TRINIDAD DOUBLES
Instructions
Prep:10minCook:1h 30min
Doubles is by far the most popular, cheap, satisfying, fast food and beloved street food in Trinidad. It is a delicious sloppy sandwich made with two pillowy soft baras-flat fried breads-filled with channa also known as curried chickpeas. It is a vessel for the mouth watering condiments and Caribbean flavors. Condiments range from a choice of grated cucumber, tamarind chutney, kuchela, hot sauce (peppah sauce) or sometimes even coconut chutney to a "lil bit of everything". I have heard rumors of triples—the use of three baras. The fillings too have become creative with chicken or goat. I have never tried or seen it so I can’t attest to its actual existence.
