Golden, pan-fried nuggets of salmon replace raw fish in our easy take on a Hawaiian Poke bowl. This meal is an absolute staple in my kitchen (Anna here π), you can't go wrong with sticky sushi rice, fresh veggies (a great opportunity to throw in whatever's lying around in the fridge), juicy salmon and a zingy, umami dressing. Ready in 15 minutes and filled with goodness, it's just what I feel like after a long day. I love enjoying with crispy nori sheets and sriracha mayo, but if you can get your hands on some kewpie mayo or fresh sushi-grade salmon, it'll take your bowl to a whole new level.
Based on 4 servings, adjust as needed.
Cut the salmon fillets into 1 inch cubes. Set a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add a third of the sesame oil. Gently fry the cubed salmon until golden on all sides, about 5 minutes in total. Thoroughly wash your chopping board.
Boil the kettle and add the edamame beans to a heat-proof bowl. Pour the boiling water over the edamame and leave to stand for 1 minute. Prep the other toppings by slicing or cubing the avocado (if using), cucumber and radishes.
Combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar and remaining sesame oil in a small bowl to create the dressing.
Cook your sushi rice as per the instructions on the packet.
Add a spoonful of rice to each bowl, arranging the salmon and veggies on top. Drizzle over the dressing and finish with a scatter of sesame seeds, a packet of seaweed and some sriracha mayo (if using). Tuck in and enjoy!
