Stuffed Flying Fish

Cultural Context

Stuffed Flying Fish is a beloved dish in Barbados, often enjoyed during festive occasions such as Crop Over, the island's harvest festival. The dish reflects the island's rich maritime culture and the importance of fishing in Barbadian cuisine. While traditionally made with flying fish, variations exist using other local fish. Today, it is celebrated not only for its flavor but also as a symbol of Barbadian culinary heritage.

1

Remove the heads and spines from the flying fish, leaving the fillets intact.

2

Prepare a seasoning mixture with chopped onions, garlic, sweet pepper, marjoram, basil, and a little salt.

3

Marinate the fish with the seasoning mixture for a while.

4

In a saucepan, add 1 teaspoon of butter, then add chopped onion, sweet pepper, and cabbage.

5

Sauté the vegetables over low heat, tossing them until they look limp and weak, indicating they are cooked.

6

Take the marinated fish and place some sautéed cabbage on top, then roll it up and secure it with a toothpick.

7

Prepare an egg batter with 1 egg and mix bread crumbs with flour in a separate bowl.

8

Bread the fish by rolling it in the flour and bread crumb mixture, then dipping it in the egg batter, and rolling it again in the bread crumbs.

9

Heat soybean oil in a frying pan until hot, then carefully place the breaded fish into the oil, ensuring it sizzles upon contact.

10

Fry the fish for about 2 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
