Oh, goody! I get to make the founding post in this section!
How could I chose one favorite dish? I can really go for what I call Southern plate: blackeye peas, fried green tomatoes, fried mixed greens (turnip, collard, and poke). Fried in vegetable oil, of course. Switch it up with baked sweet potato sometimes.
Other days, I reconnect with my Mexican heritage: fry up a 18-inch tortilla, filp it over and put a line of refried beans, cheese (leave it out if your vegan), tomatillo, and jalapeno. Fold it into a fajita shape, then turn it so that the side you just closed fries crisp and will not open. Can substitute chayote or nopal for the tomatillo.
My best culinary creation: breadfruit soup. Put chunks of breadfruit (can use canned) in pot with cream of coconut, anatto, allspice, and just a hint of clove and ginger. Boil it up until the breadfruit chunks are as soft as you like. Optional: can add hulled pumpkin seeds for extra protein.
So what are your faves?
