Run down, also referred to as rundown,[1] run dun,[2] rondón, fling-me-far, and fling mi for,[3] is a stew dish in Jamaican cuisine and Tobago cuisine.[4] The traditional Jamaican dish is eaten in several Latin American countries that share a coast with the Caribbean Sea.
It consists of a soup made up of reduced coconut milk,[2] with different types of seafood (fish, crabs, small lobsters or shellfish), plantain,[5] yam, tomato,[6] onion, and seasonings.[4][7] Mackerel and salted mackerel[4][8] are often used in the dish. Other fish are also used, including locally caught fish, cod, salt cod, shad,[2] other oily fish,[6] red snapper, swordfish,[9] pickled fish,[10] bull pizzle, and cassava.[11] Traditionally, the dish is served with side dishes of dumplings or baked breadfruit.[5]
Run down is typically available in Jamaican restaurants,[9][12] and is also a traditional Jamaican breakfast dish.[8] It is a common dish in the Antilles, insular Colombia, Honduras, Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua and Venezuela, also.
