Ingredients

  • 130g Salmon Fillet
  • 150g quinoa
  • 80g pak choi
  • 80g mushrooms
  • 15g miso paste
  • 5g ginger
  • 5g honey
  • 3g sesame oil
  • 5g sesame seeds

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the pak choi and mushrooms, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Place the salmon on a lined tray, brush with some of the sauce and bake at 200°C for 12-14 minutes until it flakes easily.

  4. 4

    Whisk the miso, grated ginger, honey and sesame oil with a tablespoon of warm water. Brush over the protein and drizzle the rest over the bowl.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the pak choi and mushrooms for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: quinoa first, then the veg and salmon, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the sesame seeds.
