Ingredients
  • 4 x 8 oz (227 g) cod filets
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 large russet or white potatoes
  • Ghee or butter
  • 1 tbsp. wasabi or horseradish mayonnaise
  • 3 tbsp. miso paste
  • 3 tbsp. cooking wine or sake
  • 1½ tbsp. brown sugar
  • Lime zest and juice
Method
  1. Wash, peel, and chop the potatoes into bite-sized pieces. Boil until tender. Drain, mash, season to taste, then stir in the mayonnaise and keep warm.
  2. While waiting for the potatoes, in a saucepan, combine the miso, brown sugar, and sake. Bring to a simmer until thick and glaze-like.
  3. Preheat your grill to 400°F (200°C).
  4. Pat the fish dry with paper towels and season lightly with salt and pepper to taste – the miso glaze will be salty.
  5. Sear the cod over direct heat for about 6 minutes, or until it releases easily from the grill grates. Flip and top with ghee. Continue cooking for another 2 to 3 minutes, until an internal temperature of 130°F (54°C).
  6. To plate, layer the cod atop the mashed potatoes and drizzle with glaze. Top with lime zest and a squeeze of lime. Serve this with your favorite seasonal vegetables or a crisp salad. Pair this with a pinot grigio from Alsace or a hoppy IPA for beer pairing.
