FROM TRINIDAD TO FLATBUSH AVE

Published by


Doubles are the most insanely delicious Trinidadian snack: chick peas cooked in a spicy curry tucked inside a roti-like dough: OMG. Big ups to our beloved Michelley for all her Trini influences and taking us out to Flatbush ave in Brooklyn for Doubles and Chubbies. Her Curried Crab and dumplings, a recipe included in my first book (the only non-Jamaican one in there)http://www.amazon.com/Jamaican-Cooking-Roadside-Homestyle-Recipes/dp/0028610016 is a transcendental eating experience. But, it’s only for the the chewers and spitters amongst you-not anyone looking for large chunks of easily accessed meat.
