Roasted breadfruit and fried jackfish

Short description: This plate pairs a starchy roasted fruit with crisp whole fried fish, usually balanced by citrus and a small hit of pepper sauce.
Ingredients: Breadfruit is roasted until tender and served with fried jackfish, lime, garlic, hot pepper, salt, and oil.
Cultural note: Breadfruit became a staple after its spread through the Caribbean; paired with local fried fish, it is treated as a celebratory national plate and a marker of island food identity.
Common misconception: Breadfruit is not a loaf of bread; once cooked, it behaves more like a starchy vegetable.
