fishwife smoked salmon
- • For the taiyaki batter
- • 1 cup cake flour
- • 2 teaspoons baking powder
- • 1 teaspoon corn starch
- • 1 tablespoon sugar
- • 1/2 teaspoon salt
- • 1 egg, beaten
- • 1/2 cup milk
- • 1/2 cup water
- • 3 tablespoons sour cream
- • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- • 3 sprigs scallion and/or cilantro, chopped
- • red pepper flakes to taste
- • salt and pepper to taste
- • 1 tin fishwife smoked salmon, flaked into small pieces
- • 1 cucumber, sliced
- • pickled radish
- Sift the dry ingredients into a medium bowl: 1 cup cake flour, 1 tsp baking powder, 1 tsp corn starch. Add the sugar and salt. Mix well.
- Add the liquids to the dry ingredients: the beaten egg, milk, and water. Mix well until all clumps are gone.
- To make the filling, in a small bowl mix together sour cream, lemon juice, scallions and/or cilantro, red pepper flakes, salt and pepper, and fishwife smoked salmon.
- Heat up your taiyaki pan on low heat. Brush both sides with oil. Once hot, add a tablespoon of batter to one side of the pan and spread it into thin layer with a spoon so the whole fish is evenly covered. Once halfway cooked (air bubbles will come to the surface), flip the pan and spread a layer of batter on the opposite side in the same manner.
- Once half cooked, close the pan and let it cook for 3 minutes (exact cooking time depends on your pan), flipping occasionally to make sure each side is evenly golden brown. You can open the pan to check the doneness.
- When the taiyaki is golden brown, carefully remove it from the pan.
- To assemble: With a knife, cut a slit between the two sides of the taiyaki and spread a few teaspoons of filling inside, then add cucumber slices. Enjoy!
