  • Hi everyone! Here is the pastelle recipe that most of you saw on snapchat and wanted the recipe! Sorry it's so long. Pastelle is found on every Trini Christmas table. Here is my take on it. The ingredients you'll need are:
    A few fig or banana leaves
    2 lbs of minced chicken
    1 tbsps coconut oil or canola oil
    2 heads of garlic or 20 cloves, minced
    10-15 pimentos, chopped
    1/4 cup of chopped chive or scallion
    a few sprigs of thyme
    1/4 cup chopped bandhania, culantro or shadon beni
    1 onion, chopped finely
    1/2 cup celery, chopped
    1/4 cup of parsley, chopped
    1/3 cup ketchup
    a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce
    2-3 hot peppers, chopped - depending on your preference
    salt
    black pepper
    For the cornMEAL dough (usually Promasa CornFLOUR is used)
    -2 cups of cornmeal
    -3 cups of hot water
    -5 tbsps butter
    -2 tsps salt

    Christmas is in less than 3 weeks....and I am back to this lovely recipe for my pastelles:) Although I marinate the minced meat a night before making them and add capers and olives.....this recipe is also wonderful. Happy times!!!

    in Puerto Rico we also have pasteles but the dough is made out of green bananas, pumpkin and malanga(different name) but its raw and we boil it . delicious! i love trini food since i grew up in the virgin islands you find roti shack with delicious food. i also visited trinidad years ago. love the culture & we share similarities in cuisine.

    The Masa Repa you used is actually the brand name of the corn flour and is exactly the same consistency as the Promasa which is also a brand name as well as PAN or Dona Repa and any of these can be used for pastelles. They are all processed by precooking which is different from the regular cornmeal you use for coo-coo or cornbread.

    I have a up coming party, I was wondering when wrapping the pastel in the banana leaves would it be okay to wrap it again with saran wrap then foil for steaming I have a great problem cooking with foil.

    • @TasteofTrini
      @TasteofTrini  7 років тому

      Well when the heat gets in contact with saran wrap it's going to melt, so I would suggest using a bigger piece of banana leaf and wrap it completely so that nothing gets into the pastelle
