     YUMMO!!! Ok I changed a few things... I added a little season salt and pepper to the flour, coconut mix and to the egg I added a little vanilla rum. I live in the Caribbean so I used some of the local rum, as well as local coconut and mahi. EXCELLENT!! Thanks for the recipe! - 7/13/09

     Looks delish, but where is all the sodium coming from? I would like to try this. - 9/3/11

     This was awesome! I used paprika instead of cayenne pepper. I don't have a DH; but I had to share with my cats! LOL....delicious, the sweet coconut flavor is paired well with the fish. I had steamed green beans as my veggie.

     I made this tonight and it was wonderful. It was the first time we had mahi mahi and I'm not a fish lover but this was fantastic. The only change I would make is to use less flour, eggs and coconut. There was a lot left over after dipping, maybe half those ingredients. Thanks so much for sharing. - 4/13/09

     This is delicious! It's restaurant quality and easy to make for one or a crowd. Really impressive for guests, too. I mainly cook for one so buy individual frozen mahi fillets. They thaw quickly and the coconut freezes well so I can make this delicious dish any time. - 10/13/10

     Made this tonight it was awesome! I skipped egg and flour step (too lazy) and added some nutmeg to the coconut (instead of cayenne). I will definitely make again. This reminded me of many meals in Barbados. :D - 9/12/10

     Fantastic! Quite possibly the best thing to happen to fish since fins! This is going to be my new “go to” recipe and I can’t wait to try this on shrimp. THANK YOU for sharing this. - 4/21/09

     Was very tasty, DH enjoyed it also. I didn't chop my coconut and it was a little too much. I would make again, but would try to find unsweetened cocconut and chop it up real fine. - 2/1/09
