← Replies in Saltfish Accra Recipe
1. about 2/3 of the salt fish was replaced by plain cod fish to reduce the sodium content of the akara. The fish were cooked together, flaked and finger mashed well.
2. I completely ommited the additional salt as the saltfish was enough.
3. I added more vegetables, finely chopped to help it incoporate well in the batter. It also increased the fiber and vitamin content of the akara.
4. I used extra virgin olive oil in place of the vegetable oil
5. I made a chilli maple dressing which complemented the akara very well. there was no left overs at all.. all gone in a giffy. the children love it.
