If you are in a foreign country make sure you use the right sweet potatoes or your ducuna will not form.
Recipe
3 cups of grated sweet potatoes (Batata sweet potatoes)
1 cup of grated tania. You can use pumpkin, carrots, a green plantain, flour, or eddo to replace tania if you prefer.
1 cup of grated coconut
2 tablespoons of grated ginger (use black pepper or pepper sauce if you prefer)
1 1/2 cups of sugar (less or more if you prefer)
1/4 teaspoon of salt
1 teaspoon of unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon of cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon of nutmeg
* Mix ingredients well and put mixture in banana leaves, let water boil before cooking and cook for 1 hour.
* If banana leaves are unavailable you can substitute for aluminum foil or clear plastic bag. Use the same folding method as the banana leaves if using the foil but do not tie. If using clear plastic bag, tie it.
*Always double my ingredients if you want to make more.
*Correction- don't tie the stem too tight it can cause the banana leaves to crack up.
Cook on medium high heat or high heat.

Hello from Martinique, we dont have this type of cooking with banana leaf.
❤️❤️❤️
I will test
Hello dear, you won't regret it.😊
Tell U what i'm gonna try now iknow what i have to get .Thanks🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
You will definitely like it.
Nice, i have to try this,,here in Bds we mainly use pumkin, corn flour and little sweet potato instead, with all other ingredient/flavouring shown here..
I will love to try it since I'm a big fan of pumpkin, corn flour, and sweet potato. Such a good combination. You will love this when you try it.❤
We call this paime in Trinidad
Nice,
Thank you!
Sam am proud u my Vincy friend just asked me to try yours ...we both gonna try it together I will get back to u and let you know how it went down.
Thank you! Feel free to use less sugar and less tania if you wish.
Nice. I make tamales/pastelle. It is a similar process.
Wonderful! I will like to taste it one day.
😋😋😋😋
😋😋😋
It came from our ancestors in Africa just some of our caribbean countries change it up in Barbados we use pumpkin instead of what she using recipe same and call it conkie 🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧🇧
Yes it came from slavery days and each country make it differently. I hope one day I can taste conkie. Sounds delicious!
We call this dukunnu in Jamaica 😋🇯🇲
I will definitely love to try dukunnu.
In Jamaica is known as "Blue Draws " also called Dukunoo
True, true!❤❤
Real food we have it in Jamaica too. Nothing like that
Yes you guys use cornmeal and flour in yours. Irie!
Thank you for this recipe, keep them coming girl, but where did u get your banana bush and the thing to tie it? I know u r not in vincy,
Haha! I got the banana bush from the Caribbean market and the stem from my boss's garden. I washed, boiled, and dried them. Good to go!😂
Lol
@@ednajohnson9783 🤣
When do you eat this and what do you eat it with or is it a snack?
We eat it at anytime, by itself as a snack. Also, some people eat it with salfish and vegetables, and with a cup of tea.
Hi Sam...can we use eddos ??
Yes you can use the eddos as well.
Can you make a video on Bread
Sure I will put it on the list of thing to do.
Nice ah war some
Sure!😁
@@samsgiftedhands3998 you are so kind
You great sugar
No lol! The things that need to be grated.😂
@@samsgiftedhands3998 ok make more but u are a great cook
@@montyduncan8069 thank you I will.
Hi sam ,I think I will make mine without sugar,because I know that the potatoes have their natural sweetness, what do you think?
At least for me who is watching her weight 🙂
Great video my friend 👍
Hi Chantal! In my description I mentioned I accidentally used 2 cups of sugar. It was suppose to be 1 1/2 cups. You can used 1 cup, less, or none if you prefer.
@@samsgiftedhands3998 great thank you sam!!
Guadeloupe is doucoune " ducune" but it's with corn, and sugar it's sweet.
Wow I will love to try it, sound delicious. This one is sweet as well.
Do you add a bit of salt in the water?
