Trini Bread and Channa | Taste of Trini

Trini Cooking with Natasha's video: • Video
Here's a popular Trinidad street food that I love! I love to get this at a cafe named Nick's in Charlieville so I tried to recreate their bread and channa with cheese. Here's what you will need:
For the Hops Bread:
4 cups of AP flour
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup sugar
1 tbsp coconut oil
4 tbsp butter
1 tbsp yeast
3/4 cup water
2/3 cup milk
golden ray butter to brush on top
Let it rise in the oven at 180F for 20 minutes. Then, put it to bake at 375F for 15 minutes.
For the Channa Filling:
1 1/2 cups dry channa, chick peas or garbanzo beans, soaked in water, 1/2 tsp baking soda and baking powder overnight. - Boil until nice and tender in salt and 1 tsp baking soda
salt
1/4 cup green seasoning
2 leaves of shadon beni or bandhania, chopped
1 tsp curry powder+1 tsp roasted ground geera+1/2 tsp ground black massala+ 1/2 ts turmeric powder
8-10 cloves of garlic, minced
1 hot pepper
1 onion, diced
oil
Trini Cheese (New Zealand Cheddar)

[@plokyturd4075]

😘😘😚😚😋😋😋😋

[@ninoskasingh5312]

sorry meant to type aloo not also

[@russell3893]

Hi beautiful

[@einsteinwallah2]

why even bother making this in sandwich style? why not just serve chanaa curry separate and serve in styrofoam or aluminium container or any container for that matter? that way you can serve more anything that customer wants ... more chanaa, more cheese etc etc ... chanaa is never right sandwich material ... it is bound to fall off a few grains of chanaa ... here is a suggestion to make it fit for a sandwich: mash chanaa with something that will make it as spreadable and top it not with cheese but big onion round or big (cooked) potato slice and sprinkle with roast jeera and black salt and some red chili powder ... cheese is not good with any curry ... this cheese obsession is driven by slavishly aping western habits and of course dairy industry vested interests

[@brittneydavis1306]

I will never understand why people this so much. Its nasty

[@djmak3203]

What is nasty about it?

[@sandrabalkissoon5860]

Why do u have to call good food nasty ?? U should be ashamed of yourself, you are very ignorant .
