- Today's video shares a simple, tasty recipe for sardine choka! It's a popular Trinbagonian snack and is usually served with sada roti, fried bake, hops bread, coconut bake, pot bake or Crix crackers, and a side of hot Trinbagonian chocolate tea.
Here's a similar video I did last year for Lent: • Fish Choka | Taste of ...
What you need for the recipe:
3 cans of sardines (I used the one in water)
Bird peppers & hot peppers (optional)
Cilantro (optional) *celery leaves can also be used
Chive (green onion or scallion)
Bandhania, culantro, shadon beni or recao leaves
1/2 of a medium onion
2-4 cloves of garlic
1 tablespoon of oil (for chunkaying)
Salt & black pepper
Lemon or lime can also be used to neutralize the "fishy" smell.
Tip: I find that when I scrape the skin off and clean the inside, it's not very "fishy" so I don't use the lemon or lime.

Thank you for sharing this. I didn't know about this method for cleaning and prepping sardine. I like sardines but the smell and pieces of bone are off-putting 🙊 lol!
You're welcome. Preparation is key with sardines, and lemon or lime juice will help with the smell. 🙂
Reshmi u first person 👀ing cleaning sardine i try it nice one☺🙄
I was about to comment the same thing about the cleaning lol
Try adding a bit of hot sauce to the sardines. For some reason, it tastes more like shrimp to me, then.
I'm going to try this now! I love sardine the way it is I don't clean it,good protein. Ty
So happy to find this recipe for sardine choka, I cud never eat it because of the freshness and how it was prepared but after seeing this I can make it myself. Thanks so much..
Perfect way of preparing that sardine feel like eating sardine with fry bake right now
Just here to say thank you! As I never entertained the eating of sardines because they did not look clean. You just taught me how to clean it, maybe I will try it
Our paradise is filled with such unique cuisine! 🇹🇹🔥
I can certainly vouch for this delicious choka because you made it for me 😋👍🌟
I remember it was your farewell meal, and mom made tomatoes choka. Thanks for watching uncle Pete!

Love how you make ur sardine choka

I will definitely try this because when I make sardine it's only with pepper, tomatoes and onion. Love the idea of chive, shadon beni and chunkay it. The only I will add to this is tomatoes. Great recipe!

Thank you. Really? You must try this. It's a Trinbagonian favourite with a hot cup of Trini chocolate tea.
Yummy sardine and anything taste best I also add tomatoes to mines
Enjoy it, there is most definitely no other choice! I buy them sardines too, and enjoy the tomato ones mashed on toast. It is not good to wash them down the sink, ha ha. Looks awesome and your Mum's fried bake, well, what can you say! xxx

Asmr af.
I am the same way.. i have to clean my sardines... I make mine similar... I cook it with almost everything you added and with bakes.
Thanks for sharing your videos.I don't scrape the skin off the sardines nor do I take out the middle bone because that is filled with calcium. I like to eat the soft bones. too :) Can you get Mom to show us how she needed the dough for the bakes please, and the ingredients she used. Thanks.
Yummo😋
You clean sardines just like me! I squeeze lemon juice on it tho
Looks delicious, thanks for sharing

Hello Taste of Trini (^^!
Your sardine choka dish is the perfect recipe for a meal.
Various cooking ideas were helpful (^^)
Thank you for the wonderful video!
Great job
Food of trinidad Indians and fiji Indian's are very similar. Language as well
Delicious!
We do make the sardine chko like that I’m from Fiji🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹
Oh wow, nice! Glad to hear about the Trinbagonian and Fijian similarities. Thank you!
U cook more than great
This would go beautifully with some Paratha roti and a nice cup of tea. Very famous in Guyana.❤❤❤❤👍
That's definitely a great combo!
Nice one as always Reshmi
Hi good job girl keep it up and keep on going
Thank you so much for watching!
now I feel for sardines 😭
What does the hot oil do for the choka?
Hi. Watching your Mom do the fried bake made me think of perhaps air frying the bake, barra, or even pholourie. I wonder how that would come out.
I always wanted to try an air fryer. It would be interesting to see how it turns out in there. Thanks for watching!
Looks good as usual👌👌, will try that this evening👌
Thank you! Happy cooking and eating! Enjoy 🙂
Mouth watering 😁😁
What’s the measurements for the fry bake?
Looks delicious. I'm lazy... I buy the boneless skinless ones. Lol!
🤣 Hey, that works too. Saves you on time 👍🏼
I’ve never had sardine choka but I sure want some salt chihuahuas and bake. Lol. oh and some charlta anchar.
Nice
The chopping part felt very ASMR. 😵
I love all food related ASMR lol
😋😋
Gosh Reshmi i wish i could do fry bake like your mum boi didnt master fry bakes yet hmmmm🙄
What does Choka mean? I was born in Trinidad and just accepted the word Choka but never questioned the word/ meaning until I tried explaining to friends wherever I lived overseas - Brits, Aussies, Americans. They would ask what is Choka - had no answer.
It is usually made using fire roasted vegetables that are mashed finely, but in this case the sardine is mashed and mixed with aromatics and hot oil
Natash i like the way you made the sardene choka.bruswick sardines are from canada.l like marchel brand but i like mackerell.
Where did u buy the sardines
Those sardines look fat what brand is this?
Hey could you make a pizza from start to finish
I have a recipe here czcams.com/video/IwCfWy564oA/video.html🙂
It's more or less like making tuna for tuna sandwich, just add mayonnaise
I fell in love with you now I'm in love with your family. Enjoy your recipes thanks
Use boneless/skinless sardines
Sure, but not everyone gets that option 🙂
I feel I know ur mom
First
Nice! Thank you for watching!
That have bones
