Slice the onion and set aside.

In a food processor, blend Scotch bonnet pepper (do not add tomato).

In a pot, add vegetable oil and the blended pepper mix, then add the sliced onion.

Cook the onion and pepper mix for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring to avoid burning.

Season the mixture with salt and fish seasoning, then add the cooked fish to the pot and stir.

Allow the mixture to cook for an additional 3 to 5 minutes, then set aside.

Cut the plantains in half and place them in a pot with the skin on, adding a little salt.

Cover and boil the plantains until the skin starts to separate from the flesh, indicating they are ready.

Remove the plantains from the pot and let them cool slightly before peeling them off the skin.

In a skillet, add a little water and heat it up, then remove the water to prevent sticking.

Add the vegetables (optional onion) to the skillet and stir continuously to avoid burning, cooking for 3 to 5 minutes until reduced in size.

Remove the vegetables from the heat to prevent them from wilting.
