"The first time I had fish kama was at a sushi restaurant. Our friend was the chef, and he unexpectedly gave us it for free. I have never had it before, and I am a picky eater. I didn't want to be rude, so I took a few bites. It ended up becoming one of my FAVORITE cooked pieces of fish! You can find Hamachi Kama all over Hawai’i, but my favorite is King Salmon Kama, which may be more readily available on the mainland. "

 

INGREDIENTS:

½ lb Hamachi Kama. One per person, depending on the size you can find.

Salt, Pepper, and Garlic Powder are measured with your heart.

½ Cup Ponzu Sauce

½ Cup Cut Green Onions

 

DIRECTIONS:

 

1. Brush olive oil evenly on the fish kamas.

 

2. Season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.

 

3. Airfry or bake at 450F for 8-12 minutes till the thickest part of the kama hits an internal temp of 125F. My favorite is to grill on direct heat and flip continuously till the thickest part of the kama hits an internal temp of 125F.

 

4. Garnish with cut green onions, and douse our dip with ponzu sauce.
