Ingredients
- 150 g cod or white fish of your choice (see in post for suggestions)
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 2 tsp mirin
- 3 tbsp cornstarch
- neutral cooking oil for frying, generic cooking oil
- green onion optional garnish, finely chopped
- sesame seeds optional garnish
Teriyaki Sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp mirin
- 2 tbsp sake
- 2 tsp sugar
- 2 tbsp dashi stock (optional) omit if you don't have dashi
- 1 tsp honey
Instructions
- Cut 150 g cod into large bitesize pieces and place them in a bag with 2 tsp soy sauce and 2 tsp mirin. Marinate in the fridge for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, start heating the cooking oil to 180 °C (356 °F) for shallow frying or medium for regular pan frying. While you wait for it to heat up, sprinkle 3 tbsp cornstarch onto a plate and coat the cod pieces generously all over.
- Once the oil is heated, place the coated cod pieces in the pan and fry for 2 minutes on each side or until golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oil and transfer to a wire rack to let the excess oil drain off.
- In a separate pan, add 2 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp mirin, 2 tbsp sake, 2 tsp sugar, 2 tbsp dashi stock, and 1 tsp honey. Mix well and turn on the heat to medium-high.
- Once it starts bubbling, add the fried cod pieces.
- Gently stir to coat the cod and cook until the sauce thickens to a syrup-like texture. Once thickened, remove from the heat.
- Serve and drizzle any leftover sauce over the top. Garnish with finely chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
- Enjoy!
Notes
- I've used cod in this recipe, but it works well with most white fish or salmon. See in post for alternatives.
