Jamaican Sweet Potato Pudding image

Taken from the Enid Donaldson cookbook. Hell a top, Hell a bottom Hallelujah in the middle! This is a Jamaican riddle and most people know that the answer is a delicious sweet potato pudding, baked in an iron dutch pot or dutch oven with live coals in the bottom of the coal stove and also on the top of the dutch pot. The pudding cooks at the top and at the bottom at the same time. The delicious hallelujah is best liked when the top, called a 'sof pon top', is softer than the rest of the pudding.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my pudding turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much coconut milk.

The pudding was delicious, but it was a lot of work to make. I'm not sure if I would make it again.

I found the pudding to be a bit dry. I think I would add more coconut milk next time.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potato, but I really enjoyed this pudding. It was sweet, but not too sweet, and the spices were perfectly balanced.
