  3. Add a tablespoon of oil in a non-stick skillet and fry the fish for a few minutes on each side until they are slightly brown. This is also the right time to season them.
  4. Place the drained rice in a big saucepan and add water, soy sauce, mirin, dashi, cooking wine, umeboshi, and ginger juliennes. Stir well.

  7. After 20 minutes, add chopped spring onion, cover it, and let it sit for another 10 minutes.
