🇹🇹 Traditional PHOLOURIE Recipe by Chef Shaun | Foodie Nation

Pholourie is a snack-sized ball made by combining split peas, flour, various seasonings, and spices into a thick batter and frying to crispy perfection. It’s usually served with chutney and pepper sauce.
Yield - 8 to 10 Snack-Sized Portions.
Ingredients
Split Peas Mixture:
Water - 4 cups
Dried Split Peas - ½ cup
Garlic - 1 ½ tbsp (roughly chopped)
Chadon Beni/Culantro - ¼ cup (roughly chopped)
Hot Pepper - ½ tbsp or to taste (roughly chopped)
Salt - 1 ½ tbsp
Turmeric Powder - 1 tsp
Pholourie:
All Purpose Flour - 3 cups (sifted)
Split Peas Mixture - 1 cup
Instant Yeast - 1 tsp
Baking Powder- 1/2 tsp
Turmeric Powder- 3/4 tsp
Salt- 1 ½ tsp
Chadon Beni/Culantro - ¼ cup (finely chopped)
Garlic - 4 cloves (finely chopped)
Hot pepper- 1 tsp or to taste (finely chopped)
Water- 1 ¾ cups
Oil for Frying - 4 cups
Method
1. For your split peas mixture, add your water to a small pot and bring to a boil.
2. Once boiling, add all your remaining ingredients and allow to cook until peas are tender (about 25 to 35 minutes).
3. Drain off excess liquid and transfer to your food processor.
4. Process until your mixture turns into a coarse but even consistency.
5. Add to your flour and mix until evenly incorporated.
6. Add your yeast, baking powder, turmeric, and salt and mix until evenly incorporated.
7. Next, add your chadon beni, garlic, and hot pepper.
8. Once evenly incorporated, add your water, 1/3 at a time.
9. You’re aiming for a thick batter.
10. Once it’s reached the desired consistency, cover with a warm damp cloth, clingwrap, or foil and allow to rest for 1 hour.
11. With 10 minutes left on the timer, preheat your oil to 350F.
12. Fill a large pot with oil ensuring to only fill it 1/3 of the way to prevent spillage.
13. Once your oil to preheated, fry your Pholourie.
14. This can be done in 2 ways; by dipping 2 tablespoons in the hot oil, filling 1 with batter, and using the other to scrape it off into the oil.
15. Or you can wet your hand with water, scoop one Pholourie ball worth of batter into your hand and squeeze it out between your thumb and index finger.
16. Once fried to golden perfection, transfer to a wire rack or paper-filled bowl to allow excess oil to drain off.
17. Repeat the process until all your batter is finished.

[@karminiparsan9256]

Excellent demo!! I never knew about cooking the split peas before mixing. I know about using split peas powder with flour. Now I know a different way and will try it👌👌

[@dok5187]

Very good demo

[@healthismywealth9668]

Chef.. Could you reserve the water that was strained from the split Peas, allow it to cool and use that to mix in the flour mixture? I think it will give even more flavor. Love this recipe.. ❤

[@bharathouseplants9799]

I love the voice of this guy. Well spoken ... which makes the instructions so easy to follow. Professional and Well presented...Great job Shaun! 👍

[@esogod3326]

Looks good but traditional pholourie actually has more dhal/split peas than flour or it has strictly dhal alone which makes it gluten free.

[@marlondopson6728]

Hi Shaun. Thank you for the demo and thank you for the accra recipe.

[@annmarieb987]

Attention to detail, great recipe with a lovely twist, the Pholourie looks delicious. We need to see you often, great job Chef.🤗🤗

The use of the spilt peas I am sure will add another dimension of favour and texture. Will definitely try !

[@rabihaantar75]

Was never tried making it before before but this gives me the idea on how to do it thanks for sharing

Your presentation and result of this recipe is really the best. After having pulourie from vendors etc, I always thought it was just flour, split peas turmeric,baking pwd and salt . Your recipe is it. Thank you. I will surely try it for myself.

So different! We normally soak the split peas then blend it together in our flour and rest of our ingredients. But it looks good tho

[@riasahadeo1937]

Yummy 😋

[@fisharefriends598]

Them split peas still bouncing. So they are still relatively firm when cooked??

[@AnthinaWalker]

It’s more than half a cup for the split peas

[@hashimeenabdool9963]

Wait you did not wash it har ???

[@seygra20]

Best recipe.........Good job Chef!....that hand technique is too messy for me. I'll stick to the spoons.

[@richardtpgusa7236]
