Begin by preparing the kingfish fillet. Ensure it is fresh and of sashimi-grade quality. Rinse it gently under cold water and pat it dry with a paper towel.
Using a sharp knife, slice the kingfish fillet against the grain into thin pieces, approximately 1/4 inch thick. Arrange these slices on a chilled serving platter.
Peel and finely grate the fresh ginger. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, yuzu juice, mirin, and grated ginger to make the ponzu sauce.
Thinly slice the spring onions, including both the white and light green parts. Chop the fresh coriander leaves.
Peel the daikon radish and cut it into thin julienne strips for garnish.
Drizzle the ponzu sauce evenly over the arranged kingfish slices.
Sprinkle the sliced spring onions, chopped coriander, sesame seeds, and chili flakes over the top for flavor and garnish.
Arrange the julienned daikon radish artfully on the side of the platter.
Serve immediately to enjoy the freshest flavors. Pair with a light, chilled white wine or sake for a delightful experience.
