Saheena is essentially a West Indian vegan, spinach fritter. Made with flour or ground split peas, spices and seasonings, it comes together quickly and so delicious. It is a popular snack/Trinidad street food eaten with mango or tamarind chutney.

WITH LOVE AND BEST DISHES,
RIA B.
I have never used yeast in sahena..but I used it after seeing the video and I was very pleased with the result. It was lighter and remained crispy for a longer time. I will be doing it like this from now on. Thank you
Appreciate your feedback. Others will certainly benefit. Thanks.
Looks yummy love from Australia
Karmini, is your "yeast-free" recipe similar, just without the yeast?
YUM
I dont mean to be off topic but does anyone know a way to log back into an Instagram account?
I was dumb lost the password. I appreciate any help you can offer me
Hi Ria! Love that you are coming through with the vegan recipes, thank you! This is a family affair and I just love it!
wow !!!!! spinach Pakoda looksSo yummy
Yes please to see the rolled version. Can I also request for pepper sauce recipe please Aunty. I’m British Bangladeshi but I feel so close to Trinidad in terms of people and food. I love it. We have so much similarities in terms of the names of our food and the utensils we use (even their names)
I love all your dishes and you make it so simple to follow this is going to be a must try thank you.
I always admire it more whenever you have your Aunts involved in cooking with you. I like when the older folks share their knowledge of cooking. Beautiful. I don't think this is known in Guyana but I'm not sure. It's looking real delicious and satisfying. I love tamarind or mango sour.😁🙏😁🇬🇾👍❤
Thanks! Wish I could have them on more but because of Covid we’ve had to distance ourselves! Appreciate you stopping by!
thank you for this my autistic son loves them I had to roast bell peppers because he dose not care for spicy but again I really loved these so thank you he is picky and he ate it with out complaint
I learnt so much from you through this channel. Everything is so simple to follow. Thank you!
These look delicious. Thanks Ria😋
Great video Ria. Going to try this and give you some feedback. I'd love to see a video for the rolled version too which is my favourite. Thanks.
Always adore you Ria...saheena looks delicious ..beautiful indeed
Good eating love it
I love seeing your Aunty Jang!
I love cooking an I admire your delicious recipes as well as your personality. You are also polite yet informative. God bless you 🙏🏽😘👍🏾
I made this along with the boiled mango chutney and it came out PERFECT! I thank you for sharing with us. I’m first American born in my family from Trinidad, but can give the culture a true run for their money thanks to people like you! Thank you truly for all you do!
💓 🇹🇹 💓
So nice to see all your relatives getting together and participating in the kitchen. Wish my relatives were living near me . Miss them very much . Whenever I go to India we all get together and cook like this. Your video brought tears to my eyes as my aunt has so much resemblance with your aunt. Never used yeast in my bhajis. Looks similar to palak pakora though I use besan (gram flour). Is the pui saag from your garden Ria? I love Pui saag .
Hi Bumbi. I know the feeling. We don’t get together as much nowadays due to the circumstances. I hope you will be reunited with your family soon. Sending love and hugs. Yes, the poui and eddoes leaves were from my garden. I was experimenting with the latter and it turned out great. Like others, had no idea that the leaves of the eddoes plant were edible until my aunt picked it and said to use it. Btw I don’t know what you call eddoes India?
Thanks my dear Ria. I also haven’t seen edoes leaves before.
Brings back fond memories of buying this at street corners in Port of Spain..Thanks so much for the recipe dear Ria..love and light always Debbie from London xx
I hope aunty went n let her swallowen hand get rest especially after de heat... That hand doesn't look good sorry to say.... We women like to play to much hero inno.. Tell aunty rub some balm n take her meds for it please... I like ur videos I watch them to relax myself.... Lol. Take care of each other.
Always a delight to be in Ria's kitchen, hats off to all the aunties, thanks for sharing God bless you all stay safe !!
I am definitely going to make this for sure!!! Thanks Ria!!😊❤️😊

Thank you Ria! This is not only amazing food, but heartwarming family memories you are making. Love the conversation going on, the unique Trini talk and accent. Bless you all, esp you, lovely lady. X
Thank you kindly and blessings to you as well.
Youall are to wicked! Youall are having my mouth watering as my taste buds are going crazy and my stomach getting hungry. Gonna get my mom and i to try this recipe. Great job!
I love the rolled saheena and I would love that recipe please
I MAKING DIS RIGHT NOW IN CONNECTICUT.... AH MAKE DE MANGO AND TAMBRAN SAUCE LAS NITE... I LIVE FOR 9 YRS IN NY.. CUDDA JUS PICK UP COUPLE ON LEFFERTS.... LOOK HERE NOW NAH I MAKE MY OWN
This is called spinach pakodha dear not sainthood.. bcoz in Saint tamarind juice or lemon juice is added n no Rast is ever added..n for crispy n binded tight saina use rice flour too with little sprinkle of clove powder as well to prevent eMachines in throat area after eating dalo leaves in the sainah
Tia thank you for all your recipes with such detailed makes my life much easier to achieve a much better cook method.
I'm curbing on Ria's sidewalk for a taste of this fritter or for leftovers.
My favourite fried snack..with tamarind chutney👍👍👍
Yummm!! I’m fiji-Indian and my mum would call this bhaijia but call saina the one the is rolled. For bhaijia mum will use chopped spinach but saina has to be taro leaves and has smears the leaves with a spice paste, then it is rolled up.
I'm from Suriname and I don't know bhajija. No one in the family made this vegetarian delicacy. Know saheena and it is also made in Suriname from an urdi spice paste which is spread on a taro leaf. My mother used large taro leaves. She cut off the thick veins of each leaf, so that the leaf was divided in two. She smeared 1 half leaf with the paste, put another half leaf on it, which she also smeared, the top leaf was not smeared. She made a layer of 4 or 5 half leaves and cut pieces across the width of the leaf and fried the pieces in hot oil.
My people my people so proud of you all will definitely try this i miss the taste of my country so much
Thank you so much for posting this awesome video Ria. It looks amazing... lots of love from Toronto Canada

Ria? Can I just say I cannot stop watching your videos. I love your tutorials. One question though…if using frozen spinach, would I thaw it out room temperature or microwave it as instructed on the box?
Thanks! Thaw at room temp is best.
