Pan-fried Mackerel instructions

2. Rinse, pat dry, and spread a splash of mirin or sake to remove the fishy smell. Pat dry again. If you can soak the fish in mirin for 10mins, that would be ideal, but not necessary..
3. Gently score the skin in a criss cross pattern. This will prevent curling. Add salt & pepper to both sides..

5. Light up your pan on a med-high flame until oil is hot. Place fish skin side down. Cook for 2-3 mins until crust is formed. Switch heat to med-low until fish is fully cooked through. Roughly 8 mins, give or take..
6. Serve w steamed rice and your favorite side dish. Enjoy!.
