Last year, while visiting Hawaii, Uncle Johnny made the most amazing fish tacos with slaw. I asked him to make them again this year so I could record the play by play to share with you all. Now bear in mind, a lot of frying goes on, but once in awhile it's alright to splurge. Uncle Johnny is a cook that loves to improvise and add his own flavor to recipes that he finds online and on the Food Network. He also has a plethora of original recipes from Portuguese Fried Rice to the Edamame Salad. The recipe for the fish tacos and slaw comes from the Food Network courtesy of Emeril Lagasse, and he uses another recipe for slaw found on the All Recipes website to add a little variety. The recipe calls for trout, but Uncle Johnny uses fish that can be found locally like mahi.
