Wine Steamed Green Onion and Mackerel
- 2/3 Japanese leek
- 2 cuts Mackerel
- 1 Salt and pepper
- 2 tbsp Sake (or white wine)
- 1 Daikon sprouts, mizuna, or your choice of garnishing
- Make a cut lengthwise down the center of the leek, then diagonally slice to 1 cm thicknesses.
- Layer in the bottom of a frying pan.
- Lightly rinse the gut of the mackerel close to the spine.
- Place the mackerel on the bed of leeks, season with salt and pepper, sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sake per cut, then let sit for about 5 minutes.
- Cover with a lid, then cook over medium-high heat.
- Once it starts to steam and condensation collects on the lid, reduce to low heat.
- Steam-fry for 10 minutes.
- Remove from heat after 10 minutes.
- Without removing the lid, allow the fish to cook with the residual heat for 2 minutes.
- Once the fish is cooked through, it's ready to serve.
- Transfer to individual serving dishes, then garnish with daikon sprouts or any garnishing of your choice.
- Squeeze a dash of yuzu citrus or lemon, pour ponzu or salt ponzu sauce, then serve.
