Sprinkle the seasoning mixture on both sides of the fish and inside the slits.

Chop fresh garlic, thyme, scotch bonnet pepper, tomato, and bell pepper.

Heat oil in a pot until it reaches 350 degrees.

Fry the fish for about 10 minutes, turning gently after 5 minutes until golden brown.

Remove excess oil from the pot and add chopped garlic to the remaining oil.

Add chopped vegetables and a pinch of black pepper, sautéing for 3-4 minutes.

In a separate container, mix 1 cup of water with ketchup and a few drops of brown sauce.

Pour the mixture over the fish in the pot and squeeze one lemon on top.

Cover the pot tightly and let it cook for 10 minutes on medium heat.
