Teriyaki Salmon Sushi Bowl (Printable Version)

# What You'll Need:

→ Sushi Rice

01 - 180 g sushi rice
02 - 45 ml rice vinegar
03 - 4 g caster sugar
04 - 2.5 g fine salt
05 - 14 g sesame seeds (for toasting and mixing)

→ Teriyaki Salmon

06 - 2 salmon fillets, skin removed and cut into chunks
07 - 30 ml maple syrup
08 - 5 ml sesame oil
09 - 10 ml gluten-free tamari soy sauce
10 - 1 g garlic granules
11 - 5 ml mirin
12 - 4 spring onions, diced

→ Bowls

13 - 150 g edamame beans
14 - Half a ripe avocado, sliced

# Step-by-Step Directions:

01 - Cook sushi rice according to package instructions. In a small bowl, dissolve rice vinegar, caster sugar, and fine salt. When rice is hot, pour dressing over it and gently fluff to combine. Lightly toast sesame seeds in a dry pan and stir into the seasoned rice. Set aside to cool slightly.
02 - Whisk together maple syrup, sesame oil, tamari, garlic granules, and mirin in a small dish. Set aside with salmon chunks and diced spring onions.
03 - Divide the warm (not hot) sushi rice between two serving bowls, filling about two-thirds of each. Arrange edamame beans and avocado slices in the remaining space.
04 - Pour teriyaki mixture into a hot pan and simmer, stirring until it thickens into a glaze. Increase heat to high, add salmon chunks, and stir to coat fully. Sprinkle spring onions over the salmon and cook for a few minutes until glazed and cooked through.
05 - Place the teriyaki-glazed salmon with spring onions atop the sushi rice bowls. Serve immediately, optionally with extra tamari on the side.

# Helpful Notes:

01 - To keep salmon moist, cook over medium-high heat and do not over-stir. Serve rice warm but not hot for best texture.
