What is a normal Jamaican meal?
The national dish of Jamaica is Ackee and Saltfish. Most people in Jamaica like to eat this combo as a breakfast dish. Ackee is a fruit that grows locally on the island and it is a must try! The dish is served with dumplings that are either fried or boiled. The saltfish is cooked in a small amount of oil with peppers and onions. Another popular dish is hot porridge for breakfast as well as a boiled banana. Boiled bananas are starchy and no longer they have their sweet taste but are often served with meals. Fresh fruit juice is also common, my favorite that I tried was a carrot- ginger blend. Also some famous jerk chicken served with a side of rice is a popular dinner that you can find almost anywhere.
