I love all types of Caribbean food. It's hard to pick a favorite. What's not to like?! That being said, I'm partial to patties and peas & rice, so I'd probably have to go with Jamaican. Plus I love the ginger beer and sweet cakes!

These are some great recipes:

JAMAICAN FRIED JERK FISH RECIPE

Ingredients:


2-2.5 lbs farm raised trout. (Farm raised trout is recommended because it is fleshy and the bones are soft. However, any whole small fish or filets will do.)

1 heaping teaspoon Walkers Wood jerk seasoning or equivalent brand

1 tablespoon of vegetable oil

1 and 1/2 tablespoon mushroom soy sauce (from China) or equivalent

1 teaspoon of vinegar (omit if you are using farm raised trout, which is soft, since the vinegar tends to soften fish. Vinegar also enhances flavor and helps to keep odors low)

After you have washed fish, cut in two inch pieces going from long end to long end.

Mix jerk seasoning, oil , soy sauce and vinegar (if needed) in small bowl

Drain all water from fish

Work the seasoning mixture into the fish (You can fry fish right away or let marinade)

Place enough oil in fryer or deep iron skillet to at least cover a half of the height of the fish

When oil is hot place fry fish for 3 minutes per side or until fried
