Ingredients
- 1 pound salmon fresh
For the marinade (see note 1):
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 cup rice wine
- 1.5 tablespoons sugar
For the vegetables:
- 1/2 onion small
- 1 green chili pepper or 2 green and/or red chili peppers
- 1/2 lemon
Optional garnish and condiment for serving:
- onion thin slices
- lemon thin slices
- microgreens baby sprouts
- wasabi Japanese horseradish
Instructions
- Bring all the marinade ingredients to a boil over medium high heat and briefly boil for a minute or two. Cool completely.
- Thinly slice the onion, chili pepper(s), and lemon.
- Cut the salmon fillet into small pieces (about 1/4-inch thick and 2 to 3 inch long).
- Place the salmon in an airtight container. Add the chili pepper, onion and lemon slices. Keep it in the fridge while waiting for the marinade to cool.
- Pour the marinade over the salmon (see note 2). Refrigerate. The salmon is ready to eat after 4 to 5 hours, but it will be better the next day and best to consume it within 2 days.
- How to serve: You can simply serve it as a side or main dish with a bowl of rice. Or, serve it on top of rice as a rice bowl (deopbap). Garnish it with optional thin slices of fresh onion and/or microgreens or baby sprouts. Spoon some marinade over the salmon and rice. Serve wasabi on the side if you like.
Notes
- You can also throw in a small piece of dasima (dried kelp), peppercorns, and/or some garlic and ginger slices if you want. Boil a little longer (5 min) if you're adding these ingredients.
- Depending on the size of the container, you may have a little extra marinade. Keep it in the fridge and use it as a sauce for stir-frying or as a dipping sauce.
