Succulent salmon glazed with homemade honey teriyaki sauce, served on creamy coconut spinach with a hint of chilli. Accompanied by jasmine rice with white and black sesame seeds.

Method

  1. Teriyaki salmon with coconut spinach, step 1: Brine the salmon

    Brine the salmon

    Bring half the water to the boil, dissolve the salt and sugar in it. Add the remaining cold water and leave to cool. Place the salmon in a dish, cover with the brine, cover and leave to stand in the fridge for approx. 30 mins.

  2. Teriyaki salmon with coconut spinach, step 2: Rice

    Rice

    Rinse the rice in a sieve under cold water and drain well. Bring the water and salt to the boil, add the rice, cover and simmer over a low heat for approx. 15 mins. Remove the pan from the hob, leave the rice to rest, covered, for approx. 5 mins, then fluff up with a fork.

  3. Teriyaki salmon with coconut spinach, step 3: Teriyaki sauce

    Teriyaki sauce

    Bring the sake, mirin and sugar to the boil and simmer for approx. 5 mins. Stir in the cornflour and simmer for approx. 2 mins until the sauce thickens slightly. Stir in the honey and soy sauce and remove the pan from the hob.

  4. Teriyaki salmon with coconut spinach, step 4: Fry the salmon

    Fry the salmon

    Preheat the oven to 100°C. Remove the salmon from the brine, pat dry and season with pepper. Heat the oil in a frying pan and sear the salmon for approx. 1 min on each side. Transfer to an ovenproof dish and cook in the middle of the oven for approx. 15 mins.

  5. Teriyaki salmon with coconut spinach, step 5: Coconut sauce

    Coconut sauce

    Bring the coconut milk and all the ingredients up to and including the salt to the boil in a small pan. Stir in the cornflour and simmer for approx. 1 min until the sauce thickens.

  6. Teriyaki salmon with coconut spinach, step 6: Spinach

    Spinach

    Warm the sesame oil in a large frying pan. Sweat the spring onion and chilli for approx. 1 min. Add the spinach in batches and leave to wilt for approx. 3 mins. Fold in the coconut sauce and heat through briefly.

  7. Teriyaki salmon with coconut spinach, step 7: To serve

    To serve

    Divide the rice between plates and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Add the coconut spinach alongside, place the salmon on top and drizzle with the teriyaki sauce.

Tip:
The salmon is perfect when it is still slightly translucent in the centre. If you prefer it cooked through, leave it in the oven for approx. 5 mins longer.
Variation:
Use young leaf spinach instead of root spinach; it wilts more quickly.
Goes well with:
Lime wedges and fresh coriander.
