Saltfish Buljol

Ingredients

• 8 ounces salted cod fish
• 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 onions, chopped
• 3 tomatoes, chopped
• 2 red bell peppers, chopped
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1 pinch red pepper flakes
• 6 leaves lettuce
• 1 avocado – peeled, pitted and sliced

Directions

To remove excess salt from the fish, bring the fish to a boil in a large pot of water. Drain the water, and repeat the process. Drain the fish, flake, and press liquid out.

In a large skillet, saute oil, onions, tomatoes, and peppers for 2 minutes. Mix in flaked saltfish, lemon juice, and hot pepper. Cook mixture at a low heat until the moisture has almost completely evaporated.

Pile the mixture into the center of a serving dish, and arrange lettuce and avocado around it.
