One of my favorite memories from back home was the smell of my grandmother making Fried Bake and Fried Plantains! Delicious food.
There are many variations to bakes. You can make it with coconut milk, yucca milk, carnation milk, you can fry it or bake it in the oven. You can even make it in an outdoor fire pit.
In Trinidad we would call this Fried Roti, however most people call it Fried Bakes.
The Fried Bakes is used to sop up curries and such. Its basically a roti or naan type of bread. It is delicious with fried shark or fish. In fact Andrew Zimmerman went to Trinidad and he said it was one of the best Fish Sandwiches he has ever had! Good ole Fried Bake and Shark!
