Cook Islands

Ika Mata 
(a very, very traditional snack/appetizer, similar to Mexican
Ceviche, or Fijian Kokoda)
*amounts of onions and tomatoes to taste

-2 lbs. fresh fish
-onions, finely chopped
-tomatoes, finely chopped
-several lemons - you'll need enough juice to barely cover all cubed fish
-6 oz. coconut- cream

1) Slice the fish into small cubes, place in a bowl and marinate with
the lemon juice until fish turns a white color.
2) Add finely chopped onions and tomatoes. Mix well and pour the
mixture over the coconut cream. Note: do not let the mixture get too
cold as the coconut cream can become hard. Serve.
