ackee and you know what

[ackee]

Price of canned ackee will depend on where you live.Here in NA, its the only way to go...canned . Unlees yu brought some frozen ackee back from jamaica. Here in Toronto , its no prob to go thru customs with frozen ackee. I will share the recipe with you. I cook it quite iften and it costs about $5.oo here on sale

INGREDIENTS :
•1/2 lb. Saltfish (codfish)
•1 can ackee ,open can and drain water from the can
•1 small onion
•1 teaspoon black pepper
•1 sprig tyme
•1 crushed garlic or 2 teaspoons garlic powder
•3 slices hot scotch bonnet pepper
•1 small red sweet pepper
•cooking oil

1.Rinse salt from saltfish and boil in water for 5-7 minutes.
2 Rinse the ackees with some boiling water. Ackees are already cooked. No need to cook them again but I like to rinse them once more with hot water. The ackees get steamed further while yu warm them up with the onions and saltfish
3..Pour off hot water from saltfish and rinse in cold water so you will be able to handle it.Pick up (flake) the saltfish and remove all bones.
4. Add the oil and sauté thinly crushed and chopped up garlic ,sliced onions and sweet pepper rings.
5, Fold in the flaked saltfish to the sauteed mix
6 Fold in the ackees gently, and turn the fire/stove up to medium , Be careful not to mash up the ackees
10.Add black pepper
11.Pour in to serving plate and Enjoy with cooked "food,Hard Do bread or dumplins
