20 Easy Ways To Make Salmon And Rice Recipes

20-MINUTE INSTANT POT SALMON AND RICE BOWL

Steps:

• Combine the rice, 2 cups water, 2 tablespoons vinegar, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a 6-quart Instant Pot®. Place the salmon on top and follow the manufacturer's guide for locking the lid and preparing to cook. Set to pressure cook on high for 3 minutes.
• After the pressure-cook cycle is complete, follow the manufacturer's guide for natural release. After 8 minutes, being careful of any remaining steam, unlock and remove the lid.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice the carrot, scallions, cucumbers and radishes or daikon and place in a large bowl. Toss with the remaining 3 tablespoons rice vinegar, soy sauce and sesame oil. Right before serving, toss with the greens. Divide the salmon and rice between four bowls, top with salad and sprinkle with the sesame seeds or furikake.

FRIED RICE WITH SIMPLE BAKED SALMON

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray.
• Season the salmon with salt and pepper and place it on the prepared baking sheet. Bake the salmon in the oven until cooked through, 10 to 12 minutes. Remove from the oven and keep warm.
• Heat a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add about 1/2 tablespoon of the butter and crack the eggs into the pan, stirring with a metal spatula to scramble and chop them finely. Remove the eggs from the pan.
• Add 1 tablespoon of the remaining butter to the same pan and saute the onion and carrot until softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and the cooked rice. Stir well, mixing the vegetables and rice together. Fry for a few minutes, mixing constantly with the spatula. Add the eggs and mix well. Add the soy sauce and keep stirring. Turn off the heat.
• Transfer the fried rice to a plate, top with the salmon, sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.

SALMON EGG-FRIED RICE

Steps:

• Mix the ginger, garlic, soy and vinegar, and set aside. Heat a large pan or wok and add 1 tbsp oil, the vegetables and salmon. Fry the salmon for 2 mins each side until it begins to turn opaque. Tip in the rice and stir, flaking the fish into large pieces, then move everything to the side of the pan.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan, crack in the eggs and stir to roughly scramble them. Once cooked, stir through the rice and pour over the soy marinade. Season and leave to bubble away for a few mins more, so that all the rice is coated in the sauce. Serve in bowls with hot sauce for drizzling.

EASY SALMON SUSHI RICE BOWL

Steps:

• Tip the sushi rice into a medium saucepan, cover with 200ml water and add a pinch of salt. Put the pan on the hob and turn the heat to high. Wait for the water to boil, then reduce the heat to very low, cover the pan with a lid and leave to gently cook for 15 mins.
• After 15 mins turn off the heat, fluff up the rice with a fork, then return the lid to the pan and leave for another 5 mins, the rice will continue to cook. After 5 mins, check the rice is cooked - it should have absorbed all the water and be soft but not mushy. Stir the sugar and vinegar through the rice, cover with the lid again and leave to keep warm while you prepare the other ingredients.
• Fill a small pan halfway with water, put it on the hob and bring the water to a gentle boil. Add the edamame beans, cook for 3 mins, then carefully drain.
• Peel the carrot and discard the outer skin, then keep peeling the flesh to create lots of carrot ribbons.
• Thinly slice the radishes. Cut the cucumber into batons, then thinly slice lengthways.
• With your hands, break the salmon into small pieces - look out for any bones and throw these away.
• Divide the warm rice between two bowls and arrange the other ingredients on top, then drizzle with the soy sauce and sesame seeds, and add a few pieces of sushi ginger, if using.
