Method

  1. 1

    Fry the sliced onion and crushed garlic in a little oil for 5 minutes, then add the finely chopped scotch bonnet chilli and cook for 1 minute.

    Cut the tilapia into chunks and add to the pan, cooking for 3-4 minutes on each side until it flakes easily and is cooked through. Set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same pan, add the callaloo and cook for 5-6 minutes, stirring often, until wilted and tender.

  4. 4

    Meanwhile, cook the rice in plenty of boiling water for 10-12 minutes, then drain.

    Serve the fish and bhaji over the rice.
