Natasha is my foodie hero. She's so good she doesn't even need to sample the thing. No jail for me this year..Tks Tash...Trini cooking is the best, is the best is the best.
I have never made pastelle because I taught is was slaving hard work to make but it was so easy to make so i'm surly going to try this. My 9 year old son is all excited to help make also because he loves loves pastelle .
I really really like how you make your Trinidad 🇹🇹 Pastels y I cannot wait to try myself y Viva La Trinidad 🇹🇹 y Tequiero Mucho Mucho Amor 🥰 Desiree y Familia 🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹
It's that time of the year again. I make pastelles every year and I still need a refresher. This is one of the better recipe and technique that I have seen.
All yuh…. Yuh de best. Best Trini recipes out there without question. Every time I watch yuh, I feel closer to TnT. Can’t wait to get back, but till then… pastilles and parang for Christmas!!!
excellent. simply done no big fuss and mess. back in the day, it was ah big pot and wood fire in the back yard to boil the pastelles or ham lol for Christmas -
In Puerto Rico ower dough is complete different but filling is almost the same. We use roasted chopped pork shoulder then we mix it in stewed pork broth, ham, rasians, hot pepper, chickpeas, olives, tomato sauce (not paste), capers, sofríto (similar to green seasoning), annatto, thyme, and paprika. Some people add chopped potato but I like my potato grated in my dough.
I made a vegan lentil and bodi filling (adapting Natasha's lentil and mushroom recipe). However, we used this video to make the dough and assemble the pastelles, which were delicious. Thank you so much for these clear instructions.
@foodienation I am so excited not only for the holidays but all the videos like this where you'll showing us some if not all the Trini's Christmas recipes!!!!
I enjoyed looking at this video… great tips Natasha …. You gave me inspiration to prepare and cook my own pastelles this Christmas… Thank you very much 😊
I was smiling as if I was right there making it with you guys!! I’ll give it a try as I always thought I needed a press to make it. It ain’t Christmas without pastelles!! I can make dozens now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥳🥳🥳
Omg, that's y my pastels give so much trouble ,I used cornmeal, what d mug ah juice is this boy, never to old to learn eh foodie blessing eh, Omg, ah could laugh at mehself now🤦♀️🤦♀️🤣🤣🤣🤣
We are open to showcasing, and collaborating with all Trini RUclipsrs. As long as they're willing, and our schedules align -- it will happen. (We're all based in different countries/cities)
crissy sweet that would be nice to but some Trini ppl like having snakes in dey backyard.. plus y showcase Taste of Trini and Caribbean Pot, cause they low key copying them. And there were several times Taste of Trini and Caribbean Pot was in Trinidad, but like Foodie Nation only contacts is this 🐍.

Natasha : I’m going to let you do all the work Also Natasha : picks up each ingredient and put them in the pot lmao Natasha you look really pretty .. I’m I’ve of you faithful followed in your Chanel
I used corn flour and tried this and it did not come out good. My friend told me that corn flour is the wrong product and that I should use pre-cooked cornmeal. I'm going to try it again with the pre-cooked cornmeal.
Ladies that is what you call pastel making I know that way too it’s the best of the best you two together is a BOMB love 💕 it keep up the good 😌 work God Bless Thanks 🙏
You can use promasa corn flour and the press can be found in most groceries, and the leaves can be found in Massy stores, just helped y'all there or just wait to raid some family own either way compliments of the season!!!!!
Man she made that look so easy. What can you use if you can't get fig leaf? I want to try and make some this year instead of spending mo ey to order. Thank you for the info
I love Pastells for the 🎄 Christmas Holidays ..gr8 memories of My Mom she always bought them for the holidays thanks for the recipe will try making it. :)

Promasa cornflour is what we use in Trini, looks like cornmeal bt finer. Nt white corn flour that looks like corn starch.

