Ingredients:
1 Can of ackee, drained
1/2 lb boneless (boiled) salt cod fish
3 tablespoons oil
2 onions, sliced
1 small bell pepper
1/4 scotch bonnet pepper skin finely chopped
1 small tomato, chopped
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
Soak the salt cod in a pot of water overnight to remove most of the salt. If the cod is
still very salty, boil in water for 20 minutes drain cod and cut or break into small pieces.
Heat oil in a frying pan. Add the onions, scotch bonnet pepper, tomato, and bell peppers.
Stir for a few minutes add the cod. Stir simmer for 5 minutes, then add the can of drained
ackee. Do not stir because this will cause the ackee to break cook for a few two minutes
then sprinkle with black pepper.