No I didn't add salt in it. You can go right ahead if you wish.
Hi there Sam,what do u mean it not from st vincent?explain please
Oh yes! I said a snack from St. Vincent and the Grenadines not the opposite. If you listen again you will hear it.😚
Are you going to make black cake or fruitcake for Christmas?
I will try my best!😁
Press Oonn Empress.🇻🇨🦋🕯️🙏🕯️🕯️
Thank you!❤
Can you used parchment paper in you don't have banana leaves?Lovely recipe .
I think it will fall apart if you use parchment paper. We use plastic bags and aluminum foil if no banana leaves are not available. You can read in the description for more information as well.🙂
Once I bought frozen banana leaf at supermarket but smell was awful so never used it. Will foil paper, or wilted corn husk work eventhough they're not as big as bananas leaves. How about foil paper?
Yes we do it in foil paper as well when no banana leaves available. You can try one with the corn husk and see if it works as well.
I’ve been hearing that foil paper is not healthy to use
Me love ❤️ them kind a thing Vincy to the bone 🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇵🇲🇵🇲🇵🇲stuff love ❤️ me find ah new auntie
Haha I love that auntie Sam🤣🤣
I am going to make it like you. I don’t know where I am finding banana leaf but I will figure it out 😂😂😂🤣🤣
You can go to a Caribbean store or Hispanic store. They store them in the fridge.
@@samsgiftedhands3998 thank you!!!!❤️❤️❤️
Asian store have a lot of them
Red hot pepper enhance the taste
Some people use it and some do not. Thank you!
I dont have any tania...can I make it without
Yes you can use without the tania. Also, you can use a green plantain, pumpkin, carrots, or some flour if you don't want to use the tania.
Thanks a lot...how much flour should I use?
@@paradiselocks1248 you can put 1/4 cup of flour. It helps to keep it firm. No problem!
Use some flour yam good to.
Why not blanch the banana leaf in hot water?
You have options. That's the way my grandmother did it so I used her method.
In Barbados we refer to them as Conkies
Yes, they are made differently, the only similarity is the banana leaves.
@@samsgiftedhands3998 its true
In Ghana the call it dokunu
So cool, I wish I can know how you guys pronounce it.
@Yasin Qur'aan thank you I will check out the video.
In Ghana we call it dokunu
@@patienceafflade135 I checked several videos on TH-cam. I will love to try it.
Didn't make it a couple of years now
Wow! 😁
Interesting that no flour was used and it was nice and firm.
No flour whatsoever! I saw my grandmother put flour in hers back then at times but not a lot.
When I was growing up I heard the Tania is a binding agent.
@@annmcb yes eddo as a binding agent. I used to see my grandmother threw in few spoons of flour if she didn't use eddo.
If living in America the name of the potatoes to get is bata
Yes Batata sweet potatoes and you can find them in the Caribbean market.
I never make it i always eat after it finish
Now you will be making your own Josea😄
I did make but i did saltfish to eat it with lol came out nice thanks
@@joseadanzell3321 you are welcome! So glad you did it and it came out great, love it with salt fish too.
blu drawz.
Ducuna in St. Vincent!
Both names are used in Jamaica as well.
What do you mean not from St Vincent and the Grenadines? All of what you make is from SVG. Explain
Ducana is Vinci
Hi Alana! I just catch on lol. Yes I said a snack from St Vincent and the Grenadines. Listen to it again.😄
Ok, 😂😂😂😂💕
Show your face😊
@@alanac1157 I'm so shy lol🤣
You can't be shy, you on social media. I'm sure folks want to see you. I do. It's good for popularity. I'm about uplifting what you do.
@@alanac1157 That is true! I will try my best.
You don’t need butter
No, I don't know why the old folks like they butter, but i still put it. Lol!
No twine please... That will get in to the food taste.. Not good
I never used it but some people use it. Thanks!
It’s from Antigua
