👨‍🍳 作り方

1
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat.
2
Add sliced onion and sauté until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
3
Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.
4
Pour in the coconut milk, add the Pohnpeian pepper and salt. Stir to combine.
5
Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer. Be careful not to boil vigorously, as it can cause the coconut milk to separate.
6
Gently add the fish pieces to the simmering sauce. Ensure the fish is mostly submerged.
7
Cover the skillet and let the fish poach in the sauce for 10-15 minutes, or until cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time will vary depending on the thickness of the fish.
8
Stir in the fresh lime juice just before serving.
9
Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro and serve hot, typically with steamed rice.
