Ingredients (Serves 2):
For the salmon:
- 2 skin-on salmon fillets
- 1 tbsp white miso paste
- 1 tbsp mirin
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 2 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 tsp rice vinegar
For the greens:
- 2 cups broccolini or baby bok choy
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- ½ tsp grated ginger
- Toasted sesame seeds (to garnish)
For serving:
- Steamed jasmine rice (½ cup cooked per person)
- Lime wedges
- Fresh coriander or microgreens (optional)
Method:
- Preheat your oven to 200°C (fan 180°C).
Line a tray with baking paper. - Make the glaze:
In a small bowl, mix miso paste, mirin, sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, and rice vinegar until smooth. - Prepare the salmon:
Place fillets skin-side down on the tray and spoon the glaze generously over the top. Let them sit for 10 minutes to absorb flavour. - Roast the salmon:
Bake for 10–12 minutes, or until the glaze is caramelised and the salmon flakes easily. - Sauté the greens:
While the salmon cooks, heat sesame oil in a pan. Add broccolini or bok choy and ginger, tossing for 2–3 minutes. Add soy sauce and cook until just tender. - Assemble:
Plate steamed jasmine rice, top with miso-glazed salmon and sesame greens. Garnish with sesame seeds, coriander, and a squeeze of lime.
This refined yet simple salmon dish is designed to support your health from the inside out — with ingredients that are as kind to your skin and teeth as they are to your palate. It’s a little reminder that everyday elegance often begins at the table.
