    Saheena is essentially a West Indian vegan, spinach fritter. Made with flour or ground split peas, spices and seasonings, it comes together quickly and so delicious. It is a popular snack/Trinidad street food eaten with mango or tamarind chutney.

    I have never used yeast in sahena..but I used it after seeing the video and I was very pleased with the result. It was lighter and remained crispy for a longer time. I will be doing it like this from now on. Thank you

    Yes please to see the rolled version. Can I also request for pepper sauce recipe please Aunty. I’m British Bangladeshi but I feel so close to Trinidad in terms of people and food. I love it. We have so much similarities in terms of the names of our food and the utensils we use (even their names)

  • @CurriesWithBumbi
    @CurriesWithBumbi Před 3 lety +1

    So nice to see all your relatives getting together and participating in the kitchen. Wish my relatives were living near me . Miss them very much . Whenever I go to India we all get together and cook like this. Your video brought tears to my eyes as my aunt has so much resemblance with your aunt. Never used yeast in my bhajis. Looks similar to palak pakora though I use besan (gram flour). Is the pui saag from your garden Ria? I love Pui saag .

    • @CookingWithRia
      @CookingWithRia  Před 3 lety

      Hi Bumbi. I know the feeling. We don’t get together as much nowadays due to the circumstances. I hope you will be reunited with your family soon. Sending love and hugs. Yes, the poui and eddoes leaves were from my garden. I was experimenting with the latter and it turned out great. Like others, had no idea that the leaves of the eddoes plant were edible until my aunt picked it and said to use it. Btw I don’t know what you call eddoes India?

    • @CurriesWithBumbi

    @rayrayrules11 Před 3 lety +1

    Yummm!! I’m fiji-Indian and my mum would call this bhaijia but call saina the one the is rolled. For bhaijia mum will use chopped spinach but saina has to be taro leaves and has smears the leaves with a spice paste, then it is rolled up.

    • @teresita1320
      @teresita1320 Před 3 lety

      I'm from Suriname and I don't know bhajija. No one in the family made this vegetarian delicacy. Know saheena and it is also made in Suriname from an urdi spice paste which is spread on a taro leaf. My mother used large taro leaves. She cut off the thick veins of each leaf, so that the leaf was divided in two. She smeared 1 half leaf with the paste, put another half leaf on it, which she also smeared, the top leaf was not smeared. She made a layer of 4 or 5 half leaves and cut pieces across the width of the leaf and fried the pieces in hot oil.

    I always admire it more whenever you have your Aunts involved in cooking with you. I like when the older folks share their knowledge of cooking. Beautiful. I don't think this is known in Guyana but I'm not sure. It's looking real delicious and satisfying. I love tamarind or mango sour.😁🙏😁🇬🇾👍❤
