Mahi-Mahi (also known as dolphinfish although it is not related at all to dolphins) is a Pacific Ocean variety that is easily available in Colombia’s coastal towns. The large whole fish are usually cooked in plantain leaves since this is the easiest way to handle them in the sandy places where it is seasoned with simple ingredients and then cooked to peak flavor over wood.
