  • Hi: Thanks for the recipe. Is it 2 tablespoon of baking powder or 2 teaspoon?

  • @shuam01 For the filling 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon turmeric 2 cloves garlic 1 teaspoon ground roasted geera (cumin) 2 cups split peas (dhal) 1/4 of a scotch bonnet pepper (or any hot pepper you like) For the dough (actual roti) 3 cups all purpose flour pinch fast acting yeast 1/4 teaspoon salt 2 tablespoon baking powder water (see note below) * 5 tablespoon vegetable oil (for brushing the roti while it cooks)
see all

  • Hi Chris, thanks for all the recipes, please check out our page and let us know what you think, have a good day Chris

  • Thank u so much... my father is from Georgetown, Guyana. My grandmother used to make these for me... After she died, I lived in Canada my whole life, it was difficult to find places that make this type of roti. My mom is French so she does not know how. I will try to make this at home and let my son grow to love caribbean food as I do. He is only 22 months and already loves my curry. People in Nova Scotia, where I live now, have not even heard of it

  • My first time and it was so easy to make!!! Loved by everyone!!!

  • I always wondered how to get the peas in the middle of the roti.

  • Dude crave is an under statement!! :-)

  • Thank you for posting. I miss all of my favorite foods. There is no trini spots here so I make sure I invite people over so that they can learn about Caribbean culture and food. Thanks!

  • Chris you really kick ass!! I never had caribbean food untill you! I thank you so much for showing me theres more to food than what i thought! Please keep up the good work! I love your videos!.... Your the best!!!!!!!! : )
