Recipes Savoury Marinated Raw Fish

Marinated Raw Fish

This is a popular dish throughout the Pacific Islands and a great choice for a light summer meal. The lemon juice ‘cooks’ the fish and turns the flesh white, then coconut milk adds flavour and moisture.

Always a favorite for our family and friends. Great starter for any seafood meal.

Great recipe. We used fresh tuna which did not turn white. (Tuna is pink) Previously I did a recipe from a neighbour but I didn’t drain so lemon juice and salt stayed in the bowl. I’ll comment once we get to eat it tonight.
