Tahitian Fish Salad Recipes

POISSON CRU OR E'IA OTA (TAHITIAN LIME-MARINATED TUNA)

Poisson Cru or E'ia Ota (Tahitian Lime-Marinated Tuna) image

If you like sushi, you will love this! This famous Tahitian dish is similar to Latin ceviche or Hawaiian poke. It differs primarily in the addition of coconut milk, which softens its flavor. Poisson cru only marinates very briefly so the lime juice doesn't have time to "cook" the inside of the fish. The Tahitian name for poisson cru is e'ia ota. The same dish is called oka i'a in Samoa. I included the resting time in the prep time. Enjoy!

Time 30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounts highest-quality fresh ahi tuna, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/2 cup lime juice
1/4 cup coconut milk
1 small cucumber, peeled, seeded, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 tomatoes, seeded and diced
3 -4 green onions, chopped
sea salt
fresh ground pepper

Steps:

Mix all the ingredients together in a large, non-reactive bowl and set aside to marinate for 10 to 20 minutes.
Drain excess liquid and adjust seasoning. Garnish with some freshly chopped green onions and serve in a decorate bowl or large clam shell.
NOTES: Make sure to use very fresh, high-quality fish for this dish. Such fish is often marked "sushi grade" in the market. Use other fish - halibut, snapper, swordfish - if you like.
Other possible additions: cubed red peppers, grated carrots, diced red onion, minced garlic.
Sometimes a pinch of sugar is added to take the edge off the acidity.

POISSON CRU (TAHITIAN CEVICHE)

Poisson Cru (Tahitian Ceviche) image

If French Polynesia had a national dish, it would surely be poisson cru. It's on nearly every menu in the country and in a way its flavor defines Polynesia - sweet, refreshing, tender and exotic.

Time 15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 lb fresh yellowfin tuna fillet, cut into 1 inch cubes
3/4 cup fresh lime juice (a mix of both would be good, the lemons or limes shouldn't be too sour or bitter) or 3/4 cup fresh lemon juice (a mix of both would be good, the lemons or limes shouldn't be too sour or bitter)
2 tomatoes, chopped
1/2 small onion, minced
1 cucumber, diced
1 carrot, shredded
1 cup coconut milk (canned is OK but fresh is best)
1 green bell pepper, thinly sliced (optional)
spring onion (optional)
parsley (optional)

Steps:

Take the tuna chunks and soak in a bowl of seawater or lightly salted fresh water while you chop the tomatoes, onion, cucumber, carrot and bell pepper - (locals swear this makes the fish more tender).
Remove the tuna from the salt water and place in a large salad bowl. Add the lemon or lime juice and leave the fish to marinate for about five minutes.
Pour off about 1/2 to 2/3 of the juice (depending on how lemony/limey you like it) then add the vegetables and toss together with the fish.
Pour the coconut milk over the salad and mix again. Add salt and pepper, to taste. Garnish with chopped spring onion or parsley and serve with white rice.
