I am a Guyanese we all eat and enjoy Bulanger, this food is a healthy meal, especially when it is cooked with beef and chicken. It is very popular in the Country.

Older bajans call it volangere. Where did that name come from?... an alternative to balanjay perhaps? Really interesting.
I like balanjay with curry beef and roti. It's delicious π
I concur - Grenadians know this vegetable as balanjay. It's just part of our colourful expression of Self to put our own spin on any and everything we choose- no apologies necessary π€·πΎββοΈ
