Mahi Mahi Hawaiian Style
"This is a quick and easy dinner solution. This comes from another website. Update: After a number of reviews I have changed the ingredients list. When I made this, I too thought the cloves were strong but DH liked it so I posted. I have since changed the ingredient list and reduced the amount of cloves and nutmeg. Please feel free to adapt as necessary for preference. Thanks everyone for your input."

I agree with Chef Sunflower girl, the cloves (I used the smallest amount) did not blend well. If you use this recipe, I would recommend cutting out the cloves completely. -
We didn't put in the cloves as we only had whole ones and I didn't have time to grind them. I love anything with coconut so this was a good recipe for me, and it was very quick! -
This dish did not work out for our family. It smelled wonderful while cooking but the blend of flavors were not our preference. -
A very easy, ingredient-light recipe! I didn't have ground cloves, but after reading the reviews I decided not to bother buying any. I added a pinch more nutmeg and it tasted great. I'm not sure if you can buy pre-toasted coconut (there wasn't any in my grocery store), so I toasted my own. I put the coconut in the oven when the fish had been in for 10 minutes, and baked them together for about 10 more minutes until the coconut was brown. It smelled lovely and tasted very good. -
Did not care for this recipe at all. The taste of Cloves was overpowering -even after decreasing the amount to a half a teaspoon. Also did not care for the Ginger.Would not try making again.

I came to this site in March of 2004. It was then called Recipezaar. This site was the first on-line site that I ever joined. I first popped in 2003 while searching for a Peach Cobbler Recipe. In March of 2004, DH was having shoulder surgery and I was looking for a Split Pea Soup. Once again I found myself on Zaar as it came to be called.
Over the years I hung out and learned from some of the best home cooks in the country, I posted over 700 recipes on the site, reviewed over 3500 recipes and posted over 3000 food photos. Over the next 10 years the site made many changes and in 2010 it was sold to to Food Network and became Food.com.
Until last year we played games, talked and shared with one another. As a result of the community and the relationships I built I got to meet some wonderful people from all over the country. I also have a great number of friends that I have never meet face to face. Some of us still hang out at various places across the net.
Zaar was more than a cooking community. It was an internet community of friendship. Life is an adventure ever changing.
