I have so many memories as a young girl watching my dad (also from San Fernando) making his trademark kuchela. He passed away when I was 14. Thank you for your videos which keep my Trini side alive.

[@joanray6897]

I wish my Dad was still alive. He loved chilli recipes like this. I will make this and when I enjoy it with my meals I will think of him. Thank you for sharing.

[@shaheedkhan3595]

Hi Chris I have a tip for you I often watch your recipes and I really love making them I made the last one or I would say the first one in this recipe the only difference is I actually added salt let it sit overnight in the fridge and I squeezed the mango got a good amount of juice out of it then I put it in a pot on low heat and got any excess water out of it before I took it out and add my aunt sharp masala and salt to taste then I added some green seasoning which contain hot pepper Shadow Benny and garlic along with my vegetable oil enough oil so that I had coverage when I put it into the bottles I waited overnight for it to cool down properly then I get to the bottles this is my two time I'm making that same recipe and absolutely beautiful thanks so much for sharing with us keep up the good work my name is Jennifer Garrett and I am in Toronto Scarborough to be precise in Canada 🇹🇹 stay safe my friend keep smiling and keep sharing your beautiful recipes with us appreciate it so much thanks again 👍👌♥️❤️🙏🇹🇹

Thanks for sharing Chris. I used to buy one in a jar from noffrils some Jamaican brand, but it's kinda costly now plus u never know how long it have been on the shelf

[@darrenwarmington7037]

In order to dry the mango that is grated could you use a dehydrator?

[@sahierasd8237]

Hi how long can you keep it? We call this in surinam mango chutney, i made this with apples

[@athenarockett3088]

Thank you

[@ofcourseitsme5023]

Oh it is green mango time here! It's been way too dry and way too hot in SW Florida so this sounds really nice!

@@caribbeanpot Awesome! Looking forward to them

[@lisavcrawford]

Now that I see the process, I will not complain about the price again. I live in Barbados so I tend to buy rather than make. Fantastic job as usual.

[@caribbeanpot]

no Lisa.. make some now

[@ayodeler39]

I need to experiment wid de correc oils to use. Is coconut oil a good one to use with your recipe? My cousins used to send me jars from the ‘tourist duty free shelves’. I discovered that it was the sesame oil they used that gave me a reaction. So anything with sesame oil is a no no for me.

[@lylinbest948]

Goodmorning Chris, lovely receipe for one of my favorite all i need are aloo pies.Thanks for sharing, keep safe.

Do you have to put sugar?

[@raksha1940]

Very Nice.. but I make Mango juice with the juice. If you don't want the juice.. Let the liquid sit in the fridge..then you get the starch. which settles at the bottom.. which can be used in cooking..❤😊👍🏽

[@nsandcc2008]

Chris, I am curious as to why we put pepper sauce and kuchela in the sun? Why/

[@jeremynaraine]

Congratulation on 600,000 subscribers Chris. This looks good. 👍😋☺😊

[@caribbeanpot]

thx for the kind support

[@0711Mala]

Love it! Can you use mustard oil instead of veg oil?

[@skinnydee1886]

That's what you're supposed to used but if you can't get Mustard oil, you can use vegetable oil. I've always used Mustard oil.

[@brendamaharaj9463]

Very nice but i salt my mango first then dry and i keep the liquid and freeze it for when im making blended chutney ❤

[@amazinetennyson8577]

What is anchar massala?

[@estersooknanan9939]

I have memories of climbing through the bedroom window and spreading a white cloth on the galvanize over the shed and putting cut up green mango and grated to dry .

[@caribbeanpot]

the scent.. that stayed with me to this day yea

[@bluemoun]

Chris I want to make this but only have frozen bagged mango on hand...do u think I should give it a shot?

[@caribbeanpot]

I'd guess it may go soggy was thawed and not be easy to grate

[@bluemoun]

@@caribbeanpot thanks Chris. Looking for green mango in toronto in covid times 🕵️‍♀️

[@vrijmatipersaud1256]

Chris How are you Bro Love your cooking Very delish Anyway there is a special kind of OIL for that recipe its called MUSTARD OIL. You can only find that in the CARIBBEAN.

[@nsandcc2008]

i usually use mustard oil but then had a few complaints about the oil, so I try to mix both oils to dilute the taste.

[@ernestpile8665]

Rather than a kuchela or a green mango chutney, what is your take on a sweet and spicy mango chutney?

[@yvonnegoodgridge6693]

@caribbeanpot WHERE IS YOUR HOUSE/APT GARDEN YOUR HERB GARDEN WITH YOUR HOT PEPPERS, SHADOW BENNI, ETC RIGHT IN SIDE THE HOUSE

[@LISAWILLp]

How do I eat this

[@caribbeanpot]

as a side condiment to curry dishes

[@carleneclarke6286]

[@sahierasd8237]

With a good roti, or fried rice or a bara

MANGO JUICE DOWN THE DRAIN? Yah mad!!

[@patharnanansingh7874]

Why did you not use the mustard oil like we do in TT

[@krazytrinisteve]

I was wondering the same thing but what is in mustard oil. I can’t go out and get some mustard oil where I live in the us. Maybe I can make my own!

[@caribbeanpot]

read the others I replied to.. read up on mustard oil - then decide if you want to use it.

[@krazytrinisteve]

New studies show that mustard oil has no effect on the heart. The president in the US advocates for injections of Gramazone to ease all toxic effects. This is also being used in the US to treat COVID-19 and marisimus. So, Chris is wrong!

[@krazytrinisteve]

I also attribute mustard oil to the third leg that I drag on the rug.

[@mizzpoetrics]

@@krazytrinisteve Oh? Is that what he was saying? 😳 I'm surprised you were able to translate that gibberish OrangeMan was saying! 😂😂

[@debbiemaharaj6499]

so no mustard oil?

[@somethingspecial1415]

Some1 asked this question in a comment above-He stated that we should goggle mustard oil,because it is harmful for human consumption/our health.

[@allistercole]

Hey Chris why not collect the mango liquid and make green mango juice !!!

[@caribbeanpot]

green mango juice? is that a thing? That is TART yea.

[@allistercole]

@@caribbeanpot yeah I used to make it back home in St Lucia with sugar and some essence was always real nice

[@cnosnevets1]

Chris, I have been liking and following you for 2 years. Im upset that you put perfectly nutritious mango juice down the drain. Is there any way to put this in a recipe or juice?

[@brendamaharaj4912]

You can use the juice from the mango put some salt black pepper and some hot pepper good for a hangover.

[@whatrwedoing6968]

Ahhh gawd Chris boi,ah trying to behave MYSELF.buh with dis recipe ima add some MUSTARD OIL!

Save the juice please.

[@carleneclarke6286]

Celery has no right being in this recipe in Trinidad we would never put celery or cilantro as some ppl call it in this dish this is a misrepresentation of our tasty kuchela

[@caribbeanpot]

celery? As far as cilantro, I EXPLAINED - I don't have access to shadon beni (culantro). BTW.. recipes are a base to tailor and experiment to you OWN liking. I NEVER mentioned "traditional" Did I?

Use a wooden spoon

Ayyyy! Save the juice you squeeze out. too precious to waste. Otherwise, sooo good

[@youngboss8807]

Chris you're wasting the juice. You could have squeezed that in a bowl and make some nice mango juice later😒

[@caribbeanpot]

nah.. not for me. I don;t like sour juice with no flavor but tartness

DON'T CALL IT KUCHELA. It doesn't have mustard oil, NO NO NO. Vegetable oil is full of hexane. SHAME ON YOU
