The gutsy flavours of smoked paprika and cumin go well with salmon, fresh tuna (skipjack and albacore both get the green light from Forest & Bird) or game fish such as trevally or kahawai (amber rating). If using tuna or game fish sear the kebabs very quickly so the fish stays really rare–that way it will be buttery and tender inside. Ready in 20 mins.
