A HOT FAVORITE OF NOBU AND WASABI...MY DAUGHTER IS A FAN OF THIS FISH AND WE MARINATED IT FOR A FULL TWO DAYS...THE FLAVOR WAS PERFECT,SOFT MOUTH WATERING AND DELICIOUS......I TRIED THIS RECIPE WITH THE ORIGINAL BLACK COD AS ITS AVAILABLE WHERE I AM BUT YOU COULD GET A SIMILAR FLAVOR WITH BASA OR POMFRET(WASHED IN LEMON JUICE ) TOO...HERE GOES THE RECIPE..IT IS AN ADDICTIVE ONE......DO CHECK OUT THE STEP BY STEP LINK TO PICTURES AT THE BOTTOM............
