- Chef Jason teaches Kezzianne how to make 'Trinbagonian' Coo Coo:
*Yield: 12 Portions
INGREDIENTS
2 Tbsp Vegetable Oil
2 Tbsp Onions, minced
1 Tsp Garlic, minced
4 Pimento Peppers, minced
2 Tbsp Celery, minced
1 Tsp Chadon Beni/Culantro, minced
½ Tsp Fresh Thyme Leaves
¼ Cup Carrots, small diced
8 Ochros/Okras, medium diced
3 Cups Coconut Milk
1 ½ Cups Water (Vegetable Stock Optional)
¼ Tsp Paprika (Optional)
¼ Tsp Chili Powder (Optional)
1 ½ Cup Cornmeal
3 Tbsp Butter
1 ½ Tsp Salt
¾ Tsp Black Pepper
METHOD
1. Place a medium sauce pan over high heat.
2. Add vegetable oil and when heated, add the onions, garlic and pimentos. Sauté for 1 ½ minutes.
3. Add in the celery, chadon beni, thyme and carrots. Continue sautéing for an additional minute then add in the ochros and cook for 2 minutes more.
4. Pour in the coconut milk, water, paprika and chili powders. Reduce heat to medium, stir and bring to a simmer.
5. Once small bubbles break the surface of the milk, with a whisk in one hand and the bowl of cornmeal in the other, gently scatter the cornmeal onto the surface of the simmering milk in 3 portions and whisk vigorously to incorporate after each addition.
6. If cornmeal is getting too thick, immediately shift pot off the fire onto the side and switch over to a rubber spatula to mix the coo coo into a smooth consistency.
7. If still lumpy, add a ½ cup of warm water to the cornmeal and return to the heat for a little while as you work out the lumps to a porridge consistency.
8. Mix in the salt and black pepper and pour coo coo into a lightly buttered 9 x 13 inch pyrex dish. Smoothen the top of the coo coo with the spatula for a clean finish and let set up for 15 - 20 minutes until firm to the touch.
9. Once set, cut a portion and enjoy with Callaloo and Stewed Chicken for a great Trini meal.

Amazing how all of us descendants of African slaves here in the Americas have something like this--grits in the American South, mais molu in Haiti, Cuban fufu', Dominican mangu, cornmeal porridge in Jamaica, and so on. Food is the one thing they couldn't take from us, and thank God for that! This looks yummy!
That's right
This man can COOK,I have visited many cooking sites....HE IS THE BEST
@3: 21 in the French West Indies, it is called and spelled : chadon béni or chadron béni, meaning in English “blessed thistle” 😉
Love the segments, you guys make me smile from the soul, I'm a 'Foodie', home Chef and have been cooking since age 9! We all do, don't know anyone in the vast and diverse family that cyah cook! I've been privileged to live and work all over the Caribbean and as such, in Antigua and Barbuda, legend has it that if a young lady can't tunn ah ball ah funji, well, she's not likely to get married, I'm Antigua it is delicious and served with steamed or stewed fish and other local traditional sides, a treat for the soul--much like looking at 'Foodie Nation'. I've learned much from island to Island and there are so many different techniques to prepare dishes that we have grown up with. Travel, Cook, Experiment, Eat, With Family And Close Friends!
Happy Cooking Guys, You're The Best! Well done! Excellent Platform For All Foodies!
Live! Love! Laugh! Cook! Eat! With a smile!
Oh, I spell it like chef does, but with a hyphen: Chadon-Beni.
Very nice !

I love that this video was simple and straight to the point ! Followed this recipe and it came out AMAZING! Thanks so much!
Hi KezzieAnn and Chef Jason, thank you for teaching us to cook tasty dishes. You have taught me a different method of cooking - adding the seasonings separately, allowing each one to saute for a few minutes to release their flavors. I am excited to try this coo coo, it is soo colorful and looks delicious.
Made this today for the first time and it was awesomeeee! Followed the recipe step by step and everything came out great.

@@FoodieNation Guyana call okra same way as Trinidad
Allyuh need a camera over the pot. 😳
Coming soon. 😎
Yes thinking the same with the camera over the pot. Visual learner over here 😆
if no camera, we could just watch Kezzianne ...
Years ago I had a conversation with a Panamanian. He said he likes Coo Coo, I starting laughing historically. The reason I was laughing because as a little boy growing up on the Island of St. Croix my grandmother always asked me if I need to coo coo. That's when he went into details and explained what it's made of. So I said to him, we call it Fungi, everyone started laughing.
Yeah B.. VI people call it Fungi. We will have to remain silent as to what we call coo coo.
I’ve tried for years to make this dish and always failed this recipe was a no brainer and it finally came out awesome my husband was literally licking the pot after I transferred the coo coo to the Pyrex dish! Thank u guys!
Best recipe yet for coo coo.
11:09 pm and I just made this. Chef i never liked cou cou and I'm eating it now. Thank you.
I love you guys so much, everytime I'm unsure about a dish I always use you guys as a reference! Love the stale jokes from chef Jason and the sarcasm from Kez ❤🖤🤍 #MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFryer#MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFryer #MyFoodieAirFryer
We Jamaicans call it ‘Tun Cornmeal’...not my favorite but it does look yummy

Chef Jason and Chef KezzieAnn, u guys are the best. My coo coo was the bomb. I enjoy yr cooking . I only ask that u guys give the measurements for the ingredients for yr recipes. So we have an idea what we doing for the first time. Thank u guys
The recipe was very accurate 🎉❤
That came out really nice...
Wanted to make coo coo for lunch today and used this recipe. Let's just say there's no left overs! Yum

Chef Jason spelt it correct. Need to try this recipe soon.

