Tobago's Crab and Dumplings

For recipes, visit www.ciaprochef.com/WCA
On Trinidad's sister Island Tobago, everyone's essential beach treat is crab and dumplings, and Miss Trim's is the place to indulge. Here's we find a plate of curried crab atop a large, flat, oblong dumpling that is there to sop up some of the curry. It's a perfect Creole dish: the curry is Indian, the crab comes from local waters, and the dense flour dumpling adds the African touch. Chef Debra Sardinha-Metivier demonstrates how to make crab and dumplings in her kitchen.

We hear waiting for crab and dumpling from Debra

[@ahsanb.csherringtion6591]

I was mesmerized by that pot.

[@MsTrinidougla]

In TRINIDAD we cut the tip off the legs and the claw s {gundy} so the sauce will flow through

[@abarisol]

Nicely done. I also really enjoyed your teaching style which combines real home cooking and professional chef tied together in with TT essence.

[@empressnaja]

I have got ,to try this the next time I`m in Trinidad & Tobago

[@empressnaja]

Great food , great people , and great country

[@MrGiantHippo]

[@debbiemarquis3231]

[@troypollonais9143]

why am I watching this while I'm hungry 😭😭😭

[@MrAfurlan]

Your presentation was lovely! Meal looks very tasty!

[@zochbuppet448]

Me like she. she is very knowledgeable. She even uses the the indian words, but I think chunkey means to add hot oil seasonings to a liquid like dahl. Form a Indo Caribbean family, not Indian so I wouldn't want to deal with all that whole geera swimming around like that, but she did say its not traditional. Wow Seriously Trinidadians always say they have Syrians and Lebanese as part of the cultural mix, but seriously people a few people that came as business people late in the game is not that much. If they were that much you would see it in the food. Trinidad seemed like it was always prosperous, because it had Chinese going as late as the 1930's

[@franceshenry838]

YOU ARE THE MOST PERFECT FLAWLESS, AND PROFESSIONAL CHEF EVER! I AM REALLY IMPRESSED WITH YOUR EXPERTISE!

[@mogains]

Well done chief. Great presentation and your kitchen nice too. The difference I use with my crabs are golden Ray and instead of dumplings I use buss up shot. My wife and family goes crazy when I cook it.

[@Batman-wv5ng]

What a beautiful neat lady and cooking explanation .

[@latinaturner]

I want to try this!

[@ilovemakeup100]

thank you love this and love the melodic sound of our accent

[@rickmathison7907]

Chef Debra, my mouth was watering all through your "curry crab and dumpling" cooking demo. Where I got lost was, you never mention what the quantities of the seasonings were. Great demo. Very simplistic.

[@KevinP32270]

GREAT GRAVITY THAT LOOKS AMAZING!!!!

[@Jillijoy]

That look so good man. Trying it tonight.

[@ladyamba1]

Deb, you are such a sweet person; as a fellow woman chef, you're my encouragement and inspiration! I trust you. So, go girl! I use cassava dumplings, and cook them directly into the sauce, so that they absorb the flavour of the sauce, and therefore do not need the small dumplings thickener. Yummy!

[@CarnivalVillage]

[@islandgirl3330]

Chef: I like using a bit of shortening and butter in my dumplings. I wonder what is the difference in mine? I even add a little sugar. Thanks for the video anyway. I had curry and crab for the first time last year in Trinidad. I found that it was too messy to eat it. I want to cook it soon but I will only use the claws. It will not be as messy to eat.

[@debbiemarquis3231]

I personally would roast meh geera then grind it.
