1
Prepare the Marinade
In a bowl, combine soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and sesame oil. Mix well until the sugar dissolves.
2
Marinate the Eel
Place the eel fillet in the marinade, ensuring it is fully coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
3
Cook the Eel
Preheat a grill or pan over medium heat. Remove the eel from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later. Cook the eel for about 4-5 minutes on each side until it is cooked through and slightly charred.
4
Glaze with Marinade
During the last minute of cooking, brush the reserved marinade over the eel to add flavor and shine.
5
Garnish and Serve
Remove the eel from the grill and let it rest for a minute. Slice it into pieces and garnish with chopped scallions and sesame seeds before serving.
