    I was fortunate to grow up in south Trinidad, but living in the NYC for over 20yrs. I enjoy hearing your voice. Next time I come home sure enough fig tacari. And yes on Sunday its crab.

    I just finished making this Reshmi. It is absolutely delicious. I followed everything you did. I’m thankful for your videos of trini dishes. You are easy to understand and follow. I don’t live in Trinidad and my access to ingredients are limited but thanks to your substitution advice, I can achieve the trini taste of food I remember. Keep doing what you do cause you help lots of folks out there like myself.

    Your recipes are always the closest my in laws used to teach me when I came from Venezuela to live with them 36 years ago... ! To me it is the authentic trini food and it just bring such good memories... TY🤗

    I love callaloo and make it as well. I have never seen carrots added to it before. Also whenever I am using crab I always clip off the toes as well as the tip of the gundy. I usually put all my ingredients into the pot with a little hot water on a slow heat, leaving a whole pimento pepper to the top. When the ochroe seeds turn pink then I add the coconut milk followed by the golden ray butter and a hot green pepper (whole) on top which lights up the kitchen. Hot pepper and coconut milk always make a sweet clash. I leave that until coconut milk is dried down and now i swizzle. My callaloo normally comes out thick. Well I guess there can be more than one way of doing something and still achieve its goal. Thanks for the video anyway. I did enjoy the geera chicken recipe.

      Summers Lake sounds good. I usually clip the toes and gundy as well but these were just for flavor, I didn't eat them. I do that when I'm making curry crab. It's nice to hear different ways of making a dish, thanks for sharing ☺

    this is lovely i love this with anything stew as well. i have a really strange trick if you dont get the young leaves and dont have a lot of time to cook. seperate leaves from stems and wash put the in your food processor and chop finely. some baking powder can also be added to older leaves when cooking. same method as in the video. it will be ready in 15 mins.no blending needed.
