MAIS MOULEN

Mayi Moulen is a traditional Haitian dish made from finely ground cornmeal, similar to polenta or grits, but with a uniquely Haitian twist. Cooked slowly with garlic, onions, and often flavored with herbs and a hint of heat from Scotch bonnet pepper, it results in a creamy, hearty texture. Mayi Moulen is frequently served with beans (sòs pwa), avocado, or sautéed vegetables, and sometimes topped with fish or meat. It’s a simple yet deeply satisfying dish that reflects the soul of Haitian home cooking.
