Jamaican Callaloo, chopped250 g
Green Plantains, peeled and sliced92.9 g
Onions, raw, finely diced40 g
Garlic, minced10 g
Coconut Oil8.7 g
Scotch Bonnet Pepper Sauce15 g

Instructions

1

Begin by soaking the salt cod in cold water for several hours (or overnight), changing the water twice to reduce saltiness. Drain, flake, and discard any skin or bones.

2

Steam the green plantain slices until tender, about 10-12 minutes; they should be firm but yield easily to a fork.

3

In a wide skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Sauté the diced onions and minced garlic until translucent and fragrant, about 3 minutes.

4

Add the flaked cod to the skillet, stirring to incorporate the aromatics, and cook for 5 minutes until lightly golden.

5

Toss in the chopped callaloo. Cover the pan for 2-3 minutes to allow the greens to wilt down, then uncover and stir until the moisture has evaporated.

6

Finish with a generous splash of Scotch Bonnet pepper sauce to taste, folding it in to coat everything evenly.

7

Serve the cod and callaloo alongside the warm steamed plantains. Garnish with a squeeze of fresh lime if available for brightness.
