salt fish

🥗Healthier: whole wheat flour

💰Cheaper: all-purpose flour

Whole wheat flour adds fiber and nutrients.

💰Cheaper: brown sugar

Honey is a natural sweetener but can be more expensive.

Mix 2 cups of self-rising flour with a pinch of salt.

Add whole milk gradually until a dough forms, mixing with hands until sticky.

Let the dough rest for at least 20 minutes.

Chop the vegetables: medium-sized tomato, green bell pepper, white onion, and crush garlic with a garlic press.

Leave the scotch bonnet pepper whole to avoid too much spice.

Prepare the salt fish by frying it in 2 tablespoons of oil.

Add the ackee to the fried salt fish and mix gently.

Fry the dumplings in oil until golden brown.
