Directions

  1. 1

    Combine the ★ seasonings (3 tbsp mirin, 2 tbsp sugar, 2 tbsp sake, 2 tbsp soy sauce, and 1-2 tsp grated ginger) in a bowl to make the sauce.

  2. 2

    Pat the salmon fillets dry with paper towels and coat evenly with potato starch (extra).

  3. 3

    Heat oil in a frying pan and cook the salmon skin-side down first, then flip and cook both sides until golden brown.

  4. 4

    Once the salmon is cooked through, wipe away any excess oil with paper towels.

  5. 5

    Add the prepared sauce to the pan and coat the salmon, simmering until the sauce reduces and clings to the fish.

  6. 6

    Once the sauce is well coated on the salmon, remove from heat and serve.

  7. 7

    Sauté the 2 bell peppers and 1/2 zucchini in a separate pan, then arrange alongside the salmon on a plate.

Tips

Mix the sauce in advance for a smoother cooking process. You can also use mackerel or Spanish mackerel instead of salmon for equally delicious results.
