My kids are used to eating cod and usually they eat it steamed plain or with wolfberries or with a dash of teriyaki sauce. Sometimes I simply pan-fry it and on super good days, they get home-made cod fish fingers or the super creamy baked cod with Ritz crackers crust. 🙂
Recently, I decided to indulge them a little and they absolutely love this pan-fried teriyaki cod!
Here’s a serving of teriyaki cod for little boy (15 months):
I usually let the cod soak up the sauce but if you like, you can always leave some sauce for drizzling on rice etc. Just make sure you prepare more sauce then.
- 30-50g cod fillet
- teriyaki sauce* (see cooking notes), amount up to your preference
- 1 teaspoon oil
- Rinse cod fillet and pat dry.
- Add a teaspoon of oil to the pan (I'm using the Happy Call pan).
- When the oil is heated up, add the fish and cover the pan and let it fry for about 2 minutes.
- Flip the small piece of cod in the pan and cover the pan again for about 10 seconds.
- Pour the teriyaki sauce on the cod and cover the pan again and cook till the sauce has thickened to a consistency of your liking or if the cod fillet has soaked up the sauce.
- Remove from pan and serve.
2. Adjust the sauce to your liking before adding it to the pan as the cod will be overcooked if you start adjusting the taste of the sauce only in the cooking process.
3. You can substitute cod with salmon fillet.
