Green plantains, finely grated18.7 g
Scotch Bonnet ketchup9.1 g
Garlic, minced2.7 g

Instructions

1

Soak the salt cod in cold water for 24 hours, changing the water frequently to remove excess salt. Drain, pat dry, and shred finely.

2

In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded salt cod, minced okra, grated green plantain, garlic, and diced onion. The plantain acts as the binder.

3

Stir in 10g of the Scotch Bonnet ketchup to infuse the mixture with heat and flavor.

4

Heat the coconut oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat.

5

Form the mixture into small, rustic patties. Drop them into the hot oil and sear for 3-4 minutes per side, until deeply golden brown and the edges are crispy.

6

Remove from the pan, drain briefly on a paper towel, and serve hot with the remaining 7g of Scotch Bonnet ketchup on the side for dipping.
