Kokonda - Fijian-style Raw Fish

Overview

Fish Kokoda (pronounced Koko-n-da) is a Fijian dish made by marinating fish in coconut milk. The taste can be described as close to sashimi, only much tastier!

Fish Kokonda Ingredients

  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • Fish fillets (I used Rockfish)
  • Pinch of salt
  • Half an onion, diced finely
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 1 small cube of ginger
  • 2-3 medium chillies
  • 1 can low fat coconut milk
Directions
  • Marinate fish fillets in half a cup of lemon juice for 5 hours
  • Mince garlic, ginger and chillies in pestle or blender
  • Discard marinade and cube fish
  • Mix fish with salt
  • Add minced garlic, ginger and chillies
  • Add diced onions and coconut milk and mix well
  • Serve with boiled taro and salad
