Greeting from Japan.. I love to cook homemade island food. i know i am no expert but i try to cook anything that reminds me of home. I have a recipe that might be good for some of our half cast Pacific Islanders. Best for the Non Islanders. Its Time to impress your hubby with some Island Treat.. This is a family Recipe and i didn't think anyone would like it. But then i had a few people keep asking for the recipe. Now i just want to share it with you all. Here it is.

A taste of Poly homemade Cooking from Litas Kitchen.

"JAM ROLL (Lola Siamu)"

Ingredients:

-6 Cups Flour
-1 Cup Sugar
-400g butter
-6 Egg yolks + 1 Egg
- 5tsp Baking powder
-1/2 cup milk
-1 can coconut milk
- 2pkts coconut flakes
-400g Jam (personal favorite Strawberry and pineapple)
- (Excess flour for the dough)

Preheat oven 170 Celcius.
Grease two Large Rectangular Baking Trays

Directions:

2. In a Large Bowl Mix all the dry Ingredients (Flour, baking powder, Sugar, coconut flakes)
3. slice the butter and add it to your mixture(cake mixer is ok, love using my hand it makes the dough a lot softer)
4. Add Egg yolks + one whole Egg.. Mix well with a spoon.
5. Add coconut milk (if its still dry use sufficient amount of milk to the mixture)
6. mix the dough well . When it comes together it shouldn't be sticky to your hand and you need to make a it pliable.
7. Use some of the excess flour and take a portion from your dough and roll it out.. (MUST: USE YOUR HAND to flattened out the dough)
8. Spread the Jam on top.
9. Fold it inward the longest sides first.
10. Press the Edges firmly to seal the dough .
11. Place it onto the tray just like num 11 on the picture. Should make four big size pies (enough for 4 poly guys, or ten Japanese..lols..)
12. Bake for about 25mins until golden brown. use chopsticks to check if its cooked
13. Leave it out for 20-25 mins before serve (Jam is really hot best for it to cool before you eat)

ENJOY!
