BAJAN BITTLE | GRACE FRANKLYN | TURNOVERS

Bajan Bittle - A Culinary Excursion
Filling
1 cup Grated Dried Coconut
5 Tbsp Water pinch Ground Spice
4 Tbsp Sugar
1 tsp Vanilla / Almond Essence
Dough
2 cups Flour
1 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp Instant Yeast
1 Tbsp Shortening
2 tb Sugar
1 cup room temp. Water
Glaze
2 Tbsp Brown Sugar
1 ½ Tbsp Water
Method
Line on 8x8 baking pan with baking paper. Mix all filling ingredients together and set aside. Mix glaze ingredients and set aside. In a medium-sized bowl, mix all the dry ingredient, and shortening together. Make a well in the centre and add water slowly, stirring until mixture forms a ball. Mixture will be sticky. Cover and set aside until dough has doubled in size. Place dough onto a floured surface and gently knead for about 3 mins. Roll flat with a rolling pin and cut into 4x5 rectangular shapes. Place a teaspoonful of filling in centre of rectangle, fold ends over filling and roll up to close. Put into baking pan. Set aside until turnovers rise, then, place in oven at gas mark 375, bake for about 15- 20 minutes until golden brown. Remove from oven and brush on glaze. Return to oven for about 5 minutes. Serve warm or let or cool before eating.

I love turnovers, always buying them, never knowing how to make them, thought they were pretty hard to make, but they are not. Tried this recipe it turned out amazing. Smelled and tasted good. Thanks for the recipe. I will be making it again so that I can get the fold,fold, and roll prefected.

Grace can you pls show me my bajan recipe fish cakes and also making coo coo

[@bonitaweekes4366]

I did a class with Grace Franklyn on making Bajan Sweets years ago, it was done through IDC to get people to learn to make Bajan sweets. We were promised all kinds of things by them eg, how to package, best packaging but it never materialised. That was in early 2008, the Government was changed and the new Government abandoned the idea but wasted hundreds of thousands on Summer Camps by giving their their friends catering jobs. The children however did not benefit from the fancy catering. You do these things and then get no help at all, so what's the use?

Truly appreciative of this series. Grace is a great teacher. I made three attempts so far, sizing is not correct but tastes really good

Thanks for sharing this. I'm looking for recipes that mimic what I know turnovers to be: a soft, bread-like texture. I didn't want a recipe with a flaky/puff pastry texture. Simple ingredients too!

First try came out soft and nice but failed at the Roll and turning part.Today I will double the recipe and used the cinnamon roll method in rolling the dough.
