This is about soul food, particularly from Trinidad. Somewhat of a collection of recipes, tips, tricks and specials to share with everyone. Hopefully my kids would be able to read and enjoy this blog when they are older as well :)

Quick chutney
Nothing goes better with a fried treat than our local chutney. Whether it's mango, pomcythere, tamarind, coconut or bandania. Sometimes you may want to fry-up some pholourie as an afternoon treat or you may have unexpected guests (or you just want an easy way like I do sometimes). A quick chutney dipping sauce can be made without the hassle of preparing fruits. All you have to do is whip out some jam/jelly from your pantry and you have two ingredients in one.... fruit and a whole lot of sugar. My preference is guava jam but any jam would work.
What you need:
1/2 cup guava jam
6 cloves garlic
3-4 cooking peppers(pimentoes)/ habanero to your liking
3 leaves bandania
1 tsp salt or to taste
1 cup hot water
All you have to do is put it all in your blender or processor, blend it all together and you're done. :) Of course you could prepare it using a good ole' cutting board and knife, then a whisk to incorporate everything. Let it cool to room temperature before serving.
YOU'RE WELCOME!!! :D
Remember, don't let your kitchen intimidate you... you're the boss!
