🇯🇵 Japan
Ingredients
- 500g skinless salmon fillet, cut into large cubes
- 4 spring onions, thinly sliced
- 4 garlic cloves, grated (for sauce)
- 2 tbsp miso
- 3 tbsp sriracha
- 2 tbsp fish sauce
- 2 tbsp honey
- 1 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 200g sushi rice
- 250ml water
- 2 tsp sugar
- 1.5 tbsp rice wine vinegar
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 sheets nori seaweed, blitzed or finely chopped
- 2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
- 3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced (for spinach)
- 20g butter
- 200g spinach
- 0.5 tbsp soy sauce
- 0.5 lemon, juiced
- Extra nori seaweed, to serve (optional)
Steps
- Rinse the sushi rice until the water runs clear. Combine with the water in a saucepan, bring to a boil, then cover and simmer on low for 12 minutes. Turn off the heat and let sit, covered, for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the miso, sriracha, fish sauce, honey, rice wine vinegar, and grated garlic to make the sauce.
- Add the cubed salmon to the sauce, toss to coat, then transfer to a container and marinate in the fridge until ready to cook.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the salt, sugar, and vinegar for the rice seasoning.
- Once the rice is cooked, stir in the seasoning liquid, chopped nori, and sesame seeds.
- Thinly slice the garlic for the spinach. Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, add the garlic, and cook about 3 minutes until softened and fragrant.
- Add the spinach and gently wilt, then season with soy sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice.
- When ready to eat, place the marinated salmon in an air fryer, pour over the sauce, and cook at 240°C for 3-4 minutes.
- Reheat the rice in the microwave if needed. Slice the spring onions.
- Spoon the rice into bowls, top with the salmon and its sauce, then finish with the buttery spinach, spring onions, and extra nori if desired.
