Ingredients
RICE
- 1½ cups basmati rice
- 2¼ cups water
TERIYAKI-BAKED SALMON
- 450g salmon fillet
- 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
STIR-FRY VEGGIES
- 2 carrots
- 1 head broccoli
- ¼ green cabbage
- 3–4 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
SAUCE
- 3 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon cornflour mixed with 1 tablespoon water
TO SERVE
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
- 1 lemon, cut into wedges (optional, adults)
Steps
-
oven grill to high. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
-
Combine rice, water and a pinch of salt in a pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Pat salmon dry with paper towels, remove any remaining pin bones and cut into 3–4 pieces. Season with salt and place in a medium bowl with first measure of teriyaki sauce. Toss to coat then place, skin-side-down, on prepared tray.
-
Prepare vegetables; peel carrots, cut in half lengthways then thinly slice; cut broccoli into small florets and roughly dice stalk; thinly slice cabbage until you have 3–4 cups worth. Set all aside.
-
When rice is steaming, grill salmon in oven (on middle rack) for 6–8 minutes (depending on thickness), for medium-rare, or until cooked to your liking. Take care to ensure glaze does not burn. Stir all sauce ingredients together in a small dish, until cornflour is dissolved.
-
Heat oil in a fry-pan on high heat and stir-fry carrots and broccoli for about 2 minutes. Add water to help vegetables steam for 30 seconds. Add ginger, cabbage and all sauce ingredients and stir-fry until tender, 2–3 minutes. Season to taste with soy sauce, if required.
-
Spoon ¾ cup cooked rice per person onto plates and top with stir-fried veggies. Flake salmon away from skin and dot over veggies. Garnish with sesame seeds and squeeze over lemon juice just before serving, if desired.
