00:00 (sizzling)
00:02 Hey everyone, I'm Chef David Meyers
00:11 of Adrift Kayak here in New Delhi,
00:13 and I am so thrilled to be showcasing
00:16 some of our newest dishes for Outlook Traveler
00:19 to celebrate our one year anniversary.
00:22 (upbeat music)
00:24 So today we are going to do
00:38 some of my favorite, favorite dishes.
00:41 A little bit of live scallop.
00:42 That's gonna be done as a light sumami dish.
00:45 Very, very vibrant in flavor
00:47 with some tosazu ponzu sauce,
00:50 a little bit of wakame, some nori,
00:52 and we're gonna finish it with some ikura,
00:55 which is just some nice salmon eggs.
00:57 So let me show you how we do this.
00:59 Starting with Hokkaido scallops.
01:01 We get these in live from Hokkaido.
01:03 We're gonna use about five of these.
01:05 I like to slice them just right in half.
01:07 I like a little bit of thickness to it,
01:09 a little bit of texture, which is very nice.
01:12 This texture is just beautiful.
01:15 We're gonna take some of our fresh cucumber.
01:17 Now, you could slice this up, you could dice it.
01:19 We like to do these very thin,
01:21 some shoyu, just like that.
01:25 We're gonna add a little bit of sesame seeds.
01:28 I like the crunch of the sesame seeds,
01:30 a little bit of the furikake, some green onion,
01:33 just a little bit of green onion in with that,
01:35 and just let that marinate for a second.
01:37 Now, the beauty of this dish
01:39 is getting in some of this wakame,
01:42 and seaweed is so healthy.
01:44 I love to use seaweed.
01:45 So we're just gonna mix this up together.
01:48 So now, when I cut the cucumber like this
01:51 and with the wakame, I like that I can just pull this out,
01:54 one nice piece, put this right in the middle,
01:58 nice and tight, it's just a gorgeous salad,
02:01 vinaigrette right here.
02:02 So basically, this is ponzu.
02:04 Ponzu is yuzu, a little bit of shoyu with it,
02:08 and we make a jelly.
02:10 So we're just gonna put this around,
02:12 just like that.
02:16 And we're gonna finish with a little bit of the okara.
02:21 So I like this because it just really makes the dish pop.
02:25 Really, really nice.
02:27 I love the salmon eggs, the way they pop in your mouth.
02:30 So good.
02:31 Now we're just gonna finish off with some furikake
02:34 for a little bit of spice,
02:37 and let's give it a little bit of the dried nori around.
02:41 It's a very elegant presentation, super simple to make,
02:46 and your guests are gonna love this.
02:48 All right, our next dish
02:58 is the famous miso-marinated black cod.
03:01 I love this dish, everybody loves this dish.
03:04 It's one of those famous dishes that you always get
03:07 when you're at a Japanese restaurant.
03:08 So of course we have to have it,
03:10 and I'm gonna show you how we make it.
03:12 So first of all, we start with black cod,
03:15 we're getting this from Nagasaki, actually from Japan,
03:18 and it's all about the marinade.
03:20 So we're gonna make a marinade.
03:21 First of all, we're going to be using some miso.
03:23 This is yellow miso.
03:25 Smells beautiful, so sweet.
03:27 Some sake, some fresh sake, and some brown sugar.
03:31 So we're gonna add our sake in first.
03:34 Let's add our brown sugar in.
03:37 I like to do about two tablespoons or so,
03:42 and then about a tablespoon to two tablespoons of the miso.
03:47 And then we're gonna just whisk it together,
03:51 all of this whisk.
03:52 Your cod is going to marinate for 48 hours,
03:55 and it's gonna really, really penetrate inside.
03:59 It's really a one-dish wonder.
04:01 You could have this single dish,
04:03 and it's almost a perfect meal.
04:06 But you can jazz it up a little bit
04:08 with either a cucumber salad, a little bit of white rice,
04:12 a miso soup, and then you have a proper Japanese-style meal.
04:15 So we're gonna marinate that just like that for 48 hours.
04:19 You're gonna cover it, put it in the fridge.
04:21 This is something that's great for a dinner party
04:23 because you can prepare it in advance,
04:25 and it's so easy to cook.
04:27 So after this is marinated 48 hours,
04:29 you're gonna pull it out,
04:30 you're gonna cook it in the oven,
04:31 and I'm gonna show you how we do that.
04:33 All right, and now we have our cooked miso cod.
04:36 So you can see how beautiful this gets.
04:38 It's absolutely golden.
04:41 It's caramelized on the top.
04:42 It's all about that miso marinade.
04:44 Just beautiful, and this will absolutely fall apart
04:48 when you eat it.
04:48 It's so delicate.
04:50 So I like to serve it very simply just on a banana leaf.
04:53 A little bit of some pickled baby ginger like this.
04:57 It looks so nice.
04:59 I also love a little bit of some chives,
05:03 and then finishing with just a little bit
05:05 of some sesame seed.
05:06 And that is it.
05:08 Super, super simple, but my favorite dish.
05:12 I just love this dish.
05:13 (upbeat music)
05:15 All right, the next dish that we're gonna do
05:24 is oktoro tuna tataki.
05:27 I'm gonna show you how we do it right now.
05:29 We're basically going to set it up on skewers
05:31 so I can very quickly just lightly grill it
05:34 over the charcoal fire
05:37 just to get the warmth over the fat.
05:39 Beautiful.
05:43 So you see here we got a little bit of the smoke,
05:46 got a little bit of the char to it, just like this.
05:50 Gorgeous.
05:52 Now, this dish is super, super simple,
05:54 and we have some fresh wasabi roots.
05:57 So, we have some fresh wasabi.
06:03 We're gonna slice this now.
06:04 (upbeat music)
06:07 So I like to do nice long slices of this,
06:12 and you can see the beauty.
06:14 Could gently fold it,
06:16 and it has a little bit of a nice look to it,
06:22 just like this.
06:23 Just rolling it over, super easy.
06:26 Stunning.
06:29 Stunning.
06:32 So, we wanna add a little bit of our ponzu over top of it.
06:37 This is what we're seasoning it with, of the shoyu.
06:42 Little bit of the greens.
06:45 We like to just do these different micro greens.
06:48 I like the bitterness, I like the spiciness,
06:51 different radishes, it's quite nice.
06:53 Some of the fried garlic, just like this.
06:59 And then we're gonna add some of this fresh wasabi.
07:03 Quite nice.
07:04 Gorgeous.
07:05 Finish up with just a few of these beautiful flower petals
07:12 for the look.
07:12 Our tuna tataki.
07:18 Super simple, but oh so good.
