Yummy meals aren’t just for the weekend. Make our rendition of Salmon Takikomi Gohan (salmon mixed rice) during your next WFH day when you’re craving something delicious you can make in between those dreaded morning meetings.
Ingredients:
1 Portion of Blue Circle Atlantic Salmon, defrosted
1 cup of frozen green peas
Quarter of a medium white onion, thinly sliced
One handful of dried shiitake mushrooms, rehydrated and sliced
One handful of wakame seaweed, rehydrated and roughly chopped
One cup of white rice
Quarter cup of mixed grain rice (optional, if not using, sub for more white rice)
Toasted white sesame seeds for garnish
1 small stock of green onions, thinly sliced for garnish
2 teaspoons of low sodium soy sauce, adjust to taste
2 teaspoons of toasted sesame oil, adjust to taste
Salt and pepper, adjust to taste
Instructions:
-Thaw salmon in fridge overnight according to package instructions.
-Wash white rice, and multigrain rice if using, thoroughly until water runs clear.
-Put the rice aside to soak while preparing other ingredients.
-Soak a handful of wakame seaweed, as well as a handful of dried shiitake mushrooms, in two separate bowls. Set aside for around 30 mins.
-The wakame seaweed and shiitake mushrooms should have increased in size. Evaluate if more soaking is needed to fully rehydrate. If thoroughly rehydrated, squeeze out the excess water and set aside.
-It’s time to cut up your ingredients! Roughly chop the wakame seaweed, slice the shiitake mushrooms, white onion, and green onion. Set aside.
-Rinse the rice one last time, then add to a rice cooker pot with one cup of water.
-Add frozen green peas, wakame seaweed, shiitake mushrooms, white onion, and salmon to the pot. Add a dash—about a tablespoon— of water on top of the ingredients before cooking.
-Close the rice cooker and set to cook.
-After the rice is cooked, add thinly sliced green onions, sesame oil, soy sauce, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly, making sure to break the salmon apart into small pieces.
-Adjust seasonings to your liking and enjoy!
