    Made it for the first time and enjoyed. Quick, easy, and filling! Mine wasn’t packed in tomato sauce, so I added tomato and a little ketchup. Thanks! 👋🏾 from Maryland, US.

    I often eat tinned fish (mackerel, sardines etc.) straight from the tin if I'm very hungry, but this fairly simple, very tasty recipe elevates it to a different level. Thank you for sharing!

    The bones are the best part! Very interesting recipe, I'm making this tomorrow. What would this dish be called in Jamaica? I live in the US, but canned mackerel is my favorite fish by far! This seems very similar to a Hawian, Pupu recipe... Don't you think it is?

    • @JerenesEats

    Hi thank you for the video. I am new at cooking so i struggle with timing and heat, do you have a full recipe guide for example maybe written on a website? That explains for how long you cook at each phase and at what heat

    • @JerenesEats
      @JerenesEats  Рік тому +2

      Hi! Thanks for watching. I do not have a written recipe for this yet but hopefully the points below will help ⬇️
      "Saute": Cook quickly in fat over medium heat. As you can see in the video, they weren't cooked till brown.
      "Once everything is smelling nice" : Once the sauteed ingredients are fragrant.
      "Simmer for few minutes": Heat just below boiling point for under 10 minutes.

    For those of you who don't like the bones; in Ontario, Canada, you can find skinless, boneless mackerel and sardines. Recently found the "Sabor do Mar" brand brought back the mackerel. It also offers sardines. I discovered them over 14 years ago. When I can't find Sabaor do Mar, I buy Millionaires brand. Millionaires offer Sardines in water and oil. Can find in No Frills and Superstore.

    • @JerenesEats
      @JerenesEats  5 місяців тому

      Do you like the flavour of those? For some reason I don't enjoy them as much as the ones with the bones and skin

      @paulamclaughlin6562 5 місяців тому

      @JerenesEats Hi. Yes, I do. I also like the size of the fish in the can. I remebered having mackerel as a child and didn't like the bones or skin. It turned my stomach. I was very happy to find the Sabor brand. Never turned back, and I haven't missed skin or bones. You'll enjoy them.
