ACKEE AND SALTFISH WITH BAMMY AS MADE BY KARAMO AND JASON BROWN RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the bammy: Add the cassava to a food processor and pulse until finely shredded. Transfer to a clean towel and squeeze to extract excess liquid until the cassava is fully dry.
• Transfer to a medium bowl and break up the cassava. Sprinkle in the salt and stir to distribute.
• Heat an 8-inch (20 cm) skillet over medium-low heat. Carefully pour half of the cassava into the pan. Use a silicone spatula to pat the cassava into a disc. Cook the bammy for about 6-8 minutes on each side, until light golden brown..
• Transfer the bammy to a shallow dish filled with the coconut milk and let soak for 1 minute. Do not let soak too long, or the bammy will fall apart.
• Add 1 tablespoon of canola oil to the skillet and carefully transfer the bammy back to the pan. Fry for another 5 minutes on each side, until light golden brown. Repeat with the remaining cassava. Set aside.
• Make the ackee and saltfish: Rinse the salted cod in a bowl with 4 cups (960 ml) of cold water. Drain and repeat twice more.
• Add the rinsed cod to a small saucepan with 4 cups (960 ml) of water. Bring to a boil and cook for 15 minutes. Drain and repeat once more.
• Transfer the fish to a medium bowl. Use 2 forks or your hands to flake the fish into chunks. Set aside.
• Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once shimmering, add the onion, red and green bell pepper, tomato, garlic, scotch bonnet, thyme, pepper, and salt. Sauté, stirring occasionally, for 8-10 minutes, until slightly softened.
• Add the ackee, flaked saltfish, and scallions and carefully fold in to the vegetables. Sauté for 4-5 minutes more, until warmed through. Season to taste with more salt if needed.
• Slice the warm bammies into quarters, then serve with the ackee and saltfish.
• Enjoy!

ACKEE & SALTFISH

Steps:

• Put the salt cold in your pot and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then boil for 5 minutes, drain and add fresh cold water to cover.
• Repeat this process until you're happy with the saltiness when tasted; we recommend to boil the fish three times in total for a perfect balance of salt in the fish. Drain and leave to cool. Use a fork to shred the salted cod into pieces and set aside.
• Now you'll need a large frying pan. Pour the vegetable oil into the frying pan and place over a high heat. Once the oil is sizzling hot, turn the heat down to low-medium. Add the onion, garlic, spring onions and scotch bonnet, then cook until soft, for around 5-7 minutes.
• Add the salted cod, dash in some black pepper, thyme and pimento, then mix it together and cook down for around 3 minutes.
• Next, add in the red and green bell peppers, along with your tomato. Mix together and cook down for 2-3 minutes. These ingredients help to bring a heat balance, so it's not too spicy.
• Now you'll need to add in your ackee and dash in a little more black pepper. Fold in the ackee; the ackee is soft so it's important to fold it in very gently - nobody likes mushy ackee.
• Once folded in, simmer for 3-5 minutes before serving.
