Trini Style Provision Soup w/ Dumplings - My Trini Mom makes dal soup
Vložit
- čas přidán 8. 08. 2021
- Today my Trini mom teaches us how to make her version of provision soup, or dal soup. It's something she remembers her mom making on rainy days, and it's something that I've eaten throughout my childhood. Provision soup (dal soup) is typically made with a variety of ground provisions - root vegetables, and other vegetables that grow underground. But, it also contains green fig. Another distinctive feature is the addition of "dumplings." These are not stuffed dumplings like you might expect, rather it is best to think of them as loosely shaped blobs of dough. My mom makes hers from whole wheat flour and details the way her own mother made dumplings for soup. I hope you enjoy this family recipe, and do let me know if the comments what mom should cook next!

Grandma's food the best 😋
It certainly is! Thanks!
Much love from Saskatchewan, Canada!
My mom and mums (grandma) use corn on the cob as well, cut in two inch thick "slices"... but this looks like comfort to me, either way.
I'm sick and I think this is what I need right now ❤ just watching it cooking got me feeling comforted.
Thank you for this lovely comment! I will pass it on to my Mum ♥️🙏🏽 I'm glad you enjoyed this video.
My husband's 56 year old female cousin is in hospital treating with recently diagnosed leukemia and wanted this soup for her meal after all the hospital food...ugh. She thoroughly enjoyed my efforts after she tasted it. It made her so happy. I will make this again and I thank you for keeping the traditional Trini cooking on you tube so we can all learn. Thank you Mom!
Michelle! Thank you so much for sharing this with me, I will pass on your comment to my mom as well. I'm so pleased that you were able to make this soup for her! Hospital food can be so unappealing - I'm happy to know that she enjoyed the soup you prepared for her with so much love! ♥️♥️♥️
Looks delicious, the winter is coming and I will definitely try to make this soup for my husband, thank you.
So hearty an warming especially for the winter! Do let me know if you give it a try ❤️
Ohhh Aneela my favourite tv mom ...she is such a sweet, kind lady. Dhal/ provision soup yum
I will pass on these lovely words to my Mumzie :)
Greetings from Germany.I have to try this soup with peppersauce (Trinidad Scorpion) or fresh habaneros.Thanks to your Mom for this recipe 💟
Guten tag Frank! Thank you for this lovely comment! I certainly do hope that you try it and please let us know how you like it! I will pass on your kind words to my mom 🇨🇦🇩🇪
I tried this soup in Trinidad already.But I have to cook it here in Germany again.In the summertime I love to cook Rasta Food,Indian,Greek and Mexican Food (vegetarian and vegan).Respect to your Mom 💟
Wow Frank! That is certainly the eclectic repertoire! I would love to eat all those foods 😋
💖
my gosh this soup looks so good. Your mom is adorable!
Oh thank you so much! I will pass on your kind words to my Mumzie!
Yummy
It's always so good!
Your mom is so cute. Her cooking reminded me of my granny's soup with legumes and dumplings, called "Gwarcha" which I had long forgotton. Thank you so much for sharing.
Oh thank you! I will pass on your kind words to my Mumzie! I'm so happy the memory of your granny's soup was returned to you, take care Diya 👍🏽💗
👍🏾👍🏾💐💐
I'm a Trini
🇹🇹♥️
Wow that looks so hearty🥰🥰🥰 I think it would be perfect on a cold winter evening! I will definitely try this recipe. Your mom is adorable ❤❤❤
Love your Mom. She is like my Indonesian Aunties when they gather together to prepare a communal or family fest with a big buffet. They cook in the backyard shed as the frying of fish or meat can give a lot of oily smoke. You don´t want it in the kitchen or house.😀
You are too kind Michel! Thank you for your kind words, and I will pass them on to my mom. My grandmother had an outdoor kitchen for exactly the same purpose! Sometimes my mom will even say that it would be nice to have one so we don't "curry up the house!" Hahaha!
There's some veggies here I've never heard about before today! It looks simple and delicious! Thanks for the great video as always and hope to see your mum again on this channel!
I'm curious to know which ones! Is it the eddoes? They are some of my favourites. They are a bit starchy, but we also cook them for breakfast (just with onion, garlic, chilli pepper and salt) until they get soft and mushy. It's a dream! I'll pass on your kind words to my Mum :)
@@maharajaneela Definitely eddoes, I may be able to find them in an Asian grocery store as I've seen taro there before, but they're definitely novelty here. But also that banana-looking green fig! I only know the round and sweet ones that are very red inside (the skin is usually green or purple), or maybe they are the same but you use them before they're ripe? It's also impossible here to find any kind of sweet potato that is not orange, which I guess you would call yams (and we call boniato or batata).
I've yet to try but I think the beauty of this soup (please correct me if I'm saying nonsense!) is that the main flavours come from the red lentils, cumin, turmeric and alliums which are all very easy to find here, then I can substitute any starch I don't have with another starchy vegetable, I'm thinking boniato, turnip, squash or maybe even fresh corn! I'll definitely give it a try when the summer heat goes down!
You're absolutely correct! Sometimes my Mom uses the orange sweet potato. It all depends on what is available. And the beauty of this soup is that you can make it with whatever you have in hand. Sometimes people made it with whatever they could grow in their garden. I've also had very humble versions of this soup made with potatoes and carrots as the only vegetables. The veggies you mentioned would all be so delicious 😋
This video was adorable. Loved the banter between you and your momma.
I showed this to my Trini husband and he said it's like his mom would make too :)
My vote for her next recipe would be - red bean soup.
Thank you so much Narita! Sometimes it seems like all we do is banter! My mama and I talk a lot of sh*t too when it's just us, haha! I'm glad that you like this recipe and maybe one day you'll cook it for your husband! Now when it comes to the red bean soup, I'm going to have to do some investigating because I have never had it before. I will ask my mom if it's something she's familiar with. Besides the red bean, what else goes into this soup?
I hope to cook the provision soup one day! As for the Red Bean Soup - the husband said it is just called Red Bean. Besides the red bean, there's onion, celery, spices, not too sure, but it's all cooked down real soft and flavourful.
Oh red bean!!!!!!! Yes, I know this. She does cook it 👍🏽❤️
Ohhh what I would do for a nice hot bowl of dhal soup with ground provisions!! Haven't eaten it in years, it looks perfect for this upcoming week of rainy weather! Great job Aunty! My mom makes the fluffy, floatable dumplings for her dhal soup, but next time I'll experiment making it your way. And I second the request for a pelau video from Aunty!
Oh you must try it! I have never had the kind with puffy dumplings, but when I read your comment to my mom, she seems to now exactly what you meant. I would love to try it! When we are through this pandemic, I'm going to your parent's place for it!
Reminds me of the soup my Nani used to make.
I'm glad it brought back fond memories of this comforting soup!
Love your Mum and provision soup! My Nani and Mum made this too. A real treat from my childhood. Can we see Auntie make stewed lentils?
Well you know how she feels about lentils! But I will ask her nonetheless!
You can boil the dhal separate too then add in. Don't know what is haldie
It's turmeric! 👍🏽🥰
@@maharajaneela okay well I know it then 😊
Your mom should cook some dhal purie and and curry aloo...dont know if you did a vlog before
She does in fact make dhal puri! I think her recipe is excellent so I will pass on the request! I have a playlist with all her videos: czcams.com/play/PLQFIdV3enFKA-l5LI7iIKGaBWqQSzpG1K.html
@@maharajaneela thank you ...you know why ...she reminds me of my nani/grandmorher...i miss her so much
