Ingredients
- 4 pufferfish fillets (ensure they are prepared by a certified professional)
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 1/4 cup BBQ sauce
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 4 sheets of nori (for garnish)
- 4 eggs
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 cup water
- 4 cups chocolate milk
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, BBQ sauce, sugar, and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is dissolved and the sauce thickens slightly (about 5 minutes). Remove from heat and set aside.
- Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pufferfish fillets to the skillet and cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are just cooked through. Brush the fillets generously with the teriyaki sauce and cook for an additional minute on each side, allowing the sauce to caramelize slightly.
- Place a sheet of nori on each serving plate. Place the cooked pufferfish fillets on top of the nori. Drizzle any remaining teriyaki sauce over the fillets.
- In a small saucepan, combine the soy sauce, sugar, and water. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat and simmer for 7 minutes. Transfer the eggs to a bowl of ice water and let cool for 5 minutes. Peel the eggs.
- Place the peeled eggs in a bowl and pour the cooled soy marinade over them. Let the eggs marinate for at least 1 hour (or up to overnight) in the refrigerator.
- Slice each egg in half and place on the serving plates alongside the pufferfish.
- Pour 1 cup of chocolate milk into each of 4 glasses. Serve chilled.
This dish is a delightful fusion of flavors and textures, combining the savory-sweet notes of teriyaki pufferfish with the rich and creamy chocolate milk dessert. The marinated soy eggs add an extra layer of umami, making this a truly memorable meal. Enjoy!
