We have been gifted some lately and other than youtube videos, haven't come up with any great ways of preparing it.
We asked at PKS today, who also sells it (40 pesos a kilo today) how to prepare it, and they gave the same directions as youtube.
Marinate, simmer in liquid for upwards of 10 minutes, then saute or BBQ. Good, but there must be a better, fresher way!
Suggestions, please?

Ask Leto. A number of years ago I went fishing with her son. We caught a female with eggs. That night she prepared them as an appetizer to go with the fish. It was a wonderful meal. I believe that they were sautéed in garlic and oil

FYI: Just wanted to point out that dorados caught with roe are supposed to be released. Any decent fishermen should be able to distinguish the bulls from the females, and the females with roe show a noticeable swelling.
Un saludo.

From what I have been reading, literally all female dorado, once they hit about 4 months of age have eggs in them. Is this true? No telling.

Sounds about right. The species only lives to 5 or 6 years old.

Spawning season is close here. Yes, it is easy to see the diff between Bulls from cows. The problem is getting a decent one released without killing you, or the dorado killing itself.

A mature Mahi lays about 250,000 eggs every other day. only a few make it to maturity.
