Process
Soak the mackerel in water overnight to remove the salt. If the
mackerel is still very salty, boil in a pot of water for about
20 minutes. Drain the mackerel and cut it into small pieces.
Add the mackerel to the rundown, cover and cook for about
14 minutes on medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, tomatoes, scallion,
scotch bonnet pepper and thyme. Stir in all ingredients. Lower
the heat and simmer for 10 more minutes.
Best served with boiled green bananas, yam, cassava, sweet
potatoes and cassava dumplings.
