Method

  1. Stir the soy, mirin and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Put the salmon in a freezer bag or bowl, add the marinade and leave for 10 minutes. Cook the basmati rice following pack instructions, adding the edamame and mangetout for the last 2 minutes of cooking.
  2. Grill the salmon for 5 minutes, spooning over any leftover marinade until glazed and just cooked through. Drain the rice and veg then toss with 2 tsp sesame oil, another splash of soy and the spring onion and chilli. Serve with the salmon and a dipping sauce.

    I used baby sweetcorn which came in the packet with the mangeout instead of the edamame beans. The rice was quite bland so served with some chilli sauce which pepped it up a bit.

    This could be bland without some extra flavour. I replaced the soy beans (didn't have any) with a selection of green vegetables (beans, peas broccoli and mange tout) and also added chilli sauce. The end result was superb. May try again using noodles and think the teriyaki marinade would work just as well with chicken. Good simple recipe with room to improve to meet your tastes - and what you have in your food cupboard.

    I put extra soy and sesame oil on the rice to give it more flavour. We really enjoyed it.

    Loved it - so healthy and tasty - having read the other comments I added some stock to the rice water. We really enjoyed it.
