Next, you’ll grate fresh coconut to extract natural coconut milk, which forms the base of the dish’s signature sauce.
As the sauce simmers with onions, peppers, and garlic, the aromas fill the kitchen with rich Caribbean fragrance. You’ll gently cook the fish in the creamy coconut mixture until it becomes tender and flavorful. To complete the meal, you’ll prepare classic Dominican sides including cassava, plantains, and rice.
