TRINI ROTI - FLAVOUR FROM THE WEST INDIES
A West Indian-style curry, this Trini Roti hails from the deepest regions of the Caribbean. An heirloom recipe gifted to me by Chef Devin Marhue, known in his family as 'Uncle Kalo's Trini Roti'.

Steps:
- In a bowl, combine yogurt, minced garlic, and spices. Season chicken thighs well with salt before adding them to yogurt curry marinade, and covering to rest in the fridge for eight hours or (preferably) overnight.
- Remove chicken from the fridge and with hands, wipe away most of the marinade and cut into good-sized strips/chunks and reserve wet and cold. Heat good-sized pot with about half the oil and sweat onions until tender. Add remaining oil, garlic, ginger, spices, and chilies and cook, stirring constantly to prevent burning and create a thick curry paste, allowing flavors to release.
- Saute the chicken in hot curry paste to seal the flesh, about 5 minutes, then cover with stock and coconut milk and stir to coat and cover. Add potato and taro root and bring to a boil (add water if needed to cover) and reduce heat to a low and simmer - an hour or more.
- As the sauce thickens check seasoning, add additional heat (chilies) if needed add salt to taste. As roti wraps are finishing, add fresh coriander and stir, removing from heat to serve.
- In a large bowl sift together flour, salt, yeast, and baking powder, and begin adding water, about a 1/4 cup at a time. Knead in as much water as required to come to a firm dough, then cover with plastic wrap or a clean tea towel and let it rest for about 20 minutes in a warm spot. Note: depending on your flour you may need more water, dough should be springy, not tough.
- Knead rested dough for about 90 seconds. Divide dough into six even balls, pat or each into a round, flat disk. Move the dough onto a floured surface and roll into round sheets with a rolling pin until they are roughly 10-inches wide and a 1/4 inch thick.
- Lightly brush flat roti wrap with oil and place on a hot, flat skillet. Cook each side for about 2 minutes until brown bubbles begin to appear. Remove and cool.

CHANNA (CURRIED CHICKPEA FILLING FOR ROTI)
The roti, the delectable, fat, folded-up curry sandwich that is Indian Trinidad's main contribution to world cuisine, is a thoroughly creole invention that has no equivalent in India. (The word roti, in India, describes a kind of griddle bread.) Trinidad's roti begins with an enormous, almost pizza-sized flat bread that's often layered with a thin coating of powdery ground yellow peas. In Trinidad's top roti shops along El Socorro and the Eastern Main Road, the bread is slapped on the griddle when you order; you can watch it hiss and bubble as you wait. Then it's tucked like a blanket around a meat, fish or vegetable curry, wrapped in wax paper and foil, and the hot square package placed in a paper bag with a stack of napkins.

Steps:
- Heat the oil or ghee in a skillet and saute the onions over medium high heat, stirring constantly, for about 6 minutes, or until they are golden brown. When the onions are almost done, add the garlic and saute 2 minutes more. Add the curry and amchar powders and stir for 1 minute.
- Transfer the onion mixture to a cast iron or other heavy pot and add the chickpeas. Stir over medium heat until chickpeas are coated with the spices and onions. Add 1 cup of water, the Scotch bonnet pepper and salt to taste; stir. Bring to a simmer, cover and let simmer over low heat for 1/2 hour. (If the mixture dries out, add a little more water; the finished channa should be slightly thicker than a thick bean soup.) Let cool for a few minutes before adding to the roti.

CHICKEN CURRY AND ROTI
This is a recipe from my Fijian mother; nobody makes it like her! Since she never uses exact measurements, I've tried to classify them as best as I can. (The roti is a flat unleavened bread that is used to eat the curry). This is definitely spicy and can be quite time consuming to make. However, after growing up with this dish through the years, it's worth it. Plus, you can freeze the roti in foil and the curry in individual plastic bags for quick and easy meals during the week!

Steps:
- PREP:.
- Cut the chicken into bit size pieces. Add garlic and mix into chicken.
- In a separate bowl mix all of the spices and curry powder together (but not the bay leaves). Slowly add spice mixture into chicken/garlic while mixing by hand to ensure even coverage. Set the mixed chicken aside to sit for a while while you make the Roti.
- ROTI:.
- Boil water and let the water cool until you can handle it with your hands (you'll be kneading the Roti dough).
- Mix 4 cups of flour with the salt and then add the hot water until it is moist but not sticky. You want the consistency of a flat dough that will be rolled out using a wooden rolling pin.
- Take a little more than half a stick of room temperature butter and add it to the flour and water mixture. This will keep the dough from sticking to your hand and itself.
- Use judgment for rolling consistency. Flour flat surface and rolling pin and form dough into balls. Roll balls out to flat and thin consistency, about 6-7 inches. Heat up your frying pan to medium-high heat.
- (Note: Sometimes, I do this using two pans to make it go faster). Take a paper towel and use oil to rub onto pan before each roti that you cook. The roti will form small brown spots on each side when done. Do not overcook, it should never be stiff. When done in the pan, put on a plate lined with paper towels and cover with a dish towel to keep it warm.
- After my Roti is done, I begin with the curry -- although you can always do both at the same time too.
- CURRY:.
- Pour just enough oil to cover the bottom of a large pot. Place 4 bigger bay leaves into the pot and warm oil on medium for a few minutes (before the bay leaves turn brown).
- Turn heat to high and add chicken. Cook at high heat stirring every minute for 10 minutes, then turn to medium/medium low heat. Use your judgment when cooking at high heat because you don't want the chicken to stick or burn. If the pot is lacking any liquid from the high temperature, add small amounts of water or chicken stock. As the chicken cooks longer, the juices are released. Use your judgment.
- 5 minutes after turning the heat from high to medium/medium low, add the cubed potatoes and eggplant. When potatoes are done, the curry is done. Make sure the eggplant is dissolved into the curry.
- You're all finished! Use the curry to scoop up your meal; no silverware required!

- Using a cleaver, or any good solid knife, chop the top part off the drumstick. Check to see if there are any little chipped pieces of bone hanging around. Remove them, if there are, and wash them one more time.
- Pulse the onion, garlic, ginger, 1/2 cup cilantro and hot pepper in the food processor until finely chopped. Remove the seeds of the pepper if you do not like it really hot.
