Jamaican Festival Fried Dumplings

We had these in jamaica and they were served with spicy foods (to cool them down). my son wanted them for breakfast since they are slightly sweet. we loved them. i found this recipe at jamaicans.com and made it with a spicy jamaican jerk meatloaf recipe. you tone down the sweetness by cutting down on the sugar.
