1 lb whitefish, very fresh, skinless and boneless, cut into 1/2-inch cubes (cod, snapper or halibut is suggested… keep in mind that it must be fresh!)
1 teaspoon kosher salt
Juice of 2 limes
1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
3 scallions, chopped
1 cup canned coconut milk
1/4 cup peeled and chopped white onion
Garnish:
Toasted sesame seed
Place the fish in a stainless-steel or glass bowl. Mix salt and lime juice and toss with the fish. Allow to marinate for 4 hours in the refrigerator. Remove and drain the fish. Add the remaining ingredients and toss well. Chill again before serving. Garnish with sesame seeds.
