    After exploring the northern and central parts of Trinidad for the past few days, my friend and I headed to the southern part of the island to meet a woman known as the queen of chulha on Trinidad!
    My afternoon with Jason and Candice began in Siparia at Aunty Doll Chulha ke Ranni. Chulha is an earthen clay stove that’s fueled by wood, which flavors the food you cook over it-bread, curries, and more!

    The house was surrounded by bush. The woman here, Aunty Doll, cooks using a chulha, and she sells them. Because the chulha is made of mud, it conducts heat very well.
    They also put a tawa atop the clulha. I met Aunty Doll and watched her and the other women make a coconut bake, green mango curry, dal roti hops bread, baked chicken, curry duck, baigan choka, chulha curry chicken, pholourie, and more.
    Doll served me some pholourie with pommecythere. They were amazing together. I loved the soft texture.
    Next was the saheena, or spinach fritter, which she split and added pommecythere on top. The pommecythere is a fruit chutney with garlic added. It’s so good!
    They even make a pholourie curry called kurhi, which is super dense! The pholourie is made with split peas and absorbs the liquid. Her homemade hops bread looked like fluffy little pillows!
    Then, she mixed up some dough and water to make dal puri. I learned that Doll has seven children!
    The mango curry looked amazing. Then, I tried her fresh hops bread with cheese inside. Next, I got to see all of the chulhas she’s made, and one of the girls there ground up some chilies, coconut, and salt into a paste.
    Then, I tried the sada roti with the roasted coconut chutney, which was nearly black. It was smoky and had a tiny kick. It was really nice!
    Next, she took the ham out of the oven. It smelled amazing! Then, Doll patted and rolled out some dal puri and cooked them on the tawa. Then, she put it underneath so it puffs up and gets even crispier!
    Next, she pulled out a baked chicken pie with macaroni and melted cheese on top. Then, they gave me some pepper roti. It reminded me of some Greek breads I’d had.
    It contains pepper, garlic, onion, carrots, and cheese, and wasn’t too spicy. I loved the layers on it!
    Then, it was time to finally eat! We had curried chataigne (jackfruit), chana and aloo, kurhi (pholourie curry), murtani (eggplant, onion & tomato curry), chalta anchar (a spicy, condiment made from elephant apple), pommecythere chutney, curried saheena, bhaji (spinach with coconut cream), roasted coconut chutney, mother-in-law (a spicy pepper chutney), pepper roti, dal puri, curried mango, and Trinidad sweet rice (rice pudding).
    We ate it all on a banana leaf like a sadhya in Kerala! We had 13 different items! The dal puri was flaky, and I loved it with the kurkhi. The curried multani was smoky and peppery, as was the curried mango.
    I adored the curried saheena, which was like a thick, dense bread. The curried chataigne was my favorite so far. The pumpkin chouka was like pumpkin pudding, and the bhaji was like a creamy, smoky spinach dip.
    The mother in law wasn’t too hot, and the pommecythere was great. I also loved the cardamom and cinnamon in the sweet rice!
    Round 2 consisted of a juicy honey smoked pork, the fluffy coconut bake, spicy roasted curry duck, meaty common foul, curried stewed chicken (which almost reminded me of jerk chicken), juicy and smoky chulha baked chicken, pungent and fatty jeera pork, and crispy baked macaroni pie with chicken.
    What an incredible meal and experience!

      Indians mostly from Bihar were brought to Trinidad 177 years ago, as indentured laborers by the British during colonization.They were also from other places in India in smaller numbers. Not only to Trinidad but other Caribbean countries, Fiji, South Africa, Mauritius.. You can do more research on your own so that you learn, who knows maybe some of your family maybe living in the Caribbean.
      There are many recent immigrants from India living in Trinidad, they do fit right in. You are correct.

      Indo-Trini cuisine has influences of Bengal cuisine. Spices like the 5 phoran used in Trini Curry powder, dalpuri, baigan chokha from UP/Bihar. In Bengal you have pitai roti which is Bussupshut in Trinidad. These are just some of the similarities I notice.

As we become wiser and mature, we learn to appreciate our "ole time days" of cooking and living and we yearn and miss our past and heritage. So glad we can see it here in real-time.
