Instructions

  1. 1

    Make a stuffing paste: Blend garlic, parsley, and 1 scotch bonnet. Cut pockets in fish fillets and stuff with the paste. Season with salt.

  2. 2

    Heat oil in a large pot. Fry fish until golden on each side, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same oil, fry onion until soft. Add tomato paste and cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.

  4. 4

    Add 4 cups water, bouillon cube, and remaining scotch bonnet. Bring to a boil.

  5. 5

    Add carrots, cabbage, and eggplant. Cook for 15 minutes until vegetables are tender. Remove vegetables and fish.

  6. 6

    Add rice to the tomato broth. Stir once, cover tightly, and cook on low for 25 minutes until rice absorbs all the liquid.

  7. 7

    Mound rice on a large platter. Arrange fish and vegetables on top. Serve family-style.
