    Can we have Chef B as a regular on this channel? I love the reality of this episode. She slap the bara in the paper like a real doubles man and when she lifted the spoon of channa and yuh hear the plataps... yuh know it was bess doubles!!

      Hi wonderful wonderful video, congratulations 🍾🎊🎈. But how can I get the actual recipe please. The link isn’t opening up and I’m not on Twitter nor Facebook. Help 🤷🏾‍♂️

    @eatahfood I love that you'll didn't cut when the pot was boiling over when the baking soda was added it shows us exactly what could happen when we as followers are following the recipe. I definitely have to try Chef Brigette Joseph recipe for doubles. I just have to go to the Caribbean market to get the ingredients. But it seems Chef Brigette Joseph was a little nervous but that's cool. She did a great job!

      Haha yeah wanted to keep it real. Sometimes these things happen in the kitchen. Being on camera is no easy task so there will always be an element of nerves involved but Chef Brigette is a boss. Looking forward to seeing your doubles! Make sure to post a photo and tag us :)

    I’m really glad I got here from another channel making doubles. Even though I have never made them from scratch myself...as a cook of many years you know you cannot make a curry, paprikash, or anything with complex and dynamic flavours on the stovetop in 20 mins. When I saw 2+ hours to cook the channa I knew this was the recipe! Real cooking that was going to get me the authentic result I aim for. Who wants to waste ingredients, attention, and time on a recipe that is “pretty good”? If I make something, I want it to be the best... no bs. The pretend YT intro says everything about you Chef Brigette... you’re the real deal. I will be cooking my channa from DRY and throwing the word ‘popsy’ around like I invented it ... (unless someone ask, then I tell them all about you!)
    You have a new devotee. 🖤🖤🖤
    Thank you muchly! 🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦♥️🇨🇦

    @triniemperror Před 3 lety +21

    Some of the recipes I've seen on CZcams for doubles makes me wonder where the hell did they buy their doubles from and what part of 🇹🇹 they come from. This is by far the best recipe I've seen on here. It looks authentic and I know it tastes good. Its the same recipe I use to make my channa. Great personality and smile also.

Authentic! Easy to follow! I've been surfing CZcams looking for a doubles recipe since last lockdown and two days ago, this video caught my attention! Awesome awesome job Chef B! U the real MVP!

    Thumbs up to u dear lady! We just had doubles for dinner and it was perfect. The channa mixture was just like the doubles man delight. And the bara, oh my God! The one or two times I tried it it was crispy and fluffy. Never knew you had to sweat it for softness and thinness. It was perfect. My husband always laughed at me when I tried making it but today he said it was better.than the doubles man's. Thank you for good demo and detailed explanation. It made all the difference. I guess the brand name chefs never give the secrets. Your method is de bess!!! Keep working in honesty. God bless

    Great Job Chief Brigette. Am Presently looking at your video here in COLD!! Cleveland, Ohio, USA. it is presently 33 deg. and will drop further by the morning. When I saw you take a bite from the doubles, I wondered, just what I am doing in this cold place tonight. Would prefer to be on the Southern Main Road in Curepe lining up with the SOURCE guys. I would try this recipe tomorrow but may do it in the Crockpot instead. Great job!!!!!!!!! Will keep you posted if it turns out well.

      @saryarohit2925 Před 3 lety +2

      Hey Sabina, I have tried and tested this - use baking powder! Try a tsp and a half. Works like a charm!
      Baking soda or baking powder is used to expedite the process of softening the channa and dhaal; it helps it to "mash up".

  • @tracyjulien3287
    @tracyjulien3287 Před 3 lety +2

    The baking soda is to soften the channa & make it cook faster. Baking soda is used when soaking the channa and not while boiling! Baking soda adds no special flavour to the channa!
