recurve Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Went for Reds and ended up catching three Bonnies. Sent two back as not sure how to cook them. Kept one as decided maybe they could be good as Kokoda. Kokoda is fish cubes partially cooked in lemon juice mixed with raw veges and coconut cream. It's amazing. Cut fish into cubes 1-1.5cm. Salt and cover in fresh lemon juice. Leave for two hours. Take 3 tomatoes and remove the seeds and liquid. Do the same to a cucumber or two as well as a capiscum. Cut up super small and put aside. Chop half the red onion up super small as well. Season well. I rinse the lemon juice off the fish and Pat dry. Put in a bowl and add all the chopped up bits. Then add over half a tin of coconut cream. Season to taste. If kids are not involved then red chillies also go well. This is devine and to my delight, works well with Bonito. Kingfish is best but Bonito was very good. Crusty bread and Kokoda, BAM!! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerialangler Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 (edited) Thanks for this idea in the past I would just keep bonito for bait but this inspired me to try it and yes it was great- added some other fresh veggies like corn and coriander I let the bonito fillets set in the fridge over night to make sure they were nice and firm for cutting into the smaller pieces didnt rinse the the lemon juice off and was still ok Also had some for sashimi Edited July 9, 2019 by Aerialangler Add pic 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guest123456789 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Looks delicious thanks for sharing. Could you warm it up a put in a hot tortilla? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
recurve Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 Awesome so glad someone tried it. Yours looks very good too. Coriander is a master stroke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BabyShark Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Kokonda is one of my favourites, even better with chilli. If you like Japanese food, fresh bonito sushimi is lovely also. Thinly sliced, and I like it dipped in a paste of soy sauce and wasabi mixed together. But I think I'll go kokonda next time bonito comes my way.
