Jamaican Cornmeal Porridge Recipe

Step 1

Add 2 1/2 cups water, 1 can coconut milk to a 4 QT heavy bottomed pot. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.

Step 2

Meanwhile, add 1 cup cornmeal and 1 1/2 cup water to a large mixing cup and whisk until smooth.

Step 3

Once the pot begins to boil, whisk in cornmeal mixture and continue to whisk for about 1 minute, ensuring there are no lumps. Reduce heat to low and cover with a tight fitting lid.

Step 4

Cook over low heat for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. When there is about 5 minutes left, stir in vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and all-spice. Remove from heat and sweeten with condensed milk.

Step 5

Serve and enjoy.
