Description
A delicious recipe for curry-grilled mackerel, perfect for curry lovers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 salted mackerel fillets
- 1 tbsp. sake (or dry white wine)
- 1 tsp. curry powder
- 2 tbsp. potato starch (can substitute corn starch)
- 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
Instructions
- Cut the mackerel into bite-sized pieces. Pour the sake over the mackerel and let the pieces sit for about 5 minutes. Pat dry with paper towels.
- Place the mackerel and curry powder into a zip-top bag. Massage gently to coat. Add the potato starch, seal the bag with some air inside, and shake until the fish is evenly coated.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Place the mackerel skin-side down and cook until golden brown. Flip and reduce the heat to low. Cook for another 4–5 minutes until fully cooked through.
Notes
- Adjust the amount of curry powder to taste. For a milder flavor, use 1/2 tsp.
- For small children, just a hint of curry powder gives a nice aroma without overwhelming spice.
- This recipe uses large mackerel fillets; adjust cooking time if using thinner cuts.
