Fish and Chips, Ghanaian-Style
Far be it for me to say point-blank that most Ghanaians eat this classic food this way. Far from it!
Stuck on what to eat for lunch, I decided to make my own by getting the chips from Shoprite, and the fried fish from the local place I buy my sweet potatoes.
Too late to join me, I'm afraid: I'm almost done!;-)

May I ask what sort of fish this is?
I love pics of native foods! Please show more of these. This dish looks delicious. DO you eat the fish with the skin still on? Like the previous commenter asked, what type of fish is it?
So randomly came across your blog (while procrastinating at work)...I like the "fish and chips Ghanaian-style"..it is so true. Traditional fish meets chips that are alien to our diet and coming from Shoprite are a direct product of Globalization and capitalism. Okay, maybe I'm reading too much into it..
Kris--to tell you the truth, I don't know. It certainly is not tilapia fish, which is not only an expensive addition to Ghanaian diet (going for around 7-8 GHANA cedis or around US$8.00-US$9.00), but a popular fish easten by Ghanaians. Just fried fish. Will need to find out more about it!
Sherry--sure, will comply! Yes, we most often do, but it is really people's choice ;-)
Abena--you are not reading too much into it! COuldn't agree more!!!
