I am Trini and no disrespect to the Jamaican lady but curry and roti is two different things. She kept going on about the burning etc, that is not roti but the filling you put in it. Roti is the actual flatbread. In Trinidad we do various types- breakfast roti is usually Sada eaten with a vegetable talkarie* Dhalpurrie is usually wrapped with curried or stewed meats and a side & Paratha(buss up shut) is broken up so dipped into the curries and veg. Popular at weddings & celebrations such as Divali. It has others like Dosti, pepper roti etc but the top 3 are the most common.

And its Trinidadians who first sold roti and curry wrapped up for workers in Trinidad, so blame yourself. Selling Indo originated food at restaurants and take out places is a more recent thing in Guyana, except the snack which were always sold at the roadside by any race.

That's why we know a thing or two about roti, and it would've been justified to include a Guyanese person in the video. That's all...

Also, having Indo-Caribbean people in this video would also be great, they are the reason why roti was brought to the Caribbean in the first place.

Thank you!...every story has to have a villain.😉

Now I want some roti. I’m very impressed by this episode, because i still can’t make a perfect roti. I’ve been practicing for years . I consider myself a pretty good cook, I love to eat, I learned how to cook from my Caribbean mother, aunts, and grandmother because I would not stay out of the kitchen. I almost caused an emergency trying to make scrambled eggs one Sunday morning when I was two, because I was hungry and my parents weren’t getting up fast enough...that’s how much I love food...and I can’t make perfect roti by any means. I commend each and every one of them, they all looked excellent.

y'all couldn't find not one Guyanese?

Antigua in the building for once🥳🇦🇬 but even I was wondering why his roti looked like it had grilled chicken and was dry🤣

Aye all yuh roti is a blessing anyhow you can get it. I noticed no one did a dhalpouri roti. Where all my Trinbago ppl! Trinidad! Where my ppl? lol Blessings!

Jamaican ppl can mek Roti but nuh really mek Roti more than so. Trini & Guyanese probably mek it the best💯need a part 2🇬🇾🇹🇹

That isn’t the Trinidadian flag. Would love to see it corrected to the actual flag which is this : 🇹🇹

Why are ya'll so vague with grouping all Caribbean people together. You get Roti from someone from Trinidad/Tobago or Guyana. Full stop. If tried what some other islands try to call Roti and..... no. Also, we have different kinds of Roti. And why do you use so many Americans to represent Caribbean countries?

I've been to Jamaican too many times to count and I'm Guyanese. Roti was not the thing that kept me going back. Plus, who says you have to eat Roti with anything? Roti is dish by itself, then you can add whatever side dish you want to eat it with. Y'all need a part two with the real Roti connoisseurs.

I love when the Caribbean is represented, but I hate when our diversity isn't. This is the reason why when I say I'm not Indian, bur caribbean, I'm not believed. I'm disappointed that not atleast 1 indo-caribbean person wasn't included in this. Also, disappointed Guyana was not included in this.

This needs a part two. When I think Roti, I think Guyana and Trinidad. Doing a Roti video without them in it, especially the Indian ones, is like doing a jerk chicken video without Jamaicans. This get a pass cause of the mixed girl who let her Trini friend help her. Jamaican roti look banging though, but as others, from Trinidad and Guyana said, roti is just the name of the flat bread, it can be made in many ways, some without curry.

What flag did they have for Trinidad in the beginning???? Whichever country that represented was not Trinidad. This is the flag for Trinidad and Tobago 🇹🇹

Slight tip: if your curry isn't thick enough, remove the shrimp from the sauce and continue to cook the sauce down then add the shrimp back in.

I had no Idea indian food is so well traveled...very interesting.

Get a Guyanese person to bring their roti!

Claude was a big time hater. He loved the roti then rated it low because he didn’t want it to outscore his. Smh. People like him don’t belong on the show.

How about a full blooded Trinidadian next time. I already knew the young girl wasn't about to rep my country right 😆

This was SABATOGE. EVERYBODY KNOW TRINIS GOT THE BEST ROTI!. Daena said 7 BUT she KNEW it was a 10. And y'all see how she was gonna steal the pumpkin recipe too. What Sprangalang say "Jamaicans make a lovely jerk, BUT TRINIS GOT THE ROTI CORNERED!"

I’m glad the girls felt like both of their dishes were good❤

We put that delicious layer of seasoned split peas in the center. It's a pain to roll without popping but omfg it's amazing. I'm shocked that the roti itself doesn't have that split pea center tbh. It's rare for me NOT to see that but maybe because I'm used to home cooked roti I should add that my mom side of from trini.

No Guyanese tor competition, I call shenanigans

I trust Addis opinion of Daena’s roti than Claude since she is actually half Trinidadian.

This video did not give what I thought it was going to give lol…every island has their thing and roti belongs to Trinidad 🇹🇹. A lot of the “Caribbean” island videos don’t really highlight other islands. I love Jamaica, but come on, since when they specialize in roti over Trinidad?!

As a Guyanese I’m not understanding how they conflated “roti and curry” with just “roti”….not one roti was clapped making this

I agree.....even though my roots are Jamaican, I think the Trinis and Guyanese have us beat on this one, although growing up a neighbor of ours who was Jamaican Indian, made a real good Roti.

How come they never put Guyanese🇬🇾 on this show roti is a Guyanese think and we are from the Caribbean too. I just finished making roti too🙄