My very old family member and friends and granny 108 years call it coo-coo in Barbados, love your food, I like okra coo-coo good memories... smooth and not lumpy.
I like wen men teach women to cook,my dad teach my mom,so am married now an my hubby an i teach each other,we work together helping each other in d kitchen..we make beautiful food..but were is d pumpkin i didn't see..love u guys blessings
I now learn how to make coocoo I will try it soon thanks
As a old Trini coo coo was put in a bowl and jug around until it came together in a ball.
Heyyy love all your recipes...very good vybz♥️ but I think you should use a different pot juz to see the consistency of everything you add into the dish..thank you!😊
Our making me hungry yummy
Tried it today. Turned out great! My hand hurts a lil from stirring tho lol
I love coo coo, turn corn 🌽 it so delicious.... strong food
I going an make dis!!
Staple to trini culture. Stewed red fish or some calaloo makes this dish! 🙌🙌🇹🇹
Love this vid. My mom would make a huge ball and then slice...always thought this was the traditional way or maybe it was just her touch... BTW, I spell it Shadon bene!!!!
I always thought they baked it
Wishing that you will give the exact measurement the of like sugar glour, baking powder
Chef did you bake the coo coo or did you put it into the fridge to settle
Chardon beni French for blessed thistle
Oh really
Oh so sorry, I actually just saw your ingredients and method. Nice, thank you.
Where
What were the measurements of everything that went into the recipe?
Coo Coo and stew fish is the BEST 😊😊
Love your twist with the paprika and chili! I'll definitely try that the next time I make coo coo
Hmm....my grandmother used to put it in a buttered bowl, let it cool for a little while, then roll it into a large ball, put it in the middle of the plate, and pour some fish sauce, fish and calalloo. My favorite of all time.
Love it 🇹🇹
Good morning how do you know when it's ready to come out the pot?
I love 💖💖💖💖👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🤗🤗🤗foodie nation🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
So I'm in the process of making this but can't figure when to put the 3Tbs of butter???
Wonderful video! Chadon Beni but in Trini yk it's bandanya😄😊😊
Do I use the celery leaves or the stems and the leaves
Fool proof recipe.. And soooo good 🇹🇹
Jason your right with the spelling it looks yummy
You all makeing me feel to eat
What cornmeal did you use?
No, no, no, in Barbados we don't call it Fungi that is criminal. Cou Cou and Flying fish is our national dish. Our Cou Cou is just Okra in the Cornmeal that is stirred and cooked until mellow. A Cou Cou stick is another impliment that you must have to get the lumps out. We grease a round shaped container with butter and unmould on to individual plates. It's not supposed to be dry, the Okra are what makes it smooth otherwise my Granny would not be happy.
One of Trinidad local dishes but could never perfect it. 🇹🇹....Trini to d bone!
My bajan granny rolled it ,into balls ,and added stew ,flying fish.........it taste better with stew fish.......
Oh my! Yuuuuuum!
I like it with stew fish as well or callaloo oil down
@@allysonkalicharan4224 you wanna know what ingredient she ( my granny ) used to roll the coo coo balls ,in?.
U go guys, alyuh looking good,😁😁😁😁
Defoe need to see in the pot whilst you are coo,ing so that we can see consistency of the cook. Love you guys...vibes is great xx
Thank you for helping me with the texture of my coo coo. I am eating it right now with calalloo, stew and fried fish.
I needed to see inside the pot, so you may consider a shallower pot, or cameras over the stove.
Fry Aloo wit Sada Roti pls? 😍
Can u use coconut milk in the packet?
Nice
Looks really yummy.
If I make plenty Coo Coo could I portion and freeze it?
Is this the amazing sweet corn coco?
It would be nice to see inside the pot.
I am sure I did not like this as a child in TnT, but I will follow your recipe. Like others have commented, it would have been nice to see inside the pot.....
It's better when u guys use the split screen so we see inside the pot other wise great job love watching ....
Can we have the ingridients with measures please.
We call it Cou cou in Barbados too
Good morning..if i dont have ochroes..will it still bind together
Not so much
Chadon Beni ! ... love Coo coo
Can you share the recipe'so that we get the measurement'thank you
Can u guys do paime.
My Mom used to make this for my Daddy and she used so much okra it was green!
Is this eaten hot, cold, or room temperature? Also, I understand it's a side dish, many comments are saying it accompanies fish stew, are there other proteins this would be paired with?
This is usually served hot with meat or fish stews, legumes. Something with a nice gravy and vegetables to complete the meal. If there are any left overs my mom would slice and fry it to make a crispy outside and dip in left over callalloo or anything with a gravy
Can I add smoked herring to it
Yuuuum yuuuuum
Small. Florida Ny
agree a camera over the pot.
Do have a video tutorial on coconut drops with ginger ( "tulum"-not sure about the spelling)
