Ingredients

Sauces & Seasonings

  • 1 tablespoon sake (Japanese cooking wine)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon mirin (sweet Japanese rice wine)
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon toasted white sesame seeds

Other

  • 400 g cooked Japanese short-grain rice
  • 180 g salmon fillet
  • 1 g shredded nori

Instructions

  1. 1

    Pat salmon fillet dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt.

  2. 2

    Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Place salmon fillet skin-side down (if applicable) and cook for 4 minutes until crispy.

  3. 3

    Flip salmon fillet and cook for another 3 minutes, or until cooked through.

  4. 4

    Remove salmon fillet from pan. Let it cool slightly, then remove skin (if desired) and bones. Flake the salmon meat with a fork.

  5. 5

    In the same pan (or a clean one), combine flaked salmon, sake, soy sauce, and mirin. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring gently, until the liquid has mostly evaporated and the salmon flakes are well-coated and slightly dry, about 4 minutes.

  6. 6

    In a large bowl, gently mix the seasoned salmon flakes with the hot cooked rice.

  7. 7

    Serve immediately, garnished with toasted white sesame seeds and shredded nori (if using).
