Boil the breadfruit until tender.

Drain and let cool, then peel and mash the breadfruit in a large bowl.

Add onion, salt, and pepper to the mashed breadfruit; mix well.

In a separate bowl, combine herring fillets with adobo, diced bell peppers, habanero pepper, and parsley; mix thoroughly.

Form the breadfruit mixture into small patties, about the size of your palm.

Place a spoonful of the herring mixture in the center of each patty and fold over to seal.

Press the edges to ensure they are well sealed.

In a frying pan, heat oil over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry the patties for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown.

Remove from oil and drain on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
