• 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 salt, then 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 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 a 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!
• Heat a large 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.
TIP: Add another dash of water if the pan gets dry!
• Wipe out pan and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. When 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.
• Divide garlic rice between plates. • Top with ginger veggies and sesame-crusted salmon. • Serve with Japanese mayo. Enjoy!
