Serves 4 as a main dish

¼ cup (60 ml) soy sauce

2 tablespoons gochugaru

2 tablespoons gochujang

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1 tablespoon minced peeled fresh ginger

1 pound (455 g) Pacific saury, gutted and cleaned (about 2 fish)

2 tablespoons canola oil

1 medium Spanish onion, diced

½ teaspoon kosher salt

1 pound (455 g) Korean moo or daikon radish, peeled, halved, and cut into ½-inch (12 mm) half-moons

1 long green Korean chile, sliced ½ inch (12 mm) thick on the bias

1 Holland chile, sliced ½ inch (12 mm) thick

2 scallions, cut into 2-inch (5 cm) pieces

1 In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, gochugaru, gochujang, garlic, ginger, and 1 cup (240 ml) water. Set aside; this is your sauce.

2 Rinse off the fish and then cut off and discard the heads and tails, if they are still attached. (If there are still little pieces of fin attached, cut them off with scissors.) Cut each fish into 3 roughly equal pieces and set them aside.

3 In a medium saucepan, heat the canola oil over medium heat. Add the onions and salt and cook, stirring frequently, until soft, translucent, and aromatic, about 8 minutes. (Some color is okay, but you don’t want them to brown.)

4 Lay the radish slices on top of the onions, then top the radish with the fish pieces. Drizzle the sauce over, cover the pot, and adjust the heat so the sauce is at a simmer. Cook for 20 minutes.

5 Remove the lid, baste the fish with the sauce, and add the chiles and scallions, tucking some of them in between the fish pieces.

6 Let cook for another 15 to 20 minutes, or until the radishes are tender when you pierce them with a fork.

7 Serve hot as a main meal or at room temperature as banchan.
