shishamo



yum yum shishamo - small fish with eggs. Apparently they catch whichever fish, male or female, and inject eggs into them - so when you buy shishamo they always have eggs - talk about equality in sexes!!! So here I just fried them - but the proper way to do them is to cook them under one of those awesome fish grills that every stove in Japan has and cook them like babies (not that you would cook babies, but...) so they don't burst out their eggs... But this was a quick fix I wanted, so... and it also reminded me of a dish we make in the coastal areas of Sri Lanka - devilled fish eggs... yumm yummmm....
