Traditionally, breadfruit was brought to the Caribbean by Captain Bligh during the 18th century as a staple food for enslaved people. Today, it remains a symbol of Caribbean cuisine, celebrated for its versatility and unique flavor. Roasting enhances its natural sweetness and creates a delightful texture, making it a favorite among locals and visitors alike.

Place the breadfruit in a cooking tray and put it in the preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for 1 hour.

5

Check if the breadfruit is done by seeing if the 'X' is open and if a knife goes through easily.

Let the breadfruit cool, then peel and slice it into half-inch thick slices.

Heat canola oil in a clean saucepan over medium flame.

Fry the breadfruit slices until golden brown, turning them over to fry both sides.
