How to make MF Jerk Cod

 

Good morning everyone, we hope you all had a good Friday as easter this weekend commences. Yesterday for many was a strictly fish-orientated day and the MF Team wanted to show you guys some of the dishes that were made with fish as well as (of course) MF Products. One of the recipes we made was Caribbean jerk cod. It was fairly straightforward to make and tasted absolutely divine. Good Friday has been famously associated with fish due to the fact that it’s believed that Jesus was executed on that day as a way of sacrificing his life for humanities sins and on the day of his death it was fish that was eaten which explains the existential abstention of meat on this day by many Christians. Now many of you probably want to know how to make Jamaican Jerk Cod for future fish dishes. Here’s how:

Ingredients:

-          4 boneless, skinless cod fillets

-          2 teaspoons olive oil

-          2 tablespoons of MF Jerk Seasoning

-          Zest and juice of 1 lime

-          275 grams of basmati rice

-          150 millilitres (1/4 pint) reduced-fat coconut milk

-          1 large avocado, peeled and chopped

-          1 spring onion, chopped

-          1 chilli, chopped

-          Crush black pepper

-          Sea salt

Method:

1)      Marinate the cod fillets in the olive oil, MF Jamaican Jerk Seasoning, lime zest and half the juice. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 hours.

 

2)      Pre-heat the oven to 180C, 350F, Gas Mark 4 and cook the cod fillets on a lined baking tray for 10-12 minutes, until cooked through.

 

3)      In the meantime, pour the basmati rice into a pan, add the coconut milk, cover, and cook on the hob for 15 minutes on a low-medium heat, until the rice has been cooked through (you may need to top up with water if the coconut milk dries out before the rice cooks).

 

4)      Cover with the rest of the lime juice, spring onions and chilli. Stir, season to taste and serve with the cod.

 

Now it’s time to enjoy your delicious MF Jerk Seasoned Cod!

Does coffee help with headaches?

Good evening everyone, its another blog by MF Products and today we’re going to be looking at something slightly different. Today, the MF Products Team was riddled with headaches and someone asked “I wonder if there’s a drink that could resolve this pain” which got us thinking. Since coffee, especially MF Coffee (which is available to purchase now), has so many benefits maybe there’s a chance it can cure headaches too. Here’s what we found. We realised that when your head hurts or aches, people generally want a fast relief as the pain can be tedious. Caffeine is usually found in many painkillers and has statistically shown them to be 40% more effective with caffeine as opposed to without it. Actually, there are reports that the consumption of caffeine has even stopped the pain directly after. Which begs the question, could MF Coffee resolve your headache? Headaches can usually occur due to inflammation of the brain; caffeine’s main superpower is to reduce inflammation it does th...

Benefits of pimento (also known as allspice).

Before we get into the benefits of pimento, at MF Products UK we believe we must look at a foods history first and learn about its origin. So, without further ado let’s look into pimento which is also known as allspice. The pimento tree is indigenous to the Caribbean Islands. It was found growing in Jamaica by early Spanish explorers who were quite impressed with its tantalising taste and aroma of the berries and the leaves. Pimento trees were then later discovered in Cuba and were presumed to have been taken there by migrant birds who had eaten the berries. They have also been found in Mexico, but it is Jamaica that has the longest history, having been in continuous production since the tree was identified in about the year 1509. The name Pimento originated from the Spanish word "pimienta" which meant ‘peppercorn’. To most English-speaking people the tree is called "pimento" and the berries "allspice". The name allspice originated from the widespread n...
