Non-Fried Marinated Nanban - Raw Salmon and Sweet Onions Using Shio-Koji
- 3 slice Raw salmon
- 2 tbsp Shio-koji (salt fermented rice malt)
- 1/2 Carrot
- 1/2 Sweet onion (or regular onions)
- 1/4 Red or yellow bell pepper
- 1 Green onions or scallions
- 1 Katakuriko
- 200 ml Dashi stock
- 2 1/2 tbsp Soy sauce
- 3 tbsp Mirin
- 2 tbsp Vinegar
- 1 and 1/2 tablespoons Sugar
- Cut raw salmon into thirds, coat it in shio-koji, and let it cure in the refrigerator overnight.
- Mince the green onions and thinly slice the rest of the vegetables.
- Put a light layer of oil (not listed) in a pot, saute the onions, then the carrots, and then the bell peppers until tender.
- Add all the ingredients of the Nanban sauce into the pot and bring to a gentle boil.
- Evenly coat the raw salmon (without removing the shio-koji) in katakuriko and fry in a pan with oil (about 4 tablespoons, not listed) until crisp.
- Gently remove the excess oil from the salmon and put into a deep dish.
- Add the heated Nanban sauce from Step 4 while still hot and it's ready to serve.
- Marinating the salmon for a minimum of 2 hours (or, if possible, a full day) will blend the flavors together quite nicely.
