Spur Tree Festival Mix makes traditional Jamaican festival dumplings easy to prepare at home — the sweet, slightly nutmeg-spiced fried dough fingers that are the classic accompaniment to ackee and saltfish, fried fish, jerk chicken, and Caribbean breakfast plates. Just add water, mix into a dough, roll into long fingers, and fry in hot oil until golden brown. The 500g pack contains enough for several family-size servings of festival. A useful kitchen shortcut for anyone who wants the festival flavour without measuring out flour, cornmeal, sugar, and rising agent separately.
