Boiled Green Bananas and Cooked Up Red Herring ( A Jamaican Dish)

Prepare the red herring by pouring hot water over it to remove the skin easily.

In a pot, bring water to a medium boil and add salt to taste.

Peel the green bananas using a paring knife, holding them under running water to help remove the skin.

Once peeled, place the bananas in the boiling water.

Squeeze half a lime into the boiling water and add the lime skin to prevent oxidation.

Chop the tomato, onion, and green scallion for the red herring preparation.

Heat oil in a pan and add a fraction of the green scallion to flavor the oil without burning it.

Add the red herring to the flavored oil and mix well with the green scallion.

Add lots of chopped onions to the pan with the red herring.
