How To Make Curry Chataigne | Foodie Nation x Dev

In this week’s episode, Kez learns how to prepare Curry Chataigne:
INGREDIENTS
3-4 tbsp coconut oil
1 medium onion chopped
½ tsp methi or fenugreek seeds
3 pimento peppers, chopped
1 medium scotch bonnet pepper, chopped
2 tbsp minced garlic
2.5 tbsp green seasoning
2 tbsp curry powder
½ tsp anchar masala
½ tsp roasted geera powder
1/2 cup water to cook curry
4-5 small chataigne
2 cups coconut milk
1/2 tsp salt
Water
METHOD
Heat the oil and when it starts to smoke, add in the methi. Let this fry for about 3 minutes, until the seeds gets dark brown.
Add in onion, pimento and scotch bonnet. Saute for 1-2 minutes.
Add in garlic, saute for 45 seconds.
Add in curry powder, anchar masala and geera. Fry this for 45 seconds.
Add in the green seasoning, mix well for 30 seconds.
Add in ½ cup of water, mix and let it bubble.
Fry the mixture until the oil separates and floats to the top.
Add in all the chataigne, mix and thoroughly incorporate all the curry in the chataigne. Cook for about 5-7 minutes.
Add in salt, and then the coconut milk, mix again.
Add in enough water so that the chataigne is almost covered.
Lower heat and simmer for 1 hour, keep on tasting for salt and the right soft texture. Serve hot!

I'm from Dominica and we call it Breadnut. I never even knew that the petals were edible. 😲 We usually let the fruit fall off the tree and when it turns brown and starts to rot, we collect it, discard the rotted petals/flesh and skin, and remove the seeds. We then wash and boil the seeds in salt water. When it's boiled, we de-shell the seeds and eat the nut inside the seed aka the breadnut.

[@ladyantoine9652]

We do that also 😀

[@lifeisablessing247]

I never knew this much work went into making this dish; would definitely appreciate it more when someone makes it for me.

[@chabby108]

I really appreciate the method you displayed in making curry chatinee. Many Thank.

[@lisamarcano3585]

Thank you for this step by step guide on how to clean and cook one of my favorite dishes , curry chataigne...love it.

[@maniramdipchan3684]

OMG.... You all nailed it.. I am hungry.. Anyway pro tip... My God father is old school he heard me saying some time ago that I don't like chatagne seeds in curry chatagne. He said to prepare the chatagne just how you all did and boil the seeds separately. Blend the boiled seeds and add it to the curry chatagne instead of the coconut milk and taste the difference. He said that if you want you can add coconut milk also for a more creamy texture.

[@camilledwarika8207]

Also you have to Sometimes scrape the seeds ...nice way showing the method to clean and cook

[@rosedookie2760]

That's a beautiful fresh and the finish looks absolutely delicious. In Guyana it's called Katahar Ka-ta-har, and especially for prayers and weddings, tons of it is prepared by many women sitting together, patiently cleaning and preparing dozens of them. Love the video, thanks for sharing be safe

[@juliealexis8510]

Finally 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👍👍👍😁😁😁😁 , guys I must mentioned there are a lot of people are now learning to cook most people show how to make a dish , but they don't say what will accompany the dishes that are prepared , love how chef showed the roti can accompany the chatine , so guys keep it that way you'll will get more subscribers 👌👌👌👌🙏🙏 continue to keep up the good work .

[@seygra20]

First time seeing what chataigne looks like and how to clean it. Yummy!

[@karminiparsan9256]

What a beautiful perfect green chataigne!!! Does Dev have a tree?? Only a very fresh chataigne would look so pretty. Great finished dish👌👌 ..so now people you can understand why you don't get served unending chataigne to eat...plenty work😄😄

[@carlaclement4229]

[@devongannes7767]

[@alexcianelson]

Can you curry the seeds too?

[@3Muchlove]

Noooo you have to cook ALL the seeds, I love the seeds with the flesh. My absolute favourite dish. Another great video! Thank you.

[@janiceinFL]

I live in Florida...years ago I dated a Trini and I always looked forward to Diwali because his friend's wife cooked curry chataigne and I fell in love! Now you've shown me the how, but I cannot find breadnut ANYWHERE!!!!!!

[@annsalinabaksh8496]

Dev and Kezzianne, please show how to prepare shrimp stuffed kalounji/carailli.

[@jackiehumphery2445]

Love his Sanford and son shirt

[@lylinbest948]

Good day Chef and Kezziann, this episode is so informative. I always wanted to see chataigne cooked from peeling and finished product. Thank you, i haven't had this for years. Thanks again for sharing be safe.

[@medjayalbaobab2003]

In Martinique where I'm from we only eat the seeds however we gotta wait till the pods are extremely ripped and soft to the touch damn near rotten inside at this point the flesh will be way less sticky but hella gooey and it smells phony as well but it's manageable I'm just wanted you to know that so you guys have a heads up just in case you wanna try some you might wanna peel that bad boy outside the house or your wife gonna be mad bad at you bro😂 Once the seeds are harvested we usually either discard the flesh and peel in the compost bin or feed it to our livestock but most people from Martinique will throw it away all together That's why I'm pleasantly surprised by this Trinidadian recipe 🤔You guys poked my curiosity on this one I'll definitely give it a shot soon Good stuff keep it up with the good work fam😉👌🏾❤...

[@garym8764]

Great recipe, 100% spot on, better than the other Sada roti 🤡 who don't know how to cook. Tip: My mother prepare the night before and soak in water so it doesn't discolour.

[@shardawhittome6859]

In Guyana we call it katahar

[@hummingbirdee9389]

Chataigne or Chestnut or breadnut

[@taariqali5031]

Kalahar or Jack fruit

[@xoxogossipgirl133]

Dev u have to tell chef jeremy that. The man made a wuk belly curry what day

[@karminiparsan9256]

What Dev??? Only half of the seeds to use??? No no I want ALL the seeds. I also spread a large piece of brown paper to clean the chataigne...too much mess to clean up afterwards

[@sheriffabasdeo969]

So agreed,half the seed is equal to one third of the chataigne is going to waste,why Kezzi sharing with him, LOL 🤣😂🤣

[@mollyb249]

[@Outlawkazuma01]

As a St. Lucian I'm confused watching this video lol

[@garym8764]

Clearly you all don't have a large enough Indo-caribbean population in St. Lucia to not be confused by it.

[@xoxogossipgirl133]
