Ingredients

  • • 4 small yellow croaker (about 200 g each), cleaned
  • • 1 tbsp coarse sea salt
  • • 1 tbsp rice wine
  • • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • • 1 tbsp rice vinegar

  • • 1 spring onion, minced

Preparation Steps

1
Phase 1

Score each fish twice on both sides, rub with salt and rice wine, and rest 20 minutes.

2
Phase 2

Pat the fish thoroughly dry so the skin sears instead of steaming.

3
Phase 3

Pan-fry in oil over medium heat 5-6 minutes on the first side without moving the fish.

4
Phase 4

Turn once and grill 4-5 minutes more until the skin is crisp and the flesh pulls from the bone.

5
Phase 5

Stir the soy sauce, vinegar, gochugaru, and spring onion into a dipping sauce and serve alongside.
