In Rurutu we get less tuna, and more wahoo (an excellent steak fish), and of course there's also mahi mahi another meaty fish with delicate white meat. But there are also the smaller fish that we eat - carangue, and parrotfish from the lagoon, or flying fish that are caught as they fly out of the water with 'butterfly' nets! Fresh grilled flyingfish with coconut milk and taro is pretty hard to beat, unfortunately it has a lot of bones, but the flavor is really excellent. I've always wanted to go out fishing for flying fish, it just sounds kind of fun to scoop them out of the air....
There's really nothing like a good bit of fresh raw fish, here's a delicious plate of wahoo carpaccio with a papaya dressing....et bon appetit!
