Serves: 4-5

Ingredients

• 1 Can Coconut milk
• 1 Cup water
• 2 lbs pickled boneless mackerel
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 3 stalks escallion, chopped
• 3 tomatoes, chopped
• 1 Scotch Bonnet pepper
• 3 sprigs thyme

Soak the mackerel in a pot of water overnight to remove most of the salt. If the mackerel is still very salty, boil in water for 20 minutes. Drain mackerel and cut into small pieces.

Boil the coconut milk and water in a heavy frying until it looks like curdled custard and oil. Add the mackerel, cover and cook for 12 minutes on medium heat. Stir in the onion, garlic, escallion, tomatoes, scotch bonnet pepper and thyme. Lower the heat and simmer for 10 more minutes.

Best served with boiled green bananas and dumplings.
