Saltfish Accra (Saltfish Fritters) | Taste of Trini

  • Saltfish Accras (also called Saltfish Fritters) are a popular appetizer in the Caribbean. This recipe demonstrates how it is done in Trinidad and Tobago. This is mainly served as an appetizer at weddings, parties or limes (gathering or get-together). It is most popularly served with Tamarind Chutney. I prefer a Bandhanya or Shadon Beni sauce.
    Here's what you will need:
    3/4 lb or 12oz of Salted Cod (Saltfish) or Bacalao, washed and boiled twice
    1 1/4 cups of All-Purpose Flour
    1 cup of Lukewarm Water (more or less depending on the humidity of where you live)
    1 Onion, diced finely
    1 teaspoon Salt
    8-10 Bandhanya/Shadon Beni/Culantro/ Recao leaves, chopped finely
    1 tablespoon of Celery Leaves, chopped finely
    1 tablespoon of Green Seasoning
    1 Scotch Bonnet Pepper, finely chopped
    4-6 Pimento Peppers, finely chopped
    1 teaspoon of Yeast
    1 teaspoon of Baking Powder
    1/4 teaspoon of Sugar
    5 stalks of Scallion, chopped finely
    Oil to fry
    Fry on medium-high heat for 5 minutes or until golden brown on the outside.

    Excellent video. The ingredients are very delicious and pleasing to the eye. Nuff respect. Glad you stated that we all do it differently and can still respect and honor your Trini traditions. Big up yuhself...🇯🇲🇺🇸 from a Jamerican.

    Saltfish fritters were the very first Caribbean food I ever ate, in my friend's home in Nottingham in 1971. His parents came from Jamaica in the 50's, and his mum was a great cook. I have to give these Trini accras a try now!

      That might have been the first thing I cooked with my group in my secondary school days during food and Nutrition practical. Somewhere along the way, because I don't think any group member paid close attention to the recipe, we realized that saltfish fritters were actually accra .lol. IKR? Most call it accra or fish cakes in my country.

    Love your videos. That was awesome. I love learning how to make all this food that I miss so much that my mom used to make back in the day when she was still alive. I have and idea how to make them, but every time I try, it never comes out the same. So now I am starting to see all the little missing steps that I need to get the great end results that you do. Thank you so much for the videos and the information.
