Ingredients
BABY ROASTED KUMARA
- 400g baby orange kumara, cut in half lengthways
- 1½ teaspoons sesame seeds
Asian sauté
- 1 baby bok choy, end trimmed 1cm
- ½ bunch spring onions, white part only
- 1 teaspoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon water
- 1½ teaspoons sesame seeds
- ½ packet of mung bean sprouts
CRISPY SKIN SALMON
- 300g salmon fillet
- 1½ teaspoons nori salt (shake packet well before opening)
TO SERVE
- 2 tablespoons miso emulsion (at room temperature)
- 2 packets white pickled ginger
- 4 sheets teriyaki nori, torn into pieces
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 220°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper. Place baby kumara, flesh-side-up on prepared tray. Toss with a drizzle of olive oil, season with salt and pepper and sprinkle over sesame seeds. Bake for about 30 minutes, until kumara are tender and sesame seeds are golden.
-
Slice bok choy in half lengthways; thinly slice white part of spring onions into 8cm lengths; mix vinegar with water. Set all aside.
-
Pat salmon dry with paper towels and remove any remaining scales or pin bones. Cut into 2-3 pieces and sprinkle with nori salt. When baby kumara have 10 minutes cook time remaining, heat a drizzle of oil in a medium fry-pan on medium-high heat.
-
Cook salmon, skin-side-down, for about 3 minutes, until skin is crispy. Flip and cook for a further 2 minutes for medium-rare or until cooked to your liking. Set aside to rest for 2-3 minutes. Discard oil from pan and wipe pan clean with paper towels. Return dry pan to medium-high heat.
-
Sauté spring onions and bok choy for about 1 minute, until spring onions are starting to brown. Add vinegar/water mixture to pan and steam veggies for about 1 minute, until starting to wilt. Remove from heat and toss through all remaining Asian sauté ingredients. Season with salt and pepper.
-
spoon miso emulsion onto plates and smooth out into a circle. Divide baby roasted kumara and Asian sauté between plates. Top with salmon, skinside-up and sprinkle over pickled ginger and teriyaki nori.
