Making homemade Patha - a little bit of work but in the end tasted better than ready made!

Hi all
Today we decided to show you how to patha from scratch. We have mentioned previously how the madumbe (taro) plant is so versatile and the entire plant can be utilised. One of the delicious uses for the leaves is of course to make Patha for puri patha. A little bit of a longer method but it turns out delicious at the end! One to give a shot if you have access to the taro leaves.
Ingredients
10 -12 madumbe (taro) leaves
250g chillie bite mix
1 tbs mielie meal/maize meal
3 tbs flour
4 tbs imlee (tamarind)
1/2 cup water to dilute imlee
3 tbs sour milk/maas (or yoghurt)
1 tbs lemon juice
1 tbs vinegar
1 tsp fine salt
1 small onion, grated
1 small tomatoa grated
5 small cloves of garlic
3 green chillies
Crush garlic and chillies together into a paste
1/2 tsp hurdee (tumeric)
1/2 tsp garam masala
1/2 tsp dhania (coriander) powder
1/2 tsp Jeera (Cumin) Powder

    Hello Sweet Mama! 🙏 These are these huge taro leaves which in Mauritius we call brede songe. There are many ways that these taro greens can be prepared and the most common way that we prepare them in Mauritius is to stew them with some light spices, tomatoes and sometimes tamarind. Some people also add chickpeas or brown chickpeas to them.On a sidenote, a little taro leaf tidbit. There is a saying in the Mauritian language that says “dilo lor brede songe” which means “water on the taro leaf” or more precisely referring to the state of being like the taro leaf where water cannot wet it.So, this expression is often used in a situation where for example someone is experiencing some negative criticism that is mostly inflicted out of spite by someone else. This saying serves as a reminder to remain like the taro leaf, that is being unaffected by the situation and be able to rise above it.🥰

    Aunty, I live in Melbourne, and you remind me of home in so many ways. My dad's family lived in Umzinto and my dad taught in Sezela in the late 60s or early 70s. My kaki used to make patha very much like you. I think she added mashed banana to avoid the patha cutting the throat. She used to fold the sides in before rolling to try to make the roll more even in thickness. The way you steamed the patha took me back to my mum's kitchen. She also wrapped a cloth around the lid. IIRC it was from the soft bags that flour came in in the old days. We used to put bricks on the lid to stop the steam escaping. Lots of love and 🙏 🤲.

    This one didn't cut at all. Pranesh is more sensitive to the patha and some can be very hard. I think it is a combination of the vinegar and lemon juice as well as controlling the amount of leaves used and ensuring a thorough steam that makes this one more pleasant to the taste.
