Caryl's Mackerel Fillets in Soy Sauce with Oranges

Ingredients

1/2 cup soy sauce
1/3 cup sake
1 tbs sugar
2 tbs rice vinegar
4 oranges, cut into rounds
5 mackerel fillets, skin on
Spring onions, chopped

Directions

1. In a large skillet, mix together the sake, sugar, vinegar and orange rounds. Bring to a boil and simmer over medium heat for about 5 minutes.

2. Add fish, skin side down, carefully placing the soaked orange slices over the top. Simmer, until the fish is cooked through - approx. 8-10 minutes.

Serve on white rice and garnish with the spring onions & orange slices.

Enjoy!

Caryl's Tweaks

1. The sake can be replaced with dry sherry and the rice vinegar can be replaced with white wine vinegar.

2. Try adding thin slices of peeled fresh ginger to the mixture with the oranges.

3. Crushed garlic can also be added.

We like it served with fresh baby spinach leaves on the side!
