JP's BLACK-EYE PEA CAKES
I had my first pea cake in the Virgin Islands in the eighties while on a Schwep's Ginger Ale TV
commercial with John Cleese and Paul Weiland Films out of London. A very old street vendor was
selling jerk chicken, pea cakes and ice cold Red Stripe Beer. I returned to Atlanta and immediately
began working on the recipe.
Yields: 60 3" pea cakes ( Don't be surprised if people eat 8 or more pea cakes each)
