Poached salmon is a wonderful option if you are looking for something lighter, and what's better, is that it's ready in just 25min. The salmon in this recipe is poached in miso and fish sauce, along with pak choi, mushrooms and spinach.
We've served ours with rice, but you can serve with noodles too. If you like things a little spicier, then use 2 chillies, instead of 1.
Put the rice into a small pan with 400ml (14fl oz) boiling water. Cover, bring to boil, then turn heat low. Cook according to packet instructions.
Step 2
Heat oil in a large shallow pan or wok, add chilli, ginger and garlic and cook for 1-2min. Add miso paste and fish sauce; pour over 500ml (17fl oz) hot water.
Step 3
Add salmon and mushrooms, cover; simmer for 7-8min until fish is just cooked. Steam pak choi and spinach over boiling water for 4-5min. Serve rice, veg and salmon, drizzled with sauce, with lime wedges.
