Ingredients
  • 32.6 g salted cod fillet
  • 28.9 g black beans
  • 12.9 g garlic
  • 7.3 g coconut oil
  • 15 g mayonnaise
  • 15.5 g scotch bonnet pepper sauce
Method
  1. 01Soak the salted cod in cold water for several hours, changing the water periodically to desalinate. Boil for 10 minutes, drain, and flake with a fork.
  2. 02In a bowl, mix together the flaked saltfish, mashed black beans, and minced garlic until cohesive.
  3. 03Shape the mixture firmly into two small patties.
  4. 04Mix mayonnaise and scotch bonnet pepper sauce together in a small ramekin to make the aioli.
  5. 05Heat coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering.
  6. 06Gently place patties in the pan and sear for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until crisp and golden brown, ensuring the fish center reaches a safe temperature of 145°F (63°C).
  7. 07Transfer cakes to a plate and drizzle with the scotch bonnet aioli.
