Ingredients
  • 80-100g (2.8-3.5oz) Oceanus Unagi Kabayaki
  • 15g (0.5oz) Watercress
  • 120-150g (4.2-5.3oz) Potato salad - or mashed potatoes
  • 2 each Mini tomatoes (red and yellow)
  • J-Basket roasted white sesame seeds as needed
  • Baguette as needed

Dressing

  • 1 Tbsp Olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp Nishiki Rice vinegar
  • 1 Tbsp Kikkoman Soy sauce
  • 1 tsp Prepared wasabi paste
Directions
  1. Slice the watercress into pieces 3-4cm (1.2-1.6 in) wide.
  2. Remove the stems from the mini tomatoes, then slice them in half.
  3. Mix the dressing ingredients in a bowl.
  4. Thaw the frozen eel, then if available, skewer it with a metal skewer and sear the surface over direct heat (using a BBQ skewer is also fine, or if unavailable, you can sear it in a frying pan). Cut it in half, then cut each half into pieces 2cm (0.8in) wide.
  5. Toss the eel and watercress together.
  6. Arrange the potato salad and mini tomatoes evenly on a plate, then place the dressed eel and watercress on top. Drizzle with the dressing and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Serve on baguette slices if desired.
