'Melissa captures her love of food and its roots deliciously'
- Ainsley Harriott



Motherland
is a cookbook that charts the history of the people, influences and ingredients that uniquely united to create the wonderful patchwork cuisine that is Jamaican food today.



There are recipes for the classics, like saltfish fritters, curry goat and patties, as well as Melissa's own twists and family favourites, such as-

Oxtail nuggets with pepper sauce mayo

Ginger beer prawns

Smoky aubergine rundown

Sticky rum and tamarind wings

Grapefruit cassava cake

Guinness punch pie.



Running through the recipes are essays charting the origins and evolution of Jamaica's famous dishes, from the contribution of indigenous Jamaicans, the Redware and Taano peoples; the impact of the Spanish and British colonisation; the inspiration and cooking techniques brought from West and Central Africa by enslaved men and women; and the influence of Indian and Chinese indentured workers who came to the island.

Not even close on the size
Size: 3X-Large, Color: White
Size is not even close to correct. Ordered a 3xl but the actual size was closer to a XL or even a large. Be wary on the sizes. They are not accurate

Fairly good quality. Hubby wore this as fun alternative to his regular tux in a cruise elegant night. Looked sharp and we even got family pictures in it.

Bought this for my son's junior prom and it looked so good on him. I had to get a few alterations done because it was a bit too big for him but all in all great quality for the price.
