I am Guyanese too - I love to make fish sandwiches with butter flaps!! They are the best comfort food. I usually season, lightly flour and deep fry (yes, DEEP FRY) a nice fillet of fish. I prefer catfish, flounder or tilapia. When it cools down a bit, I take a l wedge of lemon and squeeze it over the fish. Then I make a sweet and hot ketchup/pepper/lemon/sugar sauce, slather my fish, and sandwich it between the butter flap fold!!! HOLY!! Now that I know how to make butter flaps (many thanks to you and Cynthia) I will be making my fish sandwiches more often!

Hey, Lubos from slovakcooking.com here. I am sort of like you. I have yet also to try Caribbean food but I know Cynthia’s blog. She makes it sound so delicious, makes you wanna hop on a plane and travel there. Which would be especially great now, given how cold it is here on the east coast.

Feride, these are adorable! Look like Turkish pogaca, except butter stuffing. I can imagine the flavor butter adds to these beauties. Would love to have these at breakfast!

Being from Cuba, you’d think I’d have known about these, but sadly, no.
No matter. Any recipe that includes ‘butter’ in the title, automatically gets my approval. And I love how they’re folded like a crepe. Wonderful idea Fari!

Success! They were lighter and had a much more pleasant taste than I imagined. I was afraid mine would be heavy and greasy, but they turned out heavenly. Thank you!
