Curried Mango – Trinidad
Green mangoes are used in this recipe and they take on the role of a vegetable side dish that complements meat or vegetarian meals.
Red Beans (Trinidad)
A typical Trinidadian side dish that is quick and easy to prepare for those busy week nights. You can’t mess this up it’s so easy. The measurements given are just guidelines, adjust to your preference.
Trinidad Corn Soup
Extremely popular at Carnival time. It can be bought piping hot from street vendors and is served at most carnival fêtes. West Indian corn is more starchy and less sweet than the North American variety but I don’t imagine that other varieties of corn would detract from the flavour of this dish. Goes a lot faster if done in a pressure coooker. For the dumplings refer to recipe#183964
Wonderful Curried Sweet Potato Soup
This IS a WONDERFUL SOUP. And look at the list, just a few ingredients! I came up with lots of GREAT ideas for the contest, but when I asked my friends what they liked best, they always mentioned this humble soup! How funny is that? The rum really makes a difference. It is added at the very end, so if you have kids at the table and you’re worried about it, just serve them first and add the rum later. You may want to leave it out altogether, but just let me tell you one more time that the RUM IS a LOVELY ADDITION. I use Patak’s curry paste which is available in Asian stores where I live. Madras is labelled as a hot paste and Korma as mild. I’ve also tried a Patak’s paste called HOT/TRES EPICE which I do NOT RECOMMEND.
