Ingredients

2 x 180g Black Cod fillets, skin on
100g Saikyo (white) miso paste
50ml Mirin
50ml Sake
30g Granulated sugar
3 stalks scallions, roughly chopped
20g Fresh ginger, peeled and minced
100ml Grapeseed oil
50g Lotus root, thinly sliced
Maldon sea salt to taste

Cooking Instructions

  1. 01

    In a small saucepan, bring sake and mirin to a boil for 20 seconds to evaporate alcohol. Whisk in miso paste and sugar over low heat until smooth. Cool completely.

  2. 02

    Pat cod dry and coat thoroughly with the miso marinade. Refrigerate for 24 to 48 hours (minimum 6 hours for best flavor).

  3. 03

    For the emulsion: Combine scallions, ginger, and grapeseed oil in a high-speed blender. Blend until bright green and smooth. Strain through a fine-mesh chinois and season with a pinch of salt.

  4. 04

    Fry the thin lotus root slices in 160°C oil until golden and crisp. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

  5. 05

    Preheat oven to 200°C. Wipe excess marinade off the cod. Sear in a hot, oven-proof non-stick pan with a touch of oil for 2 minutes, then transfer to the oven for 8-10 minutes until caramelized and flaky.

  6. 06

    To serve, place a pool of ginger-scallion emulsion on the plate, top with the miso cod, and garnish with crispy lotus roots and micro-coriander.

Review

The Caprese Salad Skewers recipe was a triumph! I prepared them for a party's barbecue and everyone loved them. The basil was so aromatic, the mozzarella so fresh, and the skewers were the perfect size and an appropriate.
