Equipment

  • frying pan

Ingredients
  

Sauce

  • 2 tablespoon regular soy sauce or tamari
  • 2 tablespoon apple cider vinegar (or rice wine vinegar or fresh lime juice)
  • 2 tablespoon honey (or brown sugar)
  • 2 teaspoon freshly minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon freshly minced ginger

Salmon

  • 4 fillets salmon, skin on
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon cracked black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

To Serve

  • 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (370 g)
  • 1 cup frozen edamame beans (thawed as per packet instructions, 200 g)
  • 2 Lebanese cucumbers, sliced
  • 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
  • 4 tablespoon spicy mayonnaise (or plain whole-egg mayonnaise) (see note 1 about dairy-free)

Instructions
 

Sauce

  • Combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl.

Salmon

  • Sprinkle the salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan (ideally non-stick) over medium heat. Cook the salmon for 4 minutes, skin-side down first. Flip and cook for a further 3 minutes.
  • Add the sauce to the pan. Cook for 1–2 minutes, basting the salmon all over with the sauce continuously, using a spoon, until the sauce becomes sticky and begins to glaze the salmon.

Serve

  • Divide the rice, edamame beans and cucumber among four bowls. Add the salmon and sticky sauce to each of the bowls, then top with sesame seeds and drizzle of spicy mayonnaise.

Notes

Although mayonnaise is generally gluten-free, always check the label to be 100% sure.
