Indeed you can , I am a raw vegan in kingston , Jamaica . I always hated how the local dish was prepared . Being vegan , I stopped having the dish served to me growing up - that would be ' ackee with salted fish ' . i graduated to parboiled then seasson with natural spices , since going raw , I would have gourmet ackee dishes or vegan burgers. Always feeling that dehydrating and/or adding oils to the fruit was not to my liking , so I decided to try making my own raw ackee dishes .
At its full ripeness the ackee should be picked , cleaned , perhaps marinated in fresh tomato juices - or not , at room temperature , they become soft and quite edidle ( can be had as is ! 0 . Chop one small onion into small pices , 3 large scotch bonnet peppers , add up to 20 pieces of raw ackee or as desired , mix the ingredients , sprinkle on cayenne pepper to taste & enjoy ! One good idea is to get fresh lettuce leaves , place above mix in leaf and fold - voila : ackee taco > All vegan , all raw ! healthy & safe !
