Mélanie and Simon came to Wantonwells Farm in Insch as volunteers, originally hailing from France. For March's Food Chain, Mélanie and Simon shared how to make Accra and and Rougail Saucisse, two island dishes originating from Martinique in the Caribbean and Réunion in the Indian Ocean respectively. They shared these recipes inspired by their time living in Martinique where Accra is a well known food served in bars and restaurants over the island. Often ordered with ti' punch, Martinique's national cocktail, Accra is prepared with salted cod, but we'll be making a vegetarian alternative too. For Mélanie and Simon, this meal represents sun, zouk music and good vibes!
