Prepare the radish and aromatics. Peel and slice the Korean radish into roughly 1/4-inch thick rounds or half-moons. Mince the garlic and ginger (if using). Cut the scallions into 2-inch pieces, keeping the white and green parts separate.
â±ïž 10 minutes - 2
Layer the pot. Arrange the sliced radish evenly at the bottom of a wide, shallow pot or Dutch oven. This prevents the fish from sticking and allows the radish to absorb the delicious braising liquid.
â±ïž 3 minutes - 3
Place the mackerel fillets on top of the radish layer. Ensure they are in a single layer.
â±ïž 2 minutes - 4
Prepare the braising liquid. In a small bowl, whisk together the gochugaru, soy sauce, minced garlic, minced ginger (if using), and sugar (if using). Pour this mixture evenly over the mackerel and radish.
â±ïž 5 minutes - 5
Add liquid and bring to a boil. Pour in the water (or broth). Bring the liquid to a rolling boil over medium-high heat.
â±ïž 5 minutes - 6
Simmer and braise. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot, and let it simmer gently for about 20-25 minutes. The fish should be cooked through and opaque, and the radish should be tender when pierced with a fork. Baste the fish occasionally with the braising liquid.
â±ïž 25 minutes - 7
Add scallions and finish. Stir in the white parts of the scallions during the last 5 minutes of simmering. Once the radish is tender and the fish is cooked, add the green parts of the scallions. Cook for another minute until slightly softened. Taste the sauce and adjust seasoning if needed.
â±ïž 5 minutes - 8
Serve hot. Carefully transfer the mackerel and radish to a serving dish, spooning some of the flavorful braising liquid over the top. Garnish with extra scallion greens if desired. Serve immediately with steamed rice.
