Mark you are wrong when you say that you won't find such food in India. Actually you are familiar with typical North and South Indian fare. Emigration of sugar farmers from British India to South America, Africa and Pacific islands during the 1800s took place from a zone you may call Central East to Central North. This is roughly the area between Varanasi and Kolkata. The cooking style and ingredients you have shown today is very much familiar in this zone, of course you have some unique Trinidadian influences from other cultures and some new inventions as well. Actually you have never visited these states in India in much depth. You can find linkages to South East Asian cuisine also here. You went to Bangladesh where you may have found some similarities but their cuisine has many influences from North India and beyond. A couple more key cuisines you have not covered so far are in Western India, called Konkani and Malabar/ Malwani. Internationally, only North and South Indian culinary styles have been known so far because perhaps they are less nuanced.

You will find this in India. Taro leaves fried with chickpea flour is called Alu chi vadi in Maharashtra and Patra in Gujarat but it's served without toppings. The doubles looks like a variation of 'Chole bhature'. Never seen Chataigne before but it looks like Jackfruit. Grilled eggplant is 'Baingan bharta'. Dhal Puri is similar to Puran Poli but the latter is sweetened with jaggery. The Buss up Shut is just like a Kerala Parotta. Trinidad culture is fascinating.

I love how you have segmented the videos along specific themes. One on Street Food. One on Indian Food. I know a few more are coming! Uncle Clyde up in Paramin, Maracas, Tobago etc. and they are organized around different cuisines to truly show off the diversity. That will make all Trinbagonians very happy as nobody likes to feel left out.

Well, India doesn t contain any single or unique culture rather it has so many diverse cultural traits and different languages. So it would be much informative if we could know from which culture of India is represented here. Anyways the video is so informative and enjoyable indeed.

Nice video. Delighted to watch the fusion of Indian and Caribbean cuisine. Some foods here seem similar to Bengali cuisines in India but in a modified form. I will definitely try to cook some of these at home. Love from India

Most of the foods are similar to Bangladeshi cuisine. This clay stove is used in Both Bangladesh and west Bengal widely in the villages, even in the cities. Due to LPG gas now less in the household of middle-class people.

Chataigne (from the French) is what are our chestnuts.
Glad you are still here. Recommend our other cultures to explore that were left out of the first vid. Chinese and Lebanese in particular. Happy trails!
