5 Tbsp soysauce
4 Tbsp mirin
1 Tbsp sesame oil

A dash of salt (for the fish)
Radish
Scallions
Onion
Red or green chili peppers
Any filet or piece of fish

  1. In a bowl, lightly coat the fish with a dash of salt and put it aside

  2. In another bowl, mix together all of the seasoning ingredients — gochugaru, minced garlic, ginger (optional), soysauce, mirin, and sesame oil

  3. On a cutting board, slice the radish into 1/2-inch chunks and slice the red/green chili peppers (and put them aside)

  5. Add just enough water or kombu broth to cover the top of the radish pieces

  6. Boil the radish on medium heat for about 20 minutes

  7. After the radish has boiled, layer some scallions, onions, and the lightly salted fish on top

  8. Spread the remaining seasoning over everything in the pan and sprinkle with sliced red and green chili peppers

  9. Add just enough water to cover the fish and braise everything in the pan for another 20 minutes (make sure to spoon the liquid sauce over the fish occasionally for the best flavor!)

  10. Remove the pan from the heat, and enjoy!
