Instructions
- Bring a pot of water to a rolling boil and add 200 g cod fillets. Boil for 3-5 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Drain and place the cooked cod in a bowl of cold water to cool it. I recommend using a sieve to save any broken pieces of cod. Gently rub the surface of the cod to wash it, then drain the water and rinse with fresh water.
- Pat the surface dry with kitchen paper and then rub the filets between your fingers to break it into fine flakes.
- Mix 4 tsp sugar,1 pinch salt,1 tbsp sake and 2 drops pink food coloring in a bowl until dissolved.
- Place the cod flakes in a cold non-stick frying pan and pour in the mixture from the previous step. Heat the pan over a low heat and mix continuously to prevent browning.
- Cook until the liquid has evaporated the flakes are mostly dry with a small amount of moisture.
- Use for sushi, rice balls or bento boxes! Enjoy!
