Guyana Pholourie Split Pea Fritter

Guyana Pholourie

Pronounced pho-lo-ree is a delicious treat made from split pea.

This is a clear Indian influence in the Guyanese cuisine. They are spicy and have the flavors of India with curry and other seasonings.

They are best eaten right out of the fryer and awesome dipped in Mango Sour a Mango chutney.

A perfect beginning to our Guyanese meal as these are a very popular street food there.

Often times you will see them perfectly round, a unique way to drop the dough into the pan using your hand.

I was chicken to try it and used a small ice cream scoop. They came out great, just not perfectly round.
