Quantities are estimated based on standard recipes for your convenience. The actual ingredients used in this video are accurate.
saltfish
🥗Healthier: smoked mackerel
💰Cheaper: canned tuna
Canned tuna is more affordable and provides a similar texture.
olive oil
🥗Healthier: coconut oil
💰Cheaper: vegetable oil
Vegetable oil is often less expensive and works well for sautéing.
Soak saltfish in water overnight to remove excess salt.
Drain and rinse saltfish, then boil in fresh water for 15-20 minutes until tender.
Remove saltfish from water, cool slightly, and flake into pieces, removing bones.
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat until shimmering.
Add chopped onion, bell pepper, and garlic; sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Stir in thyme, black pepper, and scotch bonnet pepper for flavor.
Add chopped cabbage, grated carrot, and diced tomato to the pot.
Mix well to combine, then add a splash of water to create steam.
Cover and cook for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until cabbage is tender but still vibrant.
Add the flaked saltfish and mix gently to combine.
Cover and steam for an additional 5 minutes to heat the saltfish through.
Remove from heat and squeeze fresh lime juice over the dish before serving.
