Trinidad's delectable answer to fish and chips...
More info

As the name suggests, in Trinidad this fried fish sandwich is traditionally cooked using blacktip shark, though other types of fish are often substituted. 'Bake' refers to the bread which makes up the sandwich, this can be a fried flatbread, or as here, coconut bake, a simple scone-like recipe that produces a fluffy, mild coconut flavoured bread. As with lots of Trini food it's really the condiments that make the meal - here we've got garlic sauce, tangy tamarind sauce and a fiery lime pepper sauce to choose from. Seasoned fries and a refreshing cucumber chow complete this summery spread.
