POISSON CRU A popular dish served throughout
the islands, poisson cru (marinated fish) is a
perfect light lunch or refreshing appetizer.
The recipe is simple, and the results delicious:
cube raw tuna or bonito and marinate it for ten
to thirty minutes in lime juice, until it’s just
“cooked.” Mix with minced tomato, grated
carrot and chopped onion. Blend with
unsweetened coconut milk. Bon appétit!
