About this recipe

This lightened teriyaki salmon bowl combines omega-3 rich salmon, fibre-packed brown rice and colourful steamed vegetables in one perfectly balanced meal. A quick homemade glaze keeps the sugar low while delivering all the sweet-savoury flavour of classic Japanese teriyaki.

Method

  1. 1

    Cook the brown rice according to the package instructions and keep warm.

  2. 2

    Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, ginger and garlic to make the teriyaki glaze.

  3. 3

    Steam the broccoli and carrot for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp, then set aside.

  4. 4

    Heat the sesame oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat and sear the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side.

  5. 5

    Pour the teriyaki glaze over the salmon and simmer for 1-2 minutes until it thickens and coats the fish.

  6. 6

    Divide the warm brown rice between two bowls.

  7. 7

    Top each bowl with salmon, broccoli, carrot and sliced avocado.

  8. 8

    Garnish with sesame seeds and spring onions, then serve immediately.

Tips

  • Choose wild-caught salmon for a higher omega-3 content and firmer texture.
  • Cook a batch of brown rice in advance to get this bowl on the table in under 15 minutes.
  • Swap honey for maple syrup and reduce the amount to lower the sugar even further.
