Flake the canned fish with a fork or break it into small pieces. You can leave a little of the liquid to soak into the rice. Place the fish on top of the rice and pour the remaining batter over it. Sprinkle the top with sesame seeds or grated cheese, if desired. Gently shake the baking dish by hand to evenly distribute the batter, then bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 40 minutes.
