Dish inspired by Hawaii

This healthy fish salad is taking the world by storm and is a welcome change to sushi and much more fun than a salad. In Hawaii, it was developed by local fishermen and served as street food, gradually becoming extremely popular with surfers – hence the nickname surfers' salad.
