The bara is one of the most famous Surinamese Hindu snacks. They are deep fried rolls that are heavily seasoned. In addition to flour and spices, ground mung beans (‘oerdi split’) and sliced tajer leaf or spinach are also used. It takes a while to make the baras, but the result is impressive!
Originally, the bara comes from India, but it is now also part of Suriname’s heritage. You can now also find them in the Netherlands. Usually in the toko, but also at festivals or events, the baras should not be missing.
i am filling them up with kerry chicken and pickled cucumber
