    We Indians in East Africa have the same way of making Saheena .instead of putting in the fridge we steam cook then deep fry.
    With baigan and potatoes it's the same recipe. That was great to share something across the continents. God bless grand ma 🙏💥💯 Happy Diwali

    @sharinasingh5180 Před 3 lety +15

    Interesting this is so different from what I use to seeing how my grandmother made this saheena but again it’s where your ancestors migrated from their are so many different types of cooking style that came from India that our great grand parents brought with them so this is how we recognize the state they came from beautiful cultures we still follow today.

    In Fiji we call it SAINA. In terms of ingredients we use yellow split peas and urdi dhal paste and liitle rice flour, salt, garlic paste , dry toasted zeera powder, tamarind paste, pinch of tumeric powder , besan , and dalo leaves. We don't use normal flour nd corn flour. Nd b4 frying we STEAM the roll nd then we cut it to slices nd deep fry it. Fiji Indians love it.

    • @Rosemoon938
      @Rosemoon938 Před 5 měsíci

      Yes here in India also, we never use all purpose flour and corn flour to make this recipe, which is called Patrode. Most states in India make their own version. The leaves used are Arvi leaves in India. Fiji culture is the closest to India among all Islands where bonded Indian labourers were taken and rehabilitated. 🙏

    Yes, you are blessed to still have your nanny with you.
    This looks so good, I can taste it just looking at this video. I’m serious, my mouth is watering 🤤. I ate this some years back at my Trini friend’s puja. I enjoyed it. Thanks to you and nanny, I now have the recipe. I live in New York, might be a challenge to get taro bush…can I use regular poi baggies. I absolutely love taro leaves. I haven’t had that in years either. This brings back a lot of memories. You and nanny make an excellent team. Blessings🙏🏽🙏🏽❤️💕

  • @skinnydee1886
    @skinnydee1886 Před 3 lety +4

    I always make two kinds of saheena. One is like this where I rolled out the whole leaves and paste them. The other one, I'd chop the leaves into thin strips and mix it into the batter and then fry; I'm sure that Nanny also knows about this.
    I love saheena with mango or tamarind chutney. I also love saheena cooked like curried fish with a little gravy; it looks and taste just like fish!
    I enjoyed this video; thanks to you and granny; God bless you both🙏🙏🙏🙏

    • @HistoryRepeats101
      @HistoryRepeats101 Před měsícem

      Thanks for the suggestion with the strips. Never learned to cook Trinidad food but love in moderate quantities and was thinking about these as I just bought fresh organic kale, but realize I don’t have any of those flours.

    Nani (Grandma) picked the small center taro leaves. If you have a bit bigger ones that's ok too. However, the big difference in ours is we steam it after wrapping it up in the rolls. That way ALL the leaves have cooked through. Then sliced and deep fried. It truly is a yummy dish and you need to have time to fix it.

    Cooking Sahena/Sahina....that's quite an old Hindostani recipe 🙂 I made it once and I like the technique. I love Sahina but the Surinamese Hindostani people don't make Sahina a lot; it's considered old fashioned. I'm Dutch and I cook a lot Suriname-style, especially roti and gosh in masala. Have fun cooking together with your nani/adji!🔪 Love from The Netherlands🌍
