Trini Aloo Pies with Lisa & Stacy on Delicious Delicacies (DeliDeli)

butter

🥗Healthier: coconut oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Coconut oil adds a subtle flavor and is dairy-free.

scotch bonnet pepper

💰Cheaper: jalapeño

Jalapeño provides heat but is milder and more accessible.

all-purpose flour

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

Whole wheat flour increases fiber content.

potatoes

🥗Healthier: sweet potatoes

Sweet potatoes add sweetness and nutrients.

Prepare the filling by mixing pre-boiled and mashed potatoes with garlic, shadow benny, ground cumin, and salt.

Knead the dough by mixing flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar, then gradually add water until a dough forms.

Let the dough rest for at least 30 minutes.

Divide the dough into small balls, flatten each ball, and place filling in the center.

Fold the dough over the filling and squeeze tightly to seal.

Heat oil in a pan and fry the pies until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes on each side.
