Instructions

Step 1

Combine all ingredients for the salad in a medium bowl together, drizzle with olive oil and season with salt. Set aside.

Step 2

Preheat oven to 200°C. Place the sesame seeds in a shallow bowl. Coat each salmon steak in seeds a place on prepared baking sheet (I recommend to drizzle the baking sheet with olive oil to prevent salmon from sticking). Bake in the oven 10-15 minutes or until the salmon is cooked as you like it. While the salmon is baking, mix the soy sauce, honey, ginger and chilli in a small bowl and set aside.

Step 3

Always put a portion of rice in the bowl, then put a portion of salad and place the salmon steak on top. Pour the prepared sauce over the salmon and if you like, you can finish it with chilli mayo. Enjoy!
