Ingredients

• 3 lbs fish (use a fresh whole mild white fish, gutted, scaled and head removed)
• 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
• 1/2 onion, chopped
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 chili pepper, minced

Preparation

Step 1

Prepare the grill, preferably a charcoal grill. Grill the whole fish until it is cooked (the flesh flakes easily with a fork).


Meanwhile add the coconut milk, onion, salt and chili pepper in a bowl.


When the fish is cooked, pour the coconut milk mixture over the fish to thoroughly soak it. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes to absorb the milk mixture.

Serve with cooked rice.
