- Upar Gaar is most commonly referred to as Murtani or Pepper Choka. It is a blend of fire-roasted vegetables This can be eaten as a dish or a condiment. As a child growing up, my grandfather made this regularly. Murtani is meant to be extremely FIERY, but you can adjust the pepper to your preference. I usually buy this in Debe at the food sheds, but it's always better to make it at home.
No river lime is complete without making murtani on a fireside or chulha. (photo from www.indocaribbe...)
Recipe starts at 2:00
INGREDIENTS:
2 Tomatoes
2 small Baigan/Eggplant/Melongene/Aubergines
6-8 small Ochroes/Okra

2 heads of Garlic (20 cloves)
1 teaspoon of Lemon Juice
2 teaspoons of cooking Oil.
Salt (your preference)

I like choka anything, but roasted hot peppers... a whole new taste, and the thought of it is making me salivate like crazy {licks lips and slurps}
This looks mouth-watering. Can you add a roasted onion to this?
Wow this dish really lights me up, all the ingredients float my boat! I like those slim Asian brinjals/baigans too, and cooked this way they have such a delicious smoky taste. XXX hot pepper for me too!

I got the feeling this is Indian food not trini food you call it trini food but Is Not.
Ca na da boy Ca na da Haha, every day you learn something new my friend. This is definitely a Trinbagonian dish.
Quit trying to BS the world u is Indian NOT Trinidadian and u cooks Indian!
asshole an indian born in trinidad is what? gtfoh
Maybe learn your history she is an trini Indian her foreparent were from India. Maybe you don't know this but in Trinidad and Guyana has 32 to 40 % Indians in our population. We descended from ppl you came to the Caribbean as indentured laborers (slaves) ppl who were trafficated from India to the Caribbean by the British to work sugar plantations. The first Indians arrived in Trinidad on May 30th 1845. In the beginning of the video she did say this dish has Indian influence from our ancestors from India however tis a trini version because the Indians couldn't get the same ingredients that they could India so they used the ingredients they had in the caribean making this a fusion dish. She has always talked about her Indian heritage but keep in mind Indian is an ethnicity while her nationality is trinidadian. Indians are one of the biggest ethic group in Trinidad, Guyana, Suriname. If want to know more look up indo caribeans history.
