Directions:
Create a marinade for the sea bass: puree 1/2c. mirin, sake, tamari/soy sauce, miso, rice vinegar, ginger and brown sugar in blender. Place fillets in single layer in glass baking dish; pour marinade over. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours, turning occasionally.
Preheat oven 400ºF. Remove fillets from marinade and pat dry. Season both sides of fillets with salt and pepper. Heat oil in large oven-proof nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add fillets and sear until golden brown, about 2 minutes. Turn fillets over, transfer skillet to oven. Bake 8 minutes, just until opaque in the center.
Place steamed rice in center of plates. Top with fillets. Spoon some coconut-curry sauce around rice on each plate. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
Create coconut-curry sauce: combine 1/2c. mirin, lemongrass, and ginger in heavy medium saucepan. Boil until reduced to 1/4c. (about 6 minutes). Add wine and boil until reduced to 1/4c. (about 6 minutes). Add cream and coconut milk, bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium, simmer sauce until slightly thickened, stirring occasionally, about 12 minutes. Stir in curry paste. Season to taste. Note: Sauce can be prepared one day ahead.
