• 4 cod fish fillets
• 150 ml mirin

• 225 g granulated sugar
• sake
• pickled ginger, for garnish

1. Bring the sake and mirin to a boil in a medium saucepan over a high heat.
2. Boil for 20 seconds to evaporate the alcohol.
3. Turn the heat down to low and add the miso paste, mixing with a wooden spoon.
4. When the miso has dissolved turn the heat up to high again and add the sugar, stirring constantly to make sure it doesn't burn.
5. Once the sugar is dissolved remove from the heat and cool to room temperature.
6. Meanwhile, pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels.
7. When the miso mixture has cooled a bit, cover the fish with the mixture and place in a non-reactive dish or bowl.
8. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and leave to steep for 2-3 days.
9. On the day of the dinner, preheat the oven to 200C as well as a grill.
