How to Make Fijian Fish in Coconut Milk (Lolo)

Let’s make Fijian fish in coconut milk today.

This meal comes from my Fijian friend Amelia. She was kind enough to cook this very simple yet absolutely delicious meal for us. I highly recommend you give this one a try. You are going to need a meaty, white fish fillet such as Catfish, Mahi-Mahi or Cod. You can usually find frozen Mahi-Mahi fillets that are not expensive. You play it by ear and see what you can get for a good price.

Here is what you are going to need for this:

Serves two

2 meaty white fish fillets such as Mahi-Mahi, Catfish or Cod
8 oz. coconut milk – or less
1 TBS sliced white onion
1 – 1/2 inch piece ginger – peeled and sliced thinly
1 TBS chopped tomato
1 TBS chopped scallion greens
1/2 tsp. salt

Place fish in a pan and add enough coconut milk to reach it half way. Add the onion and ginger. Bring the pot to a simmer and cook for about 10 minutes – until fish is cooked through.

Add the tomato and scallion. Bring back to a simmer and cook for about 30 seconds. Remove from heat and serve.

Serve with boiled sweet potatoes and lime wedges. Enjoy!
