Instructions

1

Soak the salt cod in cold water for 2 hours, changing the water twice to remove excess salt. Drain, boil in fresh water for 10 minutes until tender, then flake into bite-sized pieces.

2

Peel the green plantains and slice into 1-inch rounds. Boil in salted water until tender, about 12-15 minutes. Drain and keep warm.

3

In a large skillet, heat the coconut oil over medium heat. Sauté the onions, garlic, and minced Scotch Bonnet until the onions are translucent and fragrant.

4

Add the flaked cod to the skillet and toss for 2 minutes to toast slightly. Fold in the callaloo and cook until the greens are wilted and tender, about 5-7 minutes. The dish should smell earthy and vibrant.

5

Taste and adjust seasoning with a pinch of black pepper. Serve the hot salt cod and callaloo alongside the tender steamed plantains on a warm plate.
