Out Of Paradise - Episode #32

Superwoman

This is Easter weekend and the fasting has broken, with the feast of Good Friday. As always food is at the heart of every celebration in Trinidad and Tobago and once is true for this weekend. We have two public holidays, Good Friday and Easter Monday to fill our bellies with the delights of the day.

So sit back and enjoy the recipes of Easter!
I love you all. Bless up!

On Good Friday, the menu is often fish, fresh or salted, served with boiled ground provisions. In contrast, Easter Sunday lunch is elaborate, with hams, baked pork and roast chicken. Hot Cross Buns are also a traditional Easter treat. In many communities you may also see the traditional beating of the Good Friday Bobolee, an effigy symbolic of Judas Iscariot, the disciple who betrayed Christ. Easter bonnet parades and Easter egg hunts are also quite popular.

-Hot Crossed Buns -

Early Good Friday morning the smell of your kitchen at home should be filled with the aroma of hot crossed buns fresh from the oven, to be enjoyed with one of our many fish dishes, which are two examples below.

Trinidad Stew fish

Trinidad style stew fish. I fried the fish, because it was a fillet which is soft and easily broken up. when making this dish, using a steak fish like snapper u would not need to fry the fish first! this is very tasty! (this is usually made during lent and good Friday.)
