Bara (Flatbread, Bhatura):
This amount yields 35-40 baras depending on the size you make them.
• 4 cups of All-Purpose Flour
- 2 tsps salt
• 1 teaspoon of INSTANT/RAPID RISE Yeast
• 2 teaspoons of Sugar
• 1/4 teaspoon of Turmeric
• 2 ½- 3 cups of Lukewarm Water (must be warm for the yeast to work)
The amount of water needed varies based on the humidity of the environment.
• 2 tablespoons of Oil + more for frying.
*Always store bara dough in a warm place (oven, microwave, kitchen counter etc.)
Channa (Chole, Garbanzo Beans, Gram, Chickpeas):
• 3 cups of Dried Channa (Kabuli) +, 1/2 cup of Yellow Split Peas soaked in 5 cups of water and 2 teaspoons of baking soda
• 1 ½ teaspoons of Baking Soda (initial boil)
• 1 teaspoon Baking Soda + ½ cup of Green Seasoning + ½ teaspoon Turmeric + 1 ½ teaspoon Roasted Ground Geera (Cumin) + Salt
Pressure cook soaked channa in 4 cups of water for 20 minutes or 50 minutes if it wasn’t soaked.
After it is pressure cooked and the liquid dries out, add 3 cups more water.
* Baking soda tenderizes the channa, melts the skin and it also gives the channa that distinct doubles flavor. That’s the reason for adding it in layers.
Wrap baras in paper towel or tea towel and foil and store in a freezer bag or airtight container in the fridge. Reheat in a wet/damp paper towel
Reheat baras in the oven also. Wrap tightly in foil and place in the oven at 350F for 10-12 mins.

Gurllllllllllllllllllllll! You kill it EVERY SINGLE TIME!!!!!!!! I loveeeeeeeeee watching you cook!! You should have been a chef! You cook with so much love in your food and for your culture. There are many Trinidadian people on social media cooking,but your food is so tasty(I’ve made a couple of your dishes,and I don’t cook without that green seasoning!) and you put your whole heart in your cooking, and sharing in your memories of watching your mom and other family members cook. I think that’s what makes you so good and sets you apart from the rest. Keep doing what you’re doing, and I love seeing you with your family!!Stay Healthy and Blessed!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾

[@2toosexE]

Listen I follow no one else her recipes never fail me

[@TasteofTrini]

You're so sweet! Thanks for the kind words! I am passionate about food, cooking and culture ❤🙏🏽

[@RannarOsmita]

Wow i never knew Trinidad had so much Indian flavors and influence in its food...... Thanks for sharing

[@MealtimeWithDideeOfficial]

Yes 👌

[@Jenvlogs404]

It’s the majority

[@marilynr409]

What are you speaking about? There is so much Indian people that lives in Trinidad. We kept our culture we kept our food.

[@RannarOsmita]

@@marilynr409 I meant no disrespect i was fascinated and surprised to know how our Indian culture flourished in other countries❤❤

[@sunandasengupta8113]

@@marilynr409 wow! Chana Bhature! So Trinidad has lots of Indian origin population. Great. And I loved the presenter's accent.

[@esogod3326]

The internet makes the wrong people popular man. Some chefs would charge for recipes like this. Your recipes and videos are always top tier, and every single recipe I try from you is spot on. Keep up the great work R! Always stay true to your culture. These other online Trini "chefs" eh want nothing with you🤜🤜🎖

[@TasteofTrini]

I appreciate that! My goal is not to be popular but just to share my passion for food & culture and to preserve the traditional recipes I grew up with 🙏🏽

[@lillybelle5572]

I don't care what anyone says This is 'The' Best Doubles recipe on you tube/social media. Salivate every time you post your doubles pic/videos.

[@rajeshboysie861]

Thank you for not currying the channa that most doubles men do and spoil the entire idea. Love it. Looks delicious.

[@who511]

@@rajeshboysie861 good point you know...I never really thought of it... Doubles taste is not about curry....maybe people confuse the color of the channa..but I was never really sure how the traditional recipe was ..
