I spent an afternoon making Bammy from scratch following a traditional recipe. Getting coconut milk right was the main challenge — it's not as straightforward as it looks. The fiery and aromatic result was rewarding once I got it right.

ackee is legally restricted for export when unripe due to toxicity — an unusual national dish ingredient. I served it with ginger beer as the recipe suggested and the pairing made sense. It took longer than I expected but the outcome was genuinely satisfying. Making Bammy yourself gives you a new appreciation for what goes into it at a restaurant.
