Hey i saw your recipe for pine tart. and damn yours looks like the ones that are SOLD ! After that i had to explore your site.
geez it makes me so hungry… xD
i was wondering if you have the recipe for rice pudding or kire [ key-ear ]
ha forget my spelling and look at the pronounciation. =P
OH OH and pouloree and bara… again with the spelling but i’m sure you know what i mean.
Jehan! Wow. What can I say, you almost bring tears to my eyes, girlfriend. I’ll be filing away all of these recipes, you hear me?! I cannot proclaim myself to be a cook, but I am one of those types who will learn a few things, repeat them over and over and make them well… Guyanese patties-my specialty! I was online punshing to try and explain to a Trini friend how to make patties, but not just your average “run a de mill” patty (see North American commercialized Jamaican patty-sorry, but it’s the truth!)… no, I’m talking about the best patty there is (if you’re a Guyanese)-GUYANESE STYLE PATTIES! Right down to the lovely pans, I see that you have used… you captured my recipe perfectly, so it was as easy as right click, copy and paste! My only addition to your recipe since I like my patties hot is MIRI WIRI (or wiri wiri) pepper… gott have a few of those in there too for extra KICK! THANK-YOU for the inspiration… please update us on the business and you must be tinkin’ bout a cookbook?! Say yes, and I’ll be your first customer! There is hope yet for me to be “MCC-Meshelle Can Cook”! Cheers, my friend.
Author
Thank you for all the great compliments. I know exactly how you feel about Guyanese recipes and that is the reason why I started this blog. Keep visiting my blog, I plan on posting more authentic Guyanese recipes from time to time.
Your dishes look amazing. Do you make pulouri balls. Not sure how to spell it. My Gran used to make them and serve with Tamarind dipping sauce, I would love to track down a recipe.
Hey J,
Great job. i love the photos
Author

Kavita
Author
Thank you so much…but unfortunately I have never had snails so I don’t have a recipe for that. I’m slowly making my way through all these recipes by finding, creating and testing new old and old recipes so crab curry is soon to come. Keep visiting.
Im having a hard time finding recipes for White and Black pudding you seem to have great recipes and wonder if you have recipes for those. It would be awesome if you did =)
I was looking for the cheese rolls and came across your site. I immediately bookmarked this site. I LOVE it! You have so many delicious recipes and you explain the instructions very well! I will definitely be making many of these recipes. Thanks!
Jehan first let me say you make me proud to be guyanese! I have been searching for recipes for awhile now, and I was so happy to find this blog. I have written down and book marked for the future. I am making the spongecake as I type. I just moved to atlanta and I cannot find a guyanese restaurant. You have saved the day I will be surprising my mom when she comes next week to visit by making her fav the patties. I sure hope you write a book or open a restaurant! BTW do you have a recipe for mittai.
Instant bookmark! Thanks for an awesome site. Guyanese food is very tasty and you make it look as good as it tastes.
I after the first recipe I knew I had to bookmark this site. I love, love, love pholourie… do you know how to make the tamarind sauce?

Oh my goodness, thank you so much for the website. My parents are Guyanese and I’m away at college missing this food so much and now I can actually make it for myself!
I’m so happy to find your website! I came to Canada with my parents when I was a little girl. I love and crave the Guyanese food that I grew up with but my Mom didn’t keep up the traditional cooking. I’ve asked my dear aunt for recipes but can never get any straight measurements. I’m not that good in the kitchen but can’t wait to try some of your recipes.
Is your pholouri recipe the same as “bara”?
I have to say, I’m impressed with this website and its recipes. My parent’s have been trying to find a good recipe for cheese rolls for awhile and your pine tarts look divine!
Hopefully in the future you can put down a recipe for Black cake and the icing in here, I’d love to see how yours comes out.
Thank you for spending so much time on this, I know that when I’ll have to be on my own, I’ll have the recipes somewhere to remind me of home.
I’m so happy I found your website, I’m a 24 year old young female who taking a different turn in life maturing into a young lady and I want to learn how to cook, well better and new recipes, Seeing your pictures has inspire me sooo much you don’t even know you are the replica of the women I want to mature into. Keep it up and congrads on the baby!
Love your page! My husband is guyanese and thanks to you I have been able to prepare dishes that he loves. I did have one request, his mom bakes bread every Christmas and I’ve noticed that you posted picture of it in your pepper pot page. Can you please post recipe for that bread. Thanks!! And congrats on the baby!!!

I wanted to know if you know the name of The thing Guyanese people Make with ripe banana. Here in America most would call it a banana fritter. But I know there is another name for It… Please help
Author
Tayla I don’t think I’ve heard of it…I will definitely be asking around about this.
A Guyanese Chinese recipe opened up over here on Grant and Glenmore. They sell some delicious fried rice and chicken. Very similar to Bamboo Gardens on Avenue L and 95. However, I waked in there and asked how much for just di fried rice alone and them tell me si $6 dollars. They just opened up so they have a system where they don’t pack the food up to the top of the container. You paying a whole lot of money and not getting enough food. Now…I need to know if you have a recipe for fried rice with bora, carrots and them thing dah? Tiffany I am with you.
Author
I have promising a fried rice recipe and it will be coming soon!
I am so excited to have found another fellow Guyanese with fabulous recipes! It’s so hard to find a good recipe out there when you’re in search of the delicious foods you grew up with.
What brand curries do you use? I am so excited about this blog. I have order your friends cook book as well.
Author
Hi Quiana, I usually us a brand found at the Indian store called Chatak. Thanks for stopping by.
Hello Jehan,
I’m also Guyanese and would like to say that your website is just excellent. My sons always wanted me to make pine tart but never know how to. Many Thanks to you and the internet, I followed your recipe and it came out just perfect, no more buying lol. For anyone wanting to try this recipe, you will have no regrets. My sons always ask me how come the Guyanese people can make such excellent food, what makes us so different from the others. I would always reply, thanks to your Mothers, Grandparents and Yourself who always try new ways to make food tasty. I would like to try making Cassava Pone could you please sent me the recipe. Keep up the excellent work.

Hi Jehan, do u have the recipe for banana fritters (guyana’s name Gogola)
Author
I do, will post soon.
Jehan,
You’re a Godsend. I’ve been struggling as a single man /pretend cook for years. My sis-in-law is extremely good but having found your site, I’ve surprised her with a couple of things. When she ask ‘How did you know how to do this’, I reply ‘A girlfriend taught me’. My goal is to master recipes from each category and live with that. I think that will be enough for me to show off with. By the way– fro someone of your talent, a cookbook is a must. GO FOR IT. Wish you were in my area of UK, I woul d propose straight away. God Bless!
Author
Thank you so much! I’m happy to hear that you are enjoy my recipes and rocking it in the kitchen. A cookbook is on the list!
My grandmother cooked the best Guyanese food, but she’s passed and all her recipes were in her head. This has been a great resource for rediscovering the food I grew up with. Already looking forward to using your pepperpot and garlic pork recipes this Christmas. Also, my grandmother used to make what she called Portuguese pancakes. Do you have a recipe for those under a different name? Maybe that was only made in the Portuguese community? Thanks!
hi good afternoon i have learned so much from you thank you could i have a video on how to prepare pickled pork maybe your mom knows
Hello Jehan,
your recipes are on point. I love looking at your videos and love trying your recipes. Sometimes when I don’t know what to cook all I have to do is get on your page and before I know it .. I’m making lots of dishes from one of your blogs or videos. Thank you. You are so talented .
