What I grew up with was literally just cubing it into 1.5cm pieces, putting it in a jar with some onion and covering with malt vinegar. I can't even remember if we salt and peppered it. Leave in fridge.
Ready to eat after 24 hours, or when it looks "cooked".
We always used firm fish like snapper or red moki.
I know there are heaps of recipes - thats just what we did !
Enjoy :-)

i do mine the same as mouse_y but when i think the fish has been enough in the lemon juice, i strain the lemon out of the fish before i add the coconut cream,,, i just find for me it tastes better doing that way

Never lasts long enough to worry about shelf life

OMG. Why ever not? Perhaps you shouldn't have called it raw fish. In Fiji they call it Cacoda (said kakonda). Lucky me. I raised my family to be open to all foods. They will try anything once if I make it because they trust me and I'll never let them down.

FYI. The fish is no longer 'raw'. The lemon juice 'cooks' it.

It’s marinated is it not? I do a marinates well, but I hate coconut cream so just use salt pepper, lemon juice water and white vinegar. Add in chopped onion and away you go. Using the right fish is key. Snapper is ok, kingfish is great, bluenose terrific. Monkfish good. Calamari is excellent.

I too, do not like coconut cream and much prefer to retain the lemon juice and then add in some finely chopped (almost minced) veg such as red onion, capsicum and seedless tomato. But when I make it knowing others will be eating it, I have to add the coconut cream to cater to the NZ palate.

the samoanblue fiafia coconut cream is the best very unhealthy but the best to use. I soak my fish overnight drain the lemon then add everything else. red onion/coloured capsicum/tomato/cucumber/sprin-
g onion sometimes abit of chilli

Does Samoanblue Fiafia coconut cream also have guar gum as a stabiliser?

Personally I will not purchase any coconut cream with guar gum or any sort of gum in it to 'stabilise' it. Even Chantal and Ceres Organics add guar gum to their organic coconut cream, which makes it not organic. Ceres does make a stabiliser free coconut cream so I get that.

I am at a loss to know what is unhealthy (apart from the added gum) about coconut cream. Can you tell me please why, with only two ingredients - coconut and water, you think it is unhealthy?

I marinate my fish for no longer than 2 hours in lemon juice otherwise the lemon juice is over powering and the fish is quite cooked. There is nothing wrong with mullet or kahawi. I add coconut cream, spring onion, capsicum, cherry tomatoes and cucumber. Yummo!
