Corned Fish		  
Contributed by Khasheka 
 
1 or 2 medium sized fish
2 tablespoons oil
1 creole hot pepper
2 tablespoons pepper vinegar		 3 tablespoons of butter or 
     margarine
2 onions, sliced (medium 
     thickness) 
juice of 1 lime, strained
Prepare the fish by heavily seasoning it with salt and pepper and placing it in the sun to dry.  The next day soak the corned fish over night to remove most of the salt.  Boil the fish for about 10-15 minutes with a few cloves, garlic, a stalk of celery and a sprig parsley.  In a sauce pan sauté the onions and hot pepper in the oil.  Add about 1 cup of the water the fish was boiled in, lime juice, pepper, vinegar, and the butter. Simmer a few minutes and add to the fish.   

A cream sauce could also be used.
