I remember as a kid eating this meal

as one of our Sunday's 

morning breakfast  feast

after we get back from church.

1 pack of dry salted fish

1 Onion

4 Garlic heads

Vinegar

1 tbsp of green seasoning

1 medium Tomato

1/2 of a lime/lemon

Finely chop onion,garlic and tomato


Cooking

Place fish in a pot cover with warm water

Boil until water turns white with foam

Remove from heat

Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a large skillet

Add onions,tomato and garlic

Stir occasionally

Cook on medium heat until onion