Yes Sir, that it is. The Lamb idea is dope man. Can't wait to try it.
Thank you Foodie Nation and Natasha. I have always used corn meal and wondered why my pastels fall apart. Now I know to use flour.
What! You two make a great combination...its like The Avengers for Trini food!
Nice to see the corporation between all the Trini RUclipsrs helping each other out...The whole country should take a page from this!
This looks way easier to make than I had imagined pastelles to be. I'll have to try it.
I do fish, chicken, turkey, beef, shrimp, soya, it is limitless with you just have to stuff something.
Nice!
All yuh…. Yuh de best. Best Trini recipes out there without question. Every time I watch yuh, I feel closer to TnT. Can’t wait to get back, but till then… pastilles and parang for Christmas!!!
I don't eat beef but I've heard and made ground Turkey pastelle. It lash! 🙌🏽
DJ JEL Di Soca Analyst try Pork

excellent. simply done no big fuss and mess. back in the day, it was ah big pot and wood fire in the back yard to boil the pastelles or ham lol for Christmas -
So true
This is one of many Trini foods I miss, as I now live in Canada. Yum...
The pastel came out good well done Foodie Nation and Natasha, for your Christmas recipes 😋 😀 😊
Live in Baltimore. Follows Natasha for all my true Trini recipes. Thank you ladies. You are fun together ❤❤
I love the two youtube channels Foodie Nation and Trini cooking with Natasha keep up the good work guys 👍❤
I tried this recipe today. Of course, I compared with the one on "Trini Cooking with Natasha" and they're the same. It came out PERFECT!
I can't have Christmas without my pastel I love it so much
Anastasia Alexis how to make pastel
I am so happy and grateful for your recipes. I love ya'll. Fellow Trini 😊
Thank you Ladies! I love the split screen!
Hi Natasha I've been cooking at the age of 11 but like to follow your recipe.
Same
I love Trini beef pastelles. It's our holiday staple.
Both of you'll make a good team. Loved it
I just love the way the two are communicating on the show😊😊

I put coconut milk powder in my cornflour for flavour.

I enjoyed this video. Trini Pastelles brings back Happy Christmas memories in Trinidad 🇹🇹

I did the same,i use corn meal. Natasha girl you give me extra work for xmas now but i love it. Thanks
I used corn meal and it came out just great
Don't take her on. Cornflour will not work. She's just confusing you all.
Cornmeal is used. Just make sure it's a refined cornmeal like Promasa.
So what do u think promasa is??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 cornmeal alone 🤣 dont take u on because promasa is cornflour 🤨
@@nickielasampson4858 👏🤭
You both are incredible cooks you made me laugh cooking is fun
Their energy in the kitchen only add to their culinary prowess..Good stuff girls. Enjoyed you both.
Natasha is so smart I love to watch her cooking videos.
Aye i stopped eating meat but last year I tasted a fish pastelle from back home,hear nah!!!it was the boom 💥 😋👍🏽👌🏽
Nice, I also use a flat bottom pot to press down, easier than pressing out by hand.
There's other Trini you tubers also, it would be nice if you guys showcase them also. Taste of Trini and Caribbean Pot.
We are open to showcasing, and collaborating with all Trini RUclipsrs. As long as they're willing, and our schedules align -- it will happen. (We're all based in different countries/cities)
Caribbean pot lives in Canada and Taste of Trini is in Texas now. Maybe one day🙏🏽
completely agree!

Natasha is a boss with those folds👍🏾

I love your recipes natasha you're really good.
I love your cook Natasha
This is awesome
Man she made that look so easy. What can you use if you can't get fig leaf? I want to try and make some this year instead of spending mo ey to order. Thank you for the info
Use wax paper!
Same
Easy tip just put fig leave below and on top then use a pan to press down
Fantastic. Ah want some
I will certainly try. Great job
I love Pastells for the 🎄 Christmas Holidays ..gr8 memories of My Mom she always bought them for the holidays thanks for the recipe will try making it. :)

Lovely
Great looks good
Yes turkey n lamb pastels...always best to season meat while cooking as opposed to before. No lumps this was
Ladies add some sugar to the dough...it brings out the taste of the corn.
I love it. Will try this
I'm so excited to try these this year!! Thank you
Yes Turkey pastelle is real good , tuna pastelle, lentils, soya , beef is original, chicken
LOVELOVELOVELOVEPASELLES
Well done im thinking of doing mines for christmas👍
Nice going to try it/:))
Is there a substitute for fig leaf??? Live in us, can't find leaves.
You can use wax paper the same way or Just do it directly the foil
Yes
Pastells look sumptuous.
Just would like to add one thing . you can use corn meal . it doesn't get your pastelles grainy .
Natasha is d best❤❤❤
I am inspired to try making pastels again, i think i have more patience this time lol.
Do you make veggies and soy pastels
Yes my dear , you are doing a great job. Try not to wear armless in the kitchen while cooking. Thank you.
Instead of using my hands to press the dough I use a mararoni pie dish with a flat smooth bottom to get it flat 😌
Thank you ladies, great job. Seems easy. Now how much water do you place in the pot?
