Method

  1. Heat a conventional oven to 200 °C. Peel the plantain, slice it on the diagonal about 1 cm thick, coat it with half the oil and bake on a lined tray for 20 minutes, turning halfway, until golden and soft.
  2. Meanwhile peel the carrots and cut the carrots, onion and peppers into thin julienne; put them in a bowl.
  3. In a small pan heat the cider vinegar with the allspice, sliced chilli, a pinch of salt and a couple of tablespoons of water until simmering; pour it boiling over the vegetables and leave to stand.
  4. Pat the tilapia dry, salt it and press it into the cornmeal.
  5. Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat and cook the fish for 3 minutes per side, until golden and crisp and flaking inside.
  6. Cover the fish with the vegetables and their hot liquid and serve with the plantain.
