Description

Grilled mackerel served with savory teriyaki noodles, a quick and delicious meal.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 mackerel fillets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Salt and black pepper to taste
  • 150g egg noodles
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 inch ginger, grated
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water (slurry)
  • 2 spring onions, chopped
  • 1 red chili, sliced (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
  2. Brush the mackerel fillets with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  3. Grill the mackerel for 3-4 minutes per side, or until cooked through and flaky.
  4. While the mackerel is grilling, cook the egg noodles according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
  5. In a small saucepan, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for 1 minute until fragrant.
  6. Stir in soy sauce, brown sugar, and rice vinegar. Bring to a simmer.
  7. Whisk in the cornstarch slurry and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens.
  8. Add the cooked noodles to the saucepan with the teriyaki sauce and toss to coat evenly.
  9. Serve the grilled mackerel immediately with the teriyaki noodles. Garnish with chopped spring onions and sliced red chili, if desired.

Notes

  • For a spicier kick, add a pinch of red pepper flakes to the teriyaki sauce.
  • You can substitute other firm white fish for mackerel, such as cod or halibut.
  • Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
