While I was releasing my Guyana travel series, a Guyanese chef named Sandy reached out to me and invited me to her home in the Florida Keys for a full Guyanese food feast! We’d be having pepperpot, egg balls, baiganee, pholourie and more in her backyard and her kitchen!
She started off by making the pholourie, which are little split pea fritters. I tried one-they were really tasty! She also had lots of peppers and had made some chayote achar, mango sauce, and a spicy pepper sauce. They were all exceållent with the pholourie!

The pholurie was crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, and the pepper sauce made my tongue numb! I loved the sweetness and chunkiness of the chayote achar, and the mango was sweet!
She also had some bhaji leaves and mixed them into the remaining pholourie batter and fried them. Then, we headed into the kitchen, where her son had made some fluffy plait bread and some moonshine, which is 60% alcohol! Sandy was also making pepperpot in there and had some El Dorado rum waiting for us!
Sandy added some fresh thyme and hot peppers into the pepperpot, and then she grabbed a fresh coconut and cut it open so I could drink the coconut water. It was so filling! Then I tried my hand at cutting one open.The meat inside was like a nice, thick jelly!
Back inside, we went with the 15-year-old aged El Dorado rum with a bit of coconut water. It’s an amazing combination and the rum is so smooth! Next was the moonshine, which was surprisingly smooth.
Next was the plait bread with pepperpot. She’d made two types of plait bread. One of them contained coconut milk and bits of hot peppers!
For the pepperpot, Sandy used oxtail, beef, goat, and pork. I could wait to dive into it! It had a bit of sweetness and tanginess, and the meat had a bit of that gelatinous feel I love. The cassareep, allspice, and cinnamon were also fantastic. It fell apart in my mouth!
Ourside, we had carambola (starfruit) preserved with rum, wine, and brandy. It was a rich, caramelized starfruit! I also peeled and tried some moringa seeds before she showed me her green seasoning. Then, we cooked a goat curry in the backyard in a 75-year-old Dutch oven pot! It makes the meat super tender!
Then, in the kitchen, we made some roti, which is also called buss up shut. Then, I tried some dragonfruit before she started building some shrimp curry and crab curry. Everything smelled amazing! The shrimp curry was phenomenal!
Finally, she began cooking the roti. I rolled one out and put it on the grill and then smashed it with my hands to make it flaky and layered. Then, we fried some egg balls and made conch pholourie, and baiganee with eggplant! Her son also made a corn pone with coconut and dragonfruit!
Then, finally, it was time to eat! The dry roast shrimp curry blew my mind, and the conch pholourie with the chayote achar was unbelievable. The goat curry was like butter and was so tender. I loved the potatoes in it! And I couldn’t get over the amazing pepperpot!
Then, I dove into the crab curry by breaking the legs and body and sucking out all the meat. It was messy and dirty but so tasty and worth all the trouble! It was my top dish of the day so far!
The egg balls contained quail eggs and was unreal with the mango souse. But the baiganee with chayote achar blew me away! Then, I tried an amazing dessert called sirnee!
The roti with goat curry was heavenly

She copies the Indian TRINI’s that why 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🏆
Guyanese people are sooo friendly and welcoming 🥰
Thank you 😊 enjoy your week.
Really? Are you living under a rock? Or have you eaten too much pepper-pot that this woman made?
Oh my goodness her energy and skill are impressive. Her love of cooking makes it seem effortless. ❤ and her flourishing backyard 😅
I love how she’s excited watching you try her food cause I am like that when people enjoy my food.❤
I am the same way. Thank you foe the support
David having more fun here. He was a bit more serious in Guyana. But his fun personality came out here in Sandy's backyard kitchen. Love it
Thank you Sandy 😊 for your love ❤️
Yes ,when he lick his fingers after rubbing it on the wooden spoon🥰
Sandy is not only beautiful and entertaining but she is so knowledgeable ...gave so much info on the coconut shell. All her foods looked so delicious being cooked on the wooden fire. Everything looked awesome...her home..the scenery As always this was another awesome video to look at. Thanks David and stay safe.
@Malissa K good morning and enjoy the rest of your week.
Good morning. How is your week 😊 Thank you for the encouragement and the love you share. 😍 stay connected and sending hugs 🫂
@Missy thank you love ❤️ really enjoyed Trinidad 🇹🇹
Hiya david im guyanese from england 🇬🇧 so happy to see you indulge in our food.love you.xx
Sandy seems so lovely. Bless her 🙃🙂
Thank you 😊 blessings to you also.
While making roti , when you put oil and than sprinkle flour before rolling becaus flour will ensure the layers are separated.
Thank you Anil for the advice 🙏 ☺️
Ahh that makes sense
I don't know about anyone but I love Sandy's energy. If she had a cooking channel, that's where my TV would be all day...
Thank you and enjoy your day 💕
Thank you for the education. 🥰
She has a youtube channel where she often shows her cooking skills.
Check: Sandy's backyard kitchen
In Trinidad, Chayote is called Christophene. It is technically a fruit, but is eaten as a vegetable. I've never had it in anchar before... it looked real tasty.
I can totally see the Trini influence in Sandy's style of cooking, especially the ingredients and execution of the curry goat. This spread is a curry lover's dream! Hats off to Sandy. She has a radiant personality and excellent cooking skills. I truly enjoyed this episode!
Thanks for pointing out about Christophines. They are very popular in St Kitts, and surrounding islands! A non sweet fruit....But I have tasted them boiled "green", in a brown sugar liquid!
Thank you my friend for the encouragement and the love ❤️ you share. Happy Diwali and enjoy your week.
@@roly5573 big love to St Kitts 🇰🇳 enjoy your week
I AGREE ON EVERY DESCRIPTIONS YOU JUST GAVE.

Phulouri, Baingani it's a Bengali/ Bihari thing here in India. I guess most of the Indian migrants to the Caribbean were from the eastern side..

Enjoy your day
The lady she cooks some delicious food godbles her and you
Thank you for the ❤️
Sandy and her family are amazing. She has a unique and charming attitude and knows how to welcome her guest. Her hospitality skills are superb and she show cased her culture and ethnic origin in an extravagant way.
My First encounter with a Guyanese was not pleasant at that home. However, as I encounter many after a while I have lead to the realization to erase that unpleasant experienced. Sandy welcoming of the guest is genuine and authentic.
Thank you so much Tyrone for the encouragement, love and kindness you share. Stay connected and enjoy your day 💕

I would love to sit down and talk to you about all of your experiences that you had everywhere you've been, Maybe one day you can try my Native American traditional dishes. and you as well Sandy!! Cultures getting together to learn and know about each other, and enjoy spending time and creating peace and love, especially with food, are so important to me. It touches my heart. God bless you with everything you all do because this type of knowledge and love is what it's all about.
