I grew up eating this in Trinidad 🇹🇹 My mom always cooked split peas cook up simply delicious
Same method I use except for the Coconut Milk but will try this way someday soon.
I love this.♥️❤️🌹 Yellow split peas, coconut milk, garlic, onion, thyme, as salt, tumeric, scotch bonnet/ wiri wire peppers and rice. Recently I found that adding smoked mackerel from Tesco is delicious. ❤️♥️🌹then fry some garlic and whole cumin seeds and throw on top after cooking. Yummy.
Gooooddddd stuffff! 😋😋😋
@@JennaGTheHijabiTT absolutely. This is what Guyanese would class as a soul food- it's simple warming and makes you feel satisfied.

Thank you
This is a perfect recipe I tried it but I add a little cumin (geera),with fry fish on top and it was delicious
What do yellow split pea taste like is there another veggie close to the taste?
Will I have to soak the split peas overnight or can I boil it right out the pack?
I followed yur method, n it came out perfect 😉
Awesome! Happy to hear that!
Is the rice boil already ?
Im gonna try it
Niceee! Different but nice! Hope you enjoy!
What my mom used to do was burn garlic and chunkay the kitchri
Really? Hmm I should try that next time
Thank you I am doing it now

Hi Jenna G,this dish was a favorite Saturday meal for my mom.Asme and my siblings didn't mind having some BunBun ON our platesLOL
lol! kitchri is sooo yummy!
Lol my grandfather used o love bun bun
Is it cooked rice we using ?
Making this today
Hope you enjoyed it!
If ur dhal over boil how do u save this recipe from disaster? Asking for a friend :P
I used the over-boiled dhal by adding it in after the rice was halfway boiled and it turned out great!
I am going to make this roday
Hope you enjoy!!
I love mixed rice dishes, this one in particular. However every time I make it comes out not grainy but the other form😩. Going to follow the exact steps to see if I get it like yours
The amount of liquid added will determine how grainy it comes out… don’t add a lot at a time
I make my kitchri different....but it still delicious 🙂
oooo sounds interesting!....would love to hear your method :D
How do you make your kitchri bash? I now going to try making it for the first time.
Please let the rice and seasoning saute for a while, then put in the peas, saute for a few seconds then put the water and coconut milk, .and mix properly, then cover and put the fire very very slow...do not stir constantly because that makes the dish to soggy. Its supposed to be light, fluffy and grainy..
Thanks for sharing... believe it or not thought I don’t like grainy rice at all... so for me this has to be ‘wet’ rather than grainy
Can you use green split peas?
I honestly have never used it but It should be ok... you can maybe add some saffron powder for the color
you did not mention if the rice is cook before you add it to the pot ?
No it isn’t cooked before... it’s cooked with the split peas in the coconut milk and other ingredients.
As simple as it is, I keep forgetting the method.
Jenna can you show us your vresion with the saltfish!!
Ill definitely add that to my list of videos to be posted soon
Thanks i made it and it reminded me of my younger days when meat was not a full
Meat was not a staple .I made this dish friday and my brother in law made roasted tomato choka man it was delicious .Thanks for showing this dish waiting for the saltfish version!!!!
Oooo with the tomato choka sounds so delicious!
Thank you Jenna look forward to those videos !!
She sweet
Its NOT safran powder thats turmeric powder / or haldi powder or kurkuma . Safran is a flower string. Am going to make this today. Thank u
In Trinidad they call turmeric safron
We call it saffron in trinidad
I grew up eating this until I couldn’t stand it as an adult.So one day I didn’t know what to cook and I made this and wouldn’t you know it, my family fell in love with it. Hear nah I cringed when they said that. However, it goes well with some roast tomato choka
😂😂 I hear ya! And yes it does go well with the tomato Choka
U didnt say if the rice was boil
no it wasn't boiled before
No bahgee???
Na
I do not want to sound intrusive but show us more vegan dishes and a coe heel soup please
Will try to include some more vegan recipes. Unfortunately I won’t be doing any cow heel soup since I don’t eat it... I used to but had a bad experience when I was a kid and never ate it since that
Trinidad I never eat this , is Guyanese who I know be making this and coconut chokea .
Reallyyy! I love that combo 😋😋
Made this all the time in Trini, with the addition of okra.
Guyanese also put channa in it too I think. It does taste good.
Really? Didn’t know that one… I might try it sometime!
Sorry that dish don't have coconut
Please I wish you can call turmeric powder or Hardee /haldi powder by its correct name.. Saffron and saffron powder is a whole other thing... Especially when we have videos open to the international community... Just a suggestion
Barbara Shyama Lee Chong thanks for the feedback!
Different parts of the world has different names for the same thing! This is Trinidadian cooking and it’s an ingredient that was passed down by that name. No need to nit pick the video ingredient here with your negative comment, trying to sound smart. Since you know the spices correct name, please link us with your video since you have time to comment. Caribbean people know what “saffron” is!
Also the name on the video is clearly labeled “Trinidad cooking/ Caribbean “ so with your international bs… keep it to your part off the world…
This is NOT how to make kitchri!🤦🏼♀️
