ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Kalamai (dessert)

Kalamai is a yummy dessert that originates from Hawaii! It's like a sweet, soft cornbread that's usually made with cornmeal, sugar, coconut milk, and other delicious ingredients.

First, you mix together the cornmeal, sugar, and salt in a bowl. Then, you add in coconut milk, water, and vanilla extract and mix it all together until it's smooth. Next, you heat up this mixture on the stove until it's thick and creamy, almost like pudding.

Once it's the right consistency, you pour it into a dish and let it cool down until it's firm. It's usually cut into squares and served as a snack or dessert! Some people like to sprinkle coconut flakes or other toppings on top of their kalamai for some extra flavor.

It's best enjoyed with a big smile on your face and made with love by your family or friends. Yum!
