I have never made pastelle because I taught is was slaving hard work to make but it was so easy to make so i'm surly going to try this. My 9 year old son is all excited to help make also because he loves loves pastelle .

[@trinisal1]

Thank you Foodie Nation and Natasha. I have always used corn meal and wondered why my pastels fall apart. Now I know to use flour.

[@chriswi8069]

It's that time of the year again. I make pastelles every year and I still need a refresher. This is one of the better recipe and technique that I have seen.

[@thelegendarylou6856]

Yes Sir, that it is. The Lamb idea is dope man. Can't wait to try it.

[@netsanetamare9725]

I made a vegan lentil and bodi filling (adapting Natasha's lentil and mushroom recipe). However, we used this video to make the dough and assemble the pastelles, which were delicious. Thank you so much for these clear instructions.

[@heathergittens3223]

I love Trini beef pastelles. It's our holiday staple.

[@horlicks3920]

So true

[@ninamckenzie72]

I enjoyed looking at this video… great tips Natasha …. You gave me inspiration to prepare and cook my own pastelles this Christmas… Thank you very much 😊

[@susangarraway6385]

Promasa cornflour is what we use in Trini, looks like cornmeal bt finer. Nt white corn flour that looks like corn starch.

[@rewatteefroimchuk8589]

Thank you Ladies! I love the split screen!

I enjoyed this video. Trini Pastelles brings back Happy Christmas memories in Trinidad 🇹🇹

[@spicebrooks869]

Happy friday ladies glad to see u both on my birthday 😍🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

[@jaredrios9575]

In Puerto Rico ower dough is complete different but filling is almost the same. We use roasted chopped pork shoulder then we mix it in stewed pork broth, ham, rasians, hot pepper, chickpeas, olives, tomato sauce (not paste), capers, sofríto (similar to green seasoning), annatto, thyme, and paprika. Some people add chopped potato but I like my potato grated in my dough.

[@patsybynoe3832]

I enjoyed making my pastels , thanks guys

[@I.Am.Liselle]

I was smiling as if I was right there making it with you guys!! I’ll give it a try as I always thought I needed a press to make it. It ain’t Christmas without pastelles!! I can make dozens now 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🥳🥳🥳

[@l.thernandez6748]

[@kellytrinidad3200]

[@like.seriouslyppl2296]

crissy sweet that would be nice to but some Trini ppl like having snakes in dey backyard.. plus y showcase Taste of Trini and Caribbean Pot, cause they low key copying them. And there were several times Taste of Trini and Caribbean Pot was in Trinidad, but like Foodie Nation only contacts is this 🐍.

[@jadea.2694]

Nice, I also use a flat bottom pot to press down, easier than pressing out by hand.

[@lilynelson1627]

Omg, that's y my pastels give so much trouble ,I used cornmeal, what d mug ah juice is this boy, never to old to learn eh foodie blessing eh, Omg, ah could laugh at mehself now🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@waheedaalli4661]

I did the same,i use corn meal. Natasha girl you give me extra work for xmas now but i love it. Thanks

[@cyruscyrus9029]

I used corn meal and it came out just great

[@62halee]

Don't take her on. Cornflour will not work. She's just confusing you all. Cornmeal is used. Just make sure it's a refined cornmeal like Promasa.

[@nickielasampson4858]

So what do u think promasa is??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 cornmeal alone 🤣 dont take u on because promasa is cornflour 🤨

You can use promasa corn flour and the press can be found in most groceries, and the leaves can be found in Massy stores, just helped y'all there or just wait to raid some family own either way compliments of the season!!!!!

I used corn flour and tried this and it did not come out good. My friend told me that corn flour is the wrong product and that I should use pre-cooked cornmeal. I'm going to try it again with the pre-cooked cornmeal.

[@keithgrant122]

Thank you ladies, great job. Seems easy. Now how much water do you place in the pot?

Nice tutoriol Natasha

Yes I have basically all. But still think Pork and Lamb are the best

I put coconut milk powder in my cornflour for flavour.

[@rachelmchin]

hi. If we dont have any fig or banana leaves, can we use foil?? What else can we use?

[@AstralPrincess]

Hi. If you don't have the fig leaves you can use parchment paper or foil but the parchment is better. The fig leaves is what adds that beautiful flavour we love.

[@rachelmchin]

@@AstralPrincess thank you. I will try parchment
