Iwashi Mirin Boshi (grilled sardines)


Start with a marinade: bring 50 ml soy sauce, 15 ml mirin, 1 tbsp sake, 2 tbsp caster sugar and 1/2 tsp salt to the boil, then take from the fire 

Mix 25g potato starch with 50ml water, mix with the soy sauce, but... by bit and stirring well

Remove the heads from 4 sardines, slice the belly side open, remove the innards, put them skin side down, flatten and remove the spine but leave the tail

Marinade in the soy mix for at least 3 hrs.

Preheat the oven at 230°C

Pat the sardines dry with kitchen paper, put on parchment paper in een oven dish and put in the hot oven for 3-5 mins.
