This Japanese Bisque leans on soy and ginger to do the heavy lifting. We grill the Cod for real depth, then bring it together in one pan.
Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the soy and ginger elements, and pat the cod dry so it colours well.
Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Turn up the heat and add the cod. Grill over a medium-high heat, turning once, until nicely charred and cooked through.
Stir in the dashi stock and the rest of the soy and ginger flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the spinach along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.
Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
