• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter and a dash of olive oil over a medium heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1 minute. • Add the water and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil. Add jasmine rice. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from the heat. Keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!
• While the rice is cooking, thinly slice carrot into half-moons. • Trim green beans. • In a small bowl, combine Japanese style dressing and mayonnaise. Set aside.
• Spread mixed sesame seeds over a plate. Pat salmon dry with paper towel, then drizzle with a little olive oil and season with salt and pepper. • Press salmon, skin-side down, into the sesame seeds to coat. TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan! TIP: Add another dash of water if the pan gets dry!
• Heat a medium frying pan over medium-high heat. Add carrot, green beans, ginger paste and a dash of water and cook, stirring, until starting to soften, 3-4 minutes. Add the soy sauce and cook, 1-2 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
• Wipe out the pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When the oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side (depending on thickness). Transfer to a plate to rest. TIP: Cook salmon in batches if your pan is getting crowded.
• Divide the garlic rice between plates. • Top with ginger veggies and sesame-crusted salmon. • Serve with Japanese mayo. Enjoy!
