1/2 cup veg shortening (cold, in cubes)

So I am a Puerto Rican and my husband is from Trinidad. Every time I make this he gets taken back home. Thank you for this delicious treat😋❤️
Growing up in the islands (St.Kitts) my Auntie used to make these all the time like a boss, they are called Rasin Rolls. She also always had Rasin's soaking in Rum for cake making goodness and would sometime make Rasin Rolls with Rum soaked Rasins.... Mercy! And i just couldn't get enough of this guilty pleasure pastry good eat. You just couldn't eat one, you had to eat another and another. Her Rasin rolls were always flaky crust and always had them in a brown paperbag to carry around all sliced up the roll. Rasin Rolls were da bomb!
Ardent Dfender in Barbados they are called current slices
Sounds amazing with the rum!
Agreed. Man. Been living in the US for over 18 years. Thank you so much for taking me back to my roots with your recipes. Trinidad Massive!!!!!!
Hi Chris, I have been following you for a couple of years and out of all the other bloggers/vloggers, I like your recipes best. People can't believe a Yankee can cook this way! I give you all the credit. Thank you!
I am so glad that you make these videos . I lost my my mom at an early age and never was able to get the hang of West Indian cooking . Now I am able to enjoy some of the dishes that I enjoyed as a child. Thank you for posting these videos . Keep up the good work.
Self raising flour is, flour that has a leavening agent - baking powder - and salt added to it during packaging. Plain flour is just plain flour... Hope this helps :D You do great cooking ,thank you for sharing !
I see crumbs on your lips. Must be good can't wait to try it. Thank you for sharing
I wish someone would give you a show on the food network. I'm tired of them making Americanized "Caribbean" dishes. We need a real West Indian to represent us. But anyway, thanks for your recipes
They take the recipes from him, and include it in their own show, then reap the benefits...

Grenada's tuned in, a pleasant Good Night to my Trinidadian brothers and sisters, I must say this is one of the best recipe I've ever seen and the rolls look very tasty. I haven't made Currant Rolls in a while and so I ended up here, didn't regret it at all.
I wish you were my brother, I love all your dishes.

His dinner presentation was surprisingly great, and dessert of current rolls was delicious. This was a man who couldn't boil water. He is originally from Trinidad. June-July we visited Trinidad; my first visit had a good time. Went to Maracas Beach....love the bake and shark.

I made this for my mother on Mother's Day. It was very simple, and it came out great!.. Thanks Chris =)
Thanks for the recipe.
no a food processor. you can easily do this by hand though. Just try to be quick as you don't want the butter to get warm.
just made this!!!!! #cameoutrealbest
