Ingredients
Most ingredients for the most popular dishes are found locally. Fish, such as tuna, wahoo and mackerel are used, and often mixed with a variety of herbs and spices. Curries are made from meat or fish, and are served piping hot with a large amount of spice and often no vegetables at all. One example of this is Pilau. Fruit and vegetables are mostly locally grown, such as pumpkin, coconut and banana. Pumpkin Pudding and Coconut Fingers are popular desserts.

Commends th’ ingredients of our poisoned chalice
