What you need to make run down - Salt mackarel, coconut milk and seasonings like (onion, pepper, tomatoes, garlic, escallion, thyme and black pepper)


Soak mackerel
Saute onion, pepper, tomato, garlic and escallion in a saucepan then
pour in Coconut Milk and thyme and black pepper and let cook for about 3-4 minutes. Add soaked mackerel and cook until coconut milk becomes oily or looks like custard.

Its because you havent had it before. It is a very very delicious meal, as for the name i have to research y it is called that. It looks a little strange though because of the coconut milk but once u eat it with some dumplin... my my wat a dish. Oh yeh watch who cook it cuz some people love to use salt... and the blasted salt mackerel already salted

Not sure how to describe it Arch, but it's very nice. It's made of salt mackerel and cooked up with coconut milk and seasoning. Hmmmm ...
