Ingredients (Serves 6 or more)
2
cups ground split peas/channa (or use split peas powder)
2
teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon saffron powder (or 2 teaspoon turmeric)
4
teaspoon baking powder
1
teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon minced hot pepper
1
cup water
2
cups oil for frying
Method
1.In a large mixing bowl combine ground split peas, garlic, saffron/turmeric,
baking powder, flour, salt and hot pepper.
2.Mix a well in the center and add 1 cup of water. Combine, beating mixture
vigorously until batter is of a dropping consistency. It may be necessary to
add more water especially if using split peas powder.
3.When the oil is hot, drop by teaspoon into hot oil and deep fry until golden
brown and well cooked. Turn frequently to ensure even cooking. You will
notice that it will easily double in size as it cooks. Use long handle tongs to
help avoid hot oil splatter. You are looking for a golden brown colour and the

CARIBBEAN FOOD – A LITTLE HISTORY
The first known inhabitants of what we now describe as the Caribbean Islands
were Carib and Arawak, and the Taino Indians - a sub-group of the Arawak people. Their daily diet consisted substantially of vegetables and fruit, with fishing
as the primary source of protein. The Arawak/Taino grew cassava, corn (maize),
squash, beans, peppers, sweet potatoes, yams, and peanuts. (The name Arawak
is from “aru, the Lucayan word for cassava flour).
The Taino Indians started to cook meats in large clay pots while the Arawak Indians were the first to slow-cook meats on a grate made of thin green wood strips.
This grate was called a barbacoa – today we know it as a barbeque. The Carib
Indians were the ones to introduce spices to their foods with hot pepper sauces,
lemons and limes added to their meat and fish. They are said to have made the
first pepper pot stew.

PHOLOURIE RECIPE
(from the Naparima Girl’s High School Cookbook)
After Columbus’ arrival, the Caribbean became a crossroads for the world. Europeans brought African slaves into the region, and their source of food consisted
mainly of whatever the slave owners did not want to eat so they had to be inventive. They blended their traditional African foods with the staples found on the
island and produced such dishes we now know as souse, callaloo, fish cakes,
ackee and saltfish, to name a few. The English soldiers that arrived on the island
of Jamaica brought the technique if preserving meat over rocks in the hot sun.
Both the African and English meat preservation methods were refined by the
slaves in Jamaica and evolved into a slow cooking process that is now famously
known as “jerk” cooking.
Much of the Indian and Chinese influences in cooking styles were introduced
when after slavery was abolished, the Europeans went to India and China to find
replacement labourers. These new cooking styles introduced curry powder and
curried dishes to the Caribbean and rice became a staple in home cooked island
meals. Many new fruit trees and fruits were introduced to the Caribbean island by
Spaniards who brought oranges, lemons and limes, date palms, figs, grapes and
sugar cane to name a few. Product like ginger, tamarinds, and coconuts also were
introduced and used in cooking by some of the new workers.
With so many influences and blending of cooking techniques, it is no wonder that
Caribbean cooking is so rich and creative when it has been crafted by the cultures and flavours of the world! If you can’t get to the Caribbean, check out these
Caribbean cooking websites and try your hand at making some of these delicious
meals in your own kitchen. Enjoy!

Ginger beer is surprisingly easy to make, requiring minimal effort. The most important part of the process is the ginger you choose to make ginger beer.
Always pick ginger that is firm with smooth skin and a strong gingery scent. If the
root is cracked or withering, leave it alone. It’s always best to use fresh ginger for
ginger beer but if you have to buy it in advance, wrap it tight in napkins or paper
towels and keep it refrigerated.
Arlene’s Ginger Beer Recipe
4 large, fresh ginger roots
Juice from 2 limes or 1 small lemon
(1/4 cup of grapefruit juice if neither is available)
1 cup sugar (more if a sweeter taste is desired)
4 whole cloves and a small cinnamon stick.
After the skin is scraped off, grate the ginger. If using the blender or a food
processor, add liquid to get the ginger mashed properly. When grated, the
ginger is more potent and gives off a flavourful pungent smell. It’s best to work
with a glass jar because plastic affects the flavour of the drink.
In a glass jar or bottle, put your grated ginger, water, cinnamon, lemon juice or
lime juice and a few cloves – go easy with the cloves because they can change
the flavour of the ginger beer from spicy to sour. Set the jar/bottle in the sun or in
a warm area of your house for at least one hour. Leave longer for a stronger taste.
The next step is to strain the ginger beer. A trick that works to give the clearest
ginger beer is to put a good quality paper towel the bottom of your fine mesh
strainer to take out any particles. When you’ve finished straining the ginger beer,
add sugar to taste and if you want a really strong drink, put it back in the jar and
put it in the sun for another hour or two. After that it should be refrigerated. Some
people like the fermented taste, so if that’s the case, you can leave it out but use
it within two days.
All that’s left to do is pour the drink in a glass of ice, some like to add a dash
of bitters. With or without bitters - sit back and enjoy!
