Cooking Steps
• Finely chop garlic. • In a medium saucepan, melt the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. Cook garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. • Add jasmine rice, the water and a generous pinch of salt. Stir, then bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 12 minutes, then remove from heat. Keep covered until rice is tender and 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. • Cut broccoli (including the stalk!) into small florets. • Slice lime into wedges. Set aside.
• In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Stir-fry carrot and broccoli with a splash of water until softened, 5-6 minutes. • Season with salt and pepper. • Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.
• Return frying pan to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Pat salmon dry with paper towel, then season on both sides. • When oil is hot, cook salmon, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side (depending on thickness).
TIP: Patting the salmon skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!
• Meanwhile, combine coconut milk, ginger paste, the brown sugar and the soy sauce in a small saucepan. • Cook over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until sauce is warmed through and thickened slightly, 2-3 minutes.
• Divide garlic rice and veggies between plates. Top with seared salmon. • Spoon over ginger-coconut sauce. • Serve with lime wedges. Enjoy!
