Fried Bake[edit | edit source]

A freshly made fried bake

Fried bake is a popular type of bread in Caribbean cuisine, particularly in Trinidad and Tobago. It is a staple food item that is often enjoyed for breakfast or as a snack. Fried bake is known for its simplicity and versatility, as it can be paired with a variety of fillings and accompaniments.

Preparation[edit | edit source]

Fried bake is made from a simple dough consisting of flour, baking powder, salt, and water. The dough is kneaded until smooth and then allowed to rest for a short period. After resting, the dough is divided into small portions, which are then flattened into discs. These discs are fried in hot oil until they puff up and turn golden brown.

Serving Suggestions[edit | edit source]

Fried bake is often served with saltfish, sardines, or smoked herring. It can also be enjoyed with cheese, butter, or jam. In Trinidad and Tobago, it is common to serve fried bake with doubles, a popular street food that consists of curried chickpeas sandwiched between two pieces of fried flatbread.

Cultural Significance[edit | edit source]

Fried bake holds a special place in the culinary traditions of the Caribbean. It is a comfort food that is deeply rooted in the region's history and culture. The simplicity of its ingredients and preparation reflects the resourcefulness of Caribbean people in creating delicious meals from basic staples.
