FIJIAN - KOKODA

This recipe was taken from a South Pacific web site for the ZWT-7 tour of the South Pacific. This is a traditional Fijian fish dish that is prepared with mahi-mahi, a white flesh fish. It is a very simple dish to prepare, you will need to allow ample time for marinating. Please note that the cooking time is marinating time (6 - 10 hours).

KOKODA (FIJIAN SPICY FISH)

This is another of my Fijian friend Veri's traditional fare from Fiji - a group of islands in the south-west pacific, north-east of Australia. This fish dish is a Fijian favorite and utilizes common ingredients of the islands. It is the Fiji version of ceviche. Serve it with a fresh fruit salad.
