Ingredients

Jasmine Rice

  • 2 cups jasmine rice
  • 3 cups water
  • ½ teaspoon salt

Salmon

  • 1 Tbsp makrut lime coconut sugar
  • 1½ Tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
  • ½ tsp sesame oil
  • 600g salmon fillets

Stir-Fry

  • ¼ savoy cabbage
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 2 tsp fish sauce
  • ½-¾ bag edamame beans
  • 100g mung bean sprouts
  • 2 tsp mixed sesame seeds

To Serve

  • 2 tsp mixed sesame seeds

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C. Combine rice, water and salt in a medium 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.
  2. In a small bowl, combine salmon ingredients (except for salmon) and stir to combine. Line an oven tray with baking paper.
  3. Cut salmon into 4-5 pieces and place skin-sidedown, on prepared tray. Season and spoon over glaze, reserving a few tablespoons for serving. Bake salmon for about 8 minutes until just cooked through (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking.
  4. While salmon is baking, shred cabbage until you have about 3 cups worth. Heat sesame oil in in a large fry-pan or wok on high heat. Stir-fry cabbage and edamame beans for 1–2 minutes until cabbage is slightly wilted but still bright green and crunchy.
  5. Remove pan/wok from heat, toss through fish sauce, mung bean sprouts and first measure of sesame seeds.
  6. To serve, spoon ¾ cup cooked rice per person onto plates with some sesame stir-fry on the side. Place a piece of salmon onto each plate and drizzle over a little of the reserved makrut lime glaze. Garnish with remaining sesame seeds.
