About Trinidad doubles

Trinidad Doubles are a popular street food from Trinidad and Tobago, featuring soft, fluffy fried flatbreads called bara, filled with curried chickpeas (channa) and topped with tangy chutneys and condiments like tamarind, cucumber, or pepper sauce. This dish originates from Indo-Trinidadian cuisine, blending South Asian and Caribbean flavors. Doubles are vegan by nature, high in fiber from the chickpeas, and contain plant-based protein, making them a nutrient-dense option. However, the fried bara can be calorie-rich due to the oil content, which may be a concern for those monitoring their fat intake. Doubles are typically served fresh and warm, delivering a balance of spicy, savory, and sweet tastes. While they are a delicious treat, moderation is recommended for those aiming to maintain a healthy diet. This beloved Trinidadian staple showcases the island's rich culinary heritage in a convenient and affordable bite.
