- Опубліковано 12 чер 2016
- Here's a quick and easy Tomatoes Choka recipe. This is a very popular breakfast dish in Trinidad and it's usually eaten with a lot of pepper. Of course you can customize it to your preference. Here are the ingredients I used...
Ingredients:
15 small tomatoes
1 head/ 10 cloves of minced garlic
1 hot pepper, chopped
1 onion julienned or cut into thin strips
1 1/2 tbsp oil to chunkay
salt

Don't apologize for your moms utensils or stove, she taught you now you're teaching us, thank you! you're amazing!!
Just cook, don't worry about comments.
Exactly. Same I was thinking. Forget about the negative comments. Do what you do, the tastiest food usually comes from a happy, well used pot 😊
Agreed
@@KayleAnnLeeCheeThat's right 😉
Thanks for showing different ways to prepare the tomatoes
Your pan is not stained it is seasoned, it when there is a thin layer of oil on the pan, season pans gives you a better cooking texter/flavor compared to a new one. People who bake bread in seasoned pans know how important it is. 😉
when we chonkey tomato when heating the oil add one garlic and a tablespoon of geera seeds and let it burn then add it too the tomatoes it's the best flavors and taste you'll ever experience.
Thanks for the tips, will try that! Sounds good
That’s the only way. Never seen anyone make tomato Choka without chunkaying garlic and geera.
my stove got foil always and its 14 years old and it looks like new still .. so stove looks great and works great no need to get rid of it.. luv your mom style..
Yes my mom says the same thing. She had it since she got married and refuses to part with it lol
I am trini you don;t need to explain!
Caribbean ppl understand everything they see without the explanations ent?
She's explaining for people who needed it!!! She wasn't making the video for you only!!!
Love your step by step, my family love it.
I love the real way about how you do things
Thank you so much for sharing this amazing recipe !
Thank you so much for sharing. I haven't had proper tomatoes choka since my mom passed away 3 years ago. Your video made me cry remembering the times I would ask her to make it for me. #trini2deebone
Awww, I'm very sorry. Now you can make it and remember the good memories you both shared.

Tried your tomato choka and it was just amazing. Just added little bit of black pepper and green chilles for extra hotness. Had it with methi (fenugreek) roti. Awesome.
Great recipe! Thank you.
Thanks for sharing! Going to make this for my husband and father in law now 👍😊
Your videos are fantastic and you have made me extremely nostalgic for the traditional ‘Trini’ food. Don’t apologise for using utensils/ equipment that has produced food worn with love . It adds to the beauty of it all ...
Very good teaching, you explained everything.
this tasted Sooooo yummy in my tummy!!!
Good job I always make it like that it is delicious I am from Trini too
Great cuisine appears to be a result of procedure and elements, and NOT necessarily, the relative condition of utensils used. Fabulous presentation and now I can use your teaching to enjoy some great food. Thank you!

One of my favorite Trinidadian dishes. I’m going to make this dish. Need to find a good roti place here in Miami.
Thank you so very much!!! I am American and I grew-up eating Trinidadian food at least 2-3 times a week because my friend/family were, you got it, from Trinidad. And Tomatoes Choka and Sada Roti were one of my FAVORITE dishes!!!! we lost touch BUT I always craved it, now I can be able to make it... and you made it look simple enough to make! Thanks1
I like your videos about cooking, and I have learnt a lot from you. I am Trini but live in Dallas , TX, and missed Trini food so had to learn to make it myself.
Don’t let those fools that have nothing better to do but post stupid comments, get you down, they are just jealous, keep doing this a lot of us appreciate you.
i enjoy this it was very easy,you make it so simple ,thanks

MOUTH WATERING
Divine food...hehe this and trini fried aloo with hot sada roti!!! Love your version !
a quick trick is also, cutting up your tomatoes in a microwavable bowl, sticking it in the microwave for 5 mins, then mashing them up when it's done. In the meantime I'd be frying onions, garlic, bandhanya, and hot pepper in the oil, then i just throw it all in. I do add a few thin slices of raw onions in the end too :) Feeling for this now actually :)
Nice! Thanks for the tip, will definitely try it when i'm in a rush. Yes definitely, I love fry aloo and hot sada roti!
Hi beautiful. What a nice kitchen! Great recipe 👋💋
Thanks hun!!
yes gal trini to the bone me love my tomato choka keep it up great cooking show neil from chaugaunas

