This Miso Roast Salmon, Lentil, and Pomegranate Salad is a masterclass in balancing bold flavours with minimal effort. By pairing succulent, umami-rich miso salmon with earthy lentils and a vibrant pomegranate finish, you get a restaurant-standard dish that is surprisingly fast and easy to pull together from scratch.
Method
Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.
Step 1
Mix the miso paste, honey and ginger and garlic paste, half the lime juice, the oil and sesame seeds. Put the salmon fillets on a foil-lined baking tray and spread half of the miso mixture over them. Roast for 10-12 mins until cooked through.
Step 2
Tip the rest of the miso mixture into a bowl. Add the lime zest, vinegar, carrots, pomegranate, onions and coriander. Toss the lentils and toss into the salad. Divide between two plates and add the salmon once cooked through.
