Introduction
The first time I ate Caribbean food was a lucky accident. I found myself out and about with kids who needed feeding. They would have eaten the leather off their shoes if I hadn’t found something fast. I was run ragged, lugging three enormous bags and three moody children in the rain, so when I spotted a little Caribbean café on the corner, there was no hesitating, though the smells alone would have been enough to entice me in. We ordered far more food than planned and came back out with very happy stomachs! We then visited that café every week for a long time afterwards, hungry for more. I have tried using the same flavours in my kitchen and have found many variations that work, such as this delicious fish.
