Cooking Steps

Cook the rice
1

• Add the water to a medium saucepan and bring to the boil. • Add jasmine rice and a pinch of salt. Stir, cover with a lid and reduce heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove pan from heat. • Keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10-15 minutes. • Stir through Japanese style dressing and half the mixed sesame seeds.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam, so don't peek!

2

• While the rice is cooking, trim pea pods, then thinly slice lengthways. • Roughly chop Asian greens. • In a large bowl, combine pea pods, shredded cabbage mix and sesame dressing. Season to taste. Set aside. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Stir-fry Asian greens until just wilted, 2-3 minutes. Season. Transfer to a plate.

Cook the salmon
3

• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. Pat salmon dry with paper towel, then season both sides with salt and pepper. • When oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side (depending on thickness). • Remove pan from heat, then add ponzu, turning salmon to coat.

TIP: Patting the salmon skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!

4

• Divide sesame rice between bowls. • Top with slaw, stir-fried greens and ponzu salmon, spooning over any remaining sauce from the pan. • Sprinkle with remaining sesame seeds. • Top with pickled ginger, crispy shallots and coconut sweet chilli mayonnaise to serve. Enjoy!
