Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Kingfish fillet
- 50 ml Soy sauce
- 10 grams Wasabi paste
- 50 grams Pickled ginger
- 1 piece Lemon
- 1 tablespoon Sesame seeds
- 1 stalk Spring onion
- 1 pinch Sea salt
Instructions
1. Start by ensuring the Kingfish fillet is fresh and skinless. Gently rinse it under cold water and pat it dry with a paper towel.
2. Using a sharp sushi knife, slice the Kingfish fillet against the grain into thin slices, about 5mm thick, ensuring they are uniform for even texture.
3. Arrange the slices on a chilled serving plate, slightly overlapping each piece.
4. In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce with a couple of freshly squeezed lemon juice drops to add a hint of zest to your soy sauce mix.
5. Thinly slice the spring onion and sprinkle it over the arranged Kingfish slices. This adds a subtle onion crunch and a burst of flavor.
6. Lightly toast the sesame seeds in a dry frying pan over medium heat until they are golden brown, which should take about 2-3 minutes. Sprinkle these toasted sesame seeds over the sashimi for added texture.
7. Serve the Kingfish sashimi with a side of pickled ginger, a small dab of wasabi paste, and the soy sauce mixture for dipping.
8. Finish with a pinch of sea salt over the sashimi slices to enhance the natural flavors.
9. Enjoy this high-protein Kingfish sashimi as a light and refreshing dish.
