To prepare the fish, cut it into roughly 30g pieces and marinate it
with all the aforementioned ingredients, and then keep in the fridge for
about 15-20 minutes.
Once the fish has been marinated, place the pieces in a heated frying
pan with ½ teaspoon of oil, and cook on each side for 3-4 minutes.
Place the fish on a plate, then top it with the sauce and drizzle with
the rest of the sesame oil. Serve fresh with some plain steamed rice.
