
-1 and 1/2 c. flour
-3 Tbsp cornmeal
-1/2 tsp salt
-3 Tbsp sugar
-1 tsp baking powder
-3/4 c. water
-3/4 tsp vanilla

Directions:
Mix the flour, cornmeal, salt, sugar, and baking powder together in a bowl. In a separate bowl, mix the water and vanilla, then gradually work the water mixture into the flour mixture until you have a slightly sticky dough (you may not have to use all of the water to achieve this). Let stand for 30 minutes, then knead and separate into 8 sausage shapes. Roll each sausage shape in a mixture of flour and cornmeal, then pan or deep fry until golden. NOM!
