About Kokoda
Peter Kuruvita presents this kokoda from his experience running Flying Fish Fiji. His Fijian version combines diced raw fish with lime juice and coconut cream, with snapper selected from the offered fish choices.
Red onion, green chili and tomato join the fish, with cracked black pepper and salt as seasonings. Coconut cream supplies the rich dressing, and coriander sprigs finish the dish.
The small fish pieces and diced vegetables remain together in the coconut mixture. The author suggests chips alongside; this profile selects cassava chips as an optional accompaniment, leaving their separate recipe unspecified.
