I miss my Guyanese food. I visited my mom in Queens recently after 1.5 years, and she made some soup, chicken curry, cookup rice, and some other dishes for me - I was in heaven! I try to cook a few things here and there, but they never taste like mom's cooking.
I understand what you mean. That's why we should treasure every moment and never take anything for granted because you never know when you'll nolonger be able to have it as often or have it atall.
Curry chicken
Candy, when buying eggplants look at the bottom. If the bottom white part is round and has a slight indebted it is a male eggplants. They have less seeds and not as bitter. The female are usually elongated. They usually have more seed and a little more bitter
Ok got you. Will do next time.
Interesting .thanks
I wrote the same suggestion. But it was deleted.
You made an amazing baigan choka. This is my favorite breakfast dish, especially with the oil roti 🫓. 🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
Yes always a winner. Thank you for stopping by. 😊
Wow that Roti well done !!
I love Sada Roti with baigan choka!
I came here for this today. I loveee love how you keep it all the way Guyanese. You had me laughing. Yes I'm making this for the first time today, but I don't have time to clap roti so I'm buying it from this Trini man that's sells it in my area. Thanks Candy. 😊
Looks delicious! One of my favorites!
Thank you

Candy while watching your video I am saying this want hot oil roti but you read my mind, This is super super good, my favorite, I always do on stove top which is messy so I will try this method next time. Wish I can give you a million likes. Love it with dhal also. Placing an order right now this has me drooling I just wish I had it right now. Girl you sure know how to tease my appetite.
Hi Nia. I know what you mean lol I like this with dhal too I usually throw in some fine shrimp and its real good.

Wow girl, yum yum, you did great 👍🏽👍🏽😋😋 never tried it with hickory smoke. I roast mine in the oven on broil. I line a cookie sheet with foil wrap, no mess!
I know it’s not good to use foil wrap but I still do sometimes!
Yes I've tried the oven too. Next time must add the liquid smoke it's a game changer.
Looking so delicious

Looks nice for my vegan special
Yes that's right.
Where can I get the liquid smoke in Guyana 🇬🇾 🤔🤔
@@lezzymcgill7662 I'm not sure they have it there but check your most popular supermarkets.
We always make it without Bouillon and smoke liquid 😋😋😋 my favorite dish 🙏♥️🇺🇸🦅🇲🇺🦤
That looks delicious chef all it needs now is some oil roti
Lol you didn't watch the video huh. It has oil roti there. But thank you 😊
@@candythaglamcook not today lil busy lol
@@GT592 I understand. Have a great day ❤️
I do mine in the oven but I have never roasted the onion or oiled the baigan first. I am going to try your recipe the next time. Where can I find the liquid smoke?
I love your Guyanese accent at the end lol
😀😀 creolese
I wish you could open a restaurant by me 😋
😂😂 I wish too
Candy, you can also use a plastic water pitcher place the roti inside cover the top and shakeeee. 🌹
I know did all that before. I just Like trying new ways. Lol
Nice, looks delicious and go good with some oil roti. Lol 😂 👍👌🇬🇾🇬🇾🇬🇾
Thank you that's right.
Yummy but I need more pepper in mine 😁
Girl that thing was so hot my kids could not eat it lol.
Wow wow,am even short of words,the outcome was just authentic, delicious and mouthwatering 👌,will always watch your recipes 👍 here to show support
Thank you sis. 😊
Candy, how can you roast veges if you don't have a grill or open flame?.. what do suggest
Put them to broil in your oven.
Thanks
Hey candy where can I find that liquid smoke in Canada? Can I buy it on Amazon? And how do you tell the difference from a young and old eggplant when buying
Hi dear. Liquid smoke should be available in your local grocery store or check Amazon. I have no idea how to tell the age of the eggplant to he honest just chose the small looking ones I guess.
Look Delichus
Thank you
Can the balanjay be roast in a microwave?
That won't give it the roasted flavor. You can do it in the oven.
That is a teal seedy eggplant Candy. U have to use the young eggplant which has less or the softer seeds.
I know. I did explain all that in the video. Sometimes we don't know what kind of eggplant we get until we cut it open.
Guyanese don't tear up their roti like that. We clap it and leave it whole. Only Trinidadians do that and they call it buss-'up-shut.
I know that very well. I don't like to live in a box. I try different things. Haven't you notice this channel is about diversity and versatility? It's not only guyanese food I cook here. Also I did explain why I was doing the roti Like this. Because I'm not good at clapping so I find other ways to loosen the layers of the roti without having to clap it. I did mention i got this method from our trini brothers and sisters all that was explained in the video...Tried the bow/mug method before now I'm trying this. Thank you for stopping by. Have a blessed day.
Good morning
Good morning Reza
all right candy a maze me with your eggplant??? lets see... lol
Hi good evening
I roast my eggplant on my stove big mess but delish.
Yes that's how I did it too when I had a gas stove. I don't have one now so thos is a great substitute.
Put your roti in a mug and Shak it
I do sometimes. Just wanted to try this.
How about using your correct accent. Stay true to yourself
I'm speaking English with a guyanese accent, so that the entire world can understand what I'm conveying. If that don't seem true to myself for you, it's not my problem. You want raw creole guyanese accent, you won't get that here since I have international viewers that I cater to aswell, not just guyanese. There are many other channels that speak the language you prefer, I suggest you go spend you time over there.
Thank you
