Kate Middleton prepares Bahamian cuisine on final day of Royal Caribbean tour

Kate Middleton likes to cook for her family.

So when the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge visited the Fish Fry (a gathering of stalls and beach huts selling local delicacies) in Great Abaco, Bahamas, the Duchess did not hesitate to join Jade Adderley behind the stall to learn how to make conch salad.

Conch salad is a traditional Bahamian dish made with conch, lime and orange juice, vegetables, and jalapenos (recipe here! . In this photo from the day, Middleton is seen happily chopping the ingredients while chatting with Adelie; according to People, "I'm not as fast as you!" she reportedly told him.

While tasting the concoction, the Duchess also said, "I'm a little more adventurous than William!"

which, according to People, she called "lovely." (FYI, she broke the royal rule of "no shellfish" to sample the delicacy.)

Visiting the Fish Fry, the Duchess wore a beautiful summer dress by Rixo in a funky pink zebra print. Her dress will be restocked in April.

During the day, the Cambridges also visited Daystar Evangelical Church, where they learned about the damage caused by Hurricane Dorian in 2019.

They also met with children living at The Grand Bahama Children's Home in Freeport.

And they also visited Coral Vita, a 2021 "Revive Our Oceans" Earthshot Award winner, which is working to give new life to coral reefs.

The Cambridges' Caribbean tour, which took them to Belize, Jamaica, and the Bahamas, caused great controversy because of the Royal Family's history of slavery and colonialism.

Prince William responded to the controversy on Instagram, writing, "Touring abroad is an opportunity to reflect." He added, "Princess Catherine and I are dedicated to serving. For us, it is not about telling people what to do. It is about using the platform we are fortunate to have to serve and support them in whatever way they think is best."

And on Jamaica's desire to remove the Queen as head of state, the Duke continued, "We have to be very careful about what we do. What is important to us is that the Commonwealth family has the potential to create a better future for the people who form it, and that we commit to serve and support it as best we can."
