Instructions

1

Rinse the short-grain rice until the water runs clear and cook in a pot with water until tender and fluffy.

2

In a wide pan, create a bed with the chopped kimchi and sliced ginger. Place the mackerel fillets on top of the kimchi bed.

3

Mix the gochujang with 1/2 cup of water and pour over the fish. Cover the pan and bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat.

4

Braise for 10-12 minutes until the mackerel is opaque and flakes easily with a fork, and the sauce has reduced into a thick, glossy glaze.

5

Garnish with a generous handful of sliced scallions.

6

Serve immediately by placing the braised fish and kimchi alongside a bowl of steaming short-grain rice, ensuring you spoon some of the spicy braising liquid over everything.
