There is an assumption that food is to label Afro Guyanese ,now the questions are what food should be used to label Indo Guyanese and other ethnic groups.

I would not label it to a particular ethnic group. The majority of coolies eat cook-up rice and plantain chips. In Guyana, we always made cook-up rice. My mother always made plantain chips.

Some indian foods doesnt only require cooking skills. It require surgical skills as well.

Colounjee. U have to cut open the karila. Clean out the guts. Pack it back with bhunjal shrimps. Then, with needle and thread u have to painstakingly sew it up back up. This is a major operation here.

Then u cook it.

Kitchree and Cook up rice (pilau) are two different cuisines.

Anyone like fish? I can get some bangamary, hassa, cuffum and "Gilbakka" from a nearby Guyanese store owner who imports both sweet and saltwater fish. 

One Nation. One People. One Destiny. Remember that.

Very nice dish you are making, Rochelle.

It is early here ... in about an hour or so, I will be cooking rice, chicken curry with varied addition of vegetables.

Had Yorkshire Pudding, Roasted Potatoes, Ceasar Salad and Ice Tea for lunch. Apple Pie with Ice Cream and Indian Chai for desert. 

@Rochelle

I love your menu. Please add the bagamary , my favourite fish. We should wash it down with some chilled  mauby.
