So funny about the car trip and concur 💕 it's impossible to stop at one...they are for me like cat nip to a 🐱. A favourite of all my travelling days.! Thank you...will be giving this version with tea a try ...if I recall don't think I got as far as putting it in 🍞 bread at home from the stall😊 the paper bag was always near empty!
Feels like there are so many possible variations of this that could be very enjoyable depending on what oil, herbs, spices, vegetable, ingredients are selected. Just watching a few different videos gave me plenty of ideas, got me wondering how it will taste like if I do this and that, I guess there's only one way to find out!
Mauritian 'Gato Dhal' undoubtedly traces its origins to Indian cuisine, specifically the dish known as 'Dhal Vada'. This transition of culinary tradition is a common occurrence given the historical and cultural connections between Mauritius and India. Here's a deeper dive into the relationship and distinctions between these two dishes: 1. **Origin and Migration**: - Indians, primarily from the state of Bihar, were transported to Mauritius as indentured laborers during the 19th and early 20th centuries by the British. They brought with them their rich culinary traditions, including the cherished Dhal Vada. - Over time, the traditional Indian recipe adapted to the local ingredients and taste preferences of Mauritius, leading to the birth of 'Gato Dhal'. 2. **Ingredient Variations**: - While both dishes mainly utilize lentils (dhal) as the core ingredient, the types of lentils and the ratio of ingredients might vary. For instance, Dhal Vada often employs urad dal or chana dal, whereas Gato Dhal might utilize yellow split peas. - Additionally, the spices and herbs used may differ to reflect the local palate. 3. **Preparation and Serving**: - Both Dhal Vada and Gato Dhal are deep-fried lentil fritters, but the precise methods of preparation and serving might have minor differences, reflecting the blend of cultures in Mauritius. - Gato Dhal might be served with chutneys and pickles that have a unique Mauritian twist, while Dhal Vada is typically served with Indian chutneys. 4. **Cultural Significance**: - Both dishes hold cultural significance in their respective regions. They are often prepared for festivities, family gatherings, and as street food staples, providing a link to heritage and community. 5. **Evolution Over Time**: - As with many traditional dishes, both Gato Dhal and Dhal Vada have likely witnessed numerous variations and evolutions over time, reflecting the changing tastes and influences of their respective regions. This culinary journey from Dhal Vada to Gato Dhal is a beautiful testament to how food can transcend borders and become integral to the cultural fabric of different societies, while also evolving to reflect the unique tastes and preferences of each community.
Hi suis une mauricienne I lived in Leduc AB. want to know if you can make some gateau piment and dholl puree for me and you tell me the price I like so much is my favorite
@@ShariqsCookingAdventures If I ever experimented with Gâteau Piment (yellow split peas), I would add some of the herbs & spices from its Falafel (chickpeas) cousin. But if my knowledge of Mauritian cuisine is correct, the fundamental rule is *KISS* ("Keep It Simple Stupid"). So mucking about with the Gâteau Piment recipe should result in failure.
@@Ash_G Being a mauritian, you just put coriander, spring onions, cumin powder,salt and chilli. that's all. some people vary it with onions, curry leaves, cumin seeds instead of the powder. but typically it just what i've stated at the beginning
@@losyu09 Am sorry but remove the "being a Mauritian" part. This has no bearing on this recipe until you have been to every home where "gateaux piment" is made, wrote down their recipe and derived an "average" from them. Only this scientifically created "aggregate list" of ingredients can be called Mauritian.
@@Ash_G like dude did you even read what i've written? you are gonna take my mauritian passport off me or what?. you know what typically means? and some people varies? If you know more about Mauritius than me then keep your opinions to yourself. i was just trying to inform. anyway. PATHETIC

I agree that they can all be very similar and different at the same time. But they are all tasty.
Bien bon gato pima
It is a good recipe indeed
Hi suis une mauricienne I lived in Leduc AB. want to know if you can make some gateau piment and dholl puree for me and you tell me the price I like so much is my favorite
I'm sorry but I don't make any for orders,I cook for my own pleasure. But if I'm cooking close to you next time,I wouldn't mind inviting you over
Thank you 🙏🏻👍😋💖🇲🇴
Thank you too
Taste with chatini cotomili or peanut chutni with tomatoes...
I totally agree with you.
Actually adding water cress or " cresson" in french gives them a better taste...
It's just an old grandma recipe that I found trickling through the family.
Cathedrale is actually l'egilse Lourdes a Rosehill.
thank you so much. But this is what i always refer to it as, it is more common for people to know, without meaning any disrespect to anyone of course.
I put some turmeric powder, for a better colour and better taste....
You can definitely tweak the recipe to your liking. This is how we usually come up with new recipes ideas
