Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Yellowtail fillets 3 slices
  • All-purpose flour (for dusting) as needed

Seasonings

  • Salt to taste
  • Pepper to taste
  • Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
  • Green onions (finely chopped) 3 tbsp
  • Ginger (grated) 1 tsp
  • Lemon zest (finely chopped) a little
  • [A] Lemon juice 1 tbsp
  • [A] Soy sauce 3 tbsp
  • [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
  • [A] Vinegar 2 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 1 tsp
  • [A] Sesame oil 2 tbsp

Steps

  1. Cut the yellowtail fillets into bite-sized pieces, about three per slice.
  2. Season the cut yellowtail with salt to taste and pepper to taste.
  3. Add 1 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) and mix to coat.
  4. In a bowl, combine 3 tbsp finely chopped green onions, 1 tsp grated ginger, and a little finely chopped lemon zest.
  5. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp lemon juice, 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp Cooking Sake (Rice Wine), 2 tbsp vinegar, and 1 tsp sugar until well combined.
  6. Add 2 tbsp sesame oil to the mixed seasonings and stir to complete the Yurin sauce.
  7. Just before frying, coat the seasoned yellowtail evenly with all-purpose flour as needed.
  8. Heat about 1 cm of oil in a frying pan. Add the flour-coated yellowtail. Fry until golden brown all over, turning frequently. [Key Tip!] Using a small amount of oil and turning frequently allows the fish to cook through easily.
  9. Remove the fried yellowtail and place on paper towels to drain excess oil.
  10. Arrange lemon slices on a plate and place the fried yellowtail in the center.
  11. Drizzle the Yurin sauce over the yellowtail. Garnish with finely chopped lemon zest, if desired, to finish. Enjoy!