Lol, I will have to try that...good idea. No problem! Yes, please let me know :)
Good job!
Continue ur good works
Yummmmmmm
Yes it was!
I love you and all of your videos😀
Thank you
Mama knows best most the time. Don't mind the old stove,as long as it works.
very good tomatocho
My mom puts foil on the stove as well. Makes it easy to clean
I love rosting them
Luv Tis haven’t had it in a while tho, luv the roast version my husband like when it looks black , my mother in law show me the foil trick so dats how I does it, girl I have foil on my stove too it’s easy clean up lol, my grams makes d boil version dey both taste great but I jus luv d roast one an I does put it in a mini chopper after with skin an all, I doh chunkay mines cause it burns my chest dat way it still taste good tho I like to dip d roti in it I doh like soggy food , gosh I feel I goin to see if I have tomatoes in my kitchen 🏃♂️
Yes trini
hi , can you do some recipe on cooking soya ( curry , stew etc ) being a veggan i find it very difficult to get .
looks soo yummy!!!! Just to add, whe we do our choka we roast the garlic and pepper in a separate foil. Then we mash everything together and chunkay with the onions. It adds more smoke flavour.
Thanks, yes that's also an option as well. I like to roast the garlic and pepper as well but sometimes when I roast the pepper, it burns my stomach. It's delicious either way :)
You just made me hungry. 😅😅😅
lol sorry 😅😅
Your mom is smart! Old or new stove, great idea. I should cover mine with foil when my husband is cooking. His food is amazing but the stove clean up I can't stand!
So true! The foil makes it so much more easy to clean
Real gud
Is there a difference in flavor between roasting and boiling the tomatoes?
I don't care about ur stove or the pot....Continue doing ur thing and thank u
It’s okay for your pot girl 👍🏼
Tasty
i think all we trini put foil on our stove tops. love this i roast mine if it dont have some chared bits its not choka. the roti too some chared bit here and there yummy that way. my son and our puppy hates the chared roti though. love this as always bye until next time
Yes of course, I love to leave some of the charred skin as well. Thanks for watching!!
Yummmm👍

The pan is well seasoned.
Oh Gorm ah going to try dat now!!!!!!!!!

So glad to hear! Thanks for trying it out!
👍🏼
I foil my stove as well. Easy cleaning!
Yes true!
Hey there. I see this is a few years old and maybe you got to know this already. The pan, you say isn't dirty, that oil "stains the pan" it's called Patina or seasoning :D
And you Moms old stove
JUST GREAT 🌻✅✅. Right up my street being a vegetarian. How about the third way. Microwave! ✅LOVE YOUR COOKING ❤️❤️🌻🌸
❤️
Mannnnn! I literally just came on UA-cam and this is the first thing I see. I haven't even started watching the video. You're killing me😋 (BTW here's a little side info, your channel is the only one I post comments on. Geeze, and it's because of food. I might have a problem)
Lol Thank you for that! No girl, i'm obsessed with food too. You can always blame it on the baby :P
+Taste of Trini I can't! I was like this before the baby😂 I already have 4 kids, this 5th one seems to love our West Indian food as much as I do🤗
+Holly Lol well that's a good thing that the baby likes West Indian food.😃
I usually add everything together..garlic onion pepper ..after I have "stewed " the tomatoes on high...and the oil I use is olive oil ..then I re heat everything together on high for a 2 mins
Sounds good!
Looks very delicious. We in India call it tomato chutney.
Thanks! Nice, so it's similar to ours?
nice indian dish
nice video, but try turning down the music a bit lower
You are a bad ass 💪🏽🇹🇹 gyal!!
Thank you!
Can I bake it?..(the tomatoes)
I wish i would have food with you all
Sometime it’s sour how u can make it sweeter
my mom dose the same thing with her stove, that help it stay clean.
Yes, very easy to clean up
Ur Pot looks good its call a cooking pot. It's clean :)
Excellent recipe) Signed) welcome)
Thank you
LMAO. Aye, I know the struggles. The stove in my apartment is abt 30yrs too. I had to use two bottles of CLR to get it looking decent. Cyah put foil on it because it's electric.
Oh wow
