Pholourie

Pholourie, also spelled phulourie or phoulourie, is a snack food commonly eaten in Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana and Suriname. It consists of fried, spiced dough balls that are served with a chutney.

The dough is made up of flour, ground chickpeas, water and spices. Depending on the recipe, garlic, chili, turmeric, saffron, onions and/or cumin are used. Then dough balls the size of golf balls are formed and fried afterwards. The fried balls are usually served with a chutney to dip them in, usually tamarind or mango. Alternatively, yogurt can be used as a dip.
