I had the pleasure of working with Linstead Market Jamaica to shoot an episode of the Jamaican food and lifestyle show: Nyammings.
This vegan omelette is creamy thanks to the ackees; holds together well like an egg based omelette from using besan (chickpea flour); and even has a little “eggy” flavour thanks to a special ingredient but is completely vegan!

Indulgent, yet light on the palate and it’s vegan!
Under the black frosting of the Ackee New Years cake was this Ackee Peanut Butter Crunch Cake, it’s a mouthful to say and more than a mouthful to describe in all its yumminess but I’ll do my best; peanut butter lovers rejoice! This one is for you.
This creamy, garlicky, ackee eggplant dip was a “stumbled across” recipe. For the most part I have a list of ideas and work from there but sometimes I’ll have bit of ackee left over from a previous recipe and throw it in to what I’m making and that’s how this dish came about.
Last week I shared my ackee hot chocolate recipe and earlier this year easy ackee muffins with toasted coconut and white chocolate. I love ackee and white chocolate together, it’s just so good!
Some of my other favourite flavours to combine ackee with for sweet treats are coconut, almond, caramel, maple syrup, honey, Jamaican allspice (pimento) and brown butter (See this recipe for Brown Butter Ackee Bread with Walnuts *swoons* 😍).
But I digress, this is about creamy white chocolate ackee mousse atop a toasted cashew sponge with white chocolate glaze and candied cashews 😊. First featured exclusively in Issue 1, 2017 of Jamaican Eats Magazine (click here to it out), you can find the all recipes needed to put together this colourful little showstopper.
