• 1 salmon fillet

• Microwaveable rice

• 1-2 tbsp Soy sauce

• 1-2 tbsp Mayonnaise (full fat/light what ever you fancy)

• 2 tsp Siracha

• Scallions

• Veg to bulk out the meal that little bit more (use whatever you have in the fridge - for me this was red peppers and beetroot)

• 1/3 Avocado as a topping

• Optional toasted sesame seeds to garnish

Method:

• Cook the salmon whatever way you like. For me this was in the oven at ~180 degrees for approx 25-35 mins. I like to let my salmon get quite crispy.

• Microwave your rice (super quick and easy)

• Optional: For the veg I briefly stir - fried these in a pan but depending on what veg you are using and how much time you have this step is optional

• Mash up the salmon with the rice, veg, soya sauce, mayonnaise and siracha.

• Sprinkle with the sesame seeds and add the avocado on top.

Now sit back and enjoy!

I love this recipe as I find it very, very simple and very, very quick!!! And it also gets in my omega 3s for the week from the oily fish.
