Miso Honey Glazed Salmon with One Pot Rice with Lentils and Quinoa and Steamed Greens

Recipe by: Martyna Angell

If you’re after a healthy and delicious meal that can be ready in 20 minutes, then this airfryer glazed salmon with our One Pot Rice is surely a winner. Don’t have an air fryer? You can bake the salmon in the oven or in an oven grill (on a medium setting). Any steamed greens will work well here.

Serves: 4

Ingredients:

• 1 packet of One Pot Rice with Lentils and Quinoa
• 4 x 180g salmon portions, evenly sized
• 1 tablespoon white (shiro) miso paste*
• 1 tablespoon water
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1 bunch bok choy, quartered legthways
• 1 bunch broccolini, ends trimmed slightly
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Optional

• ½ teaspoon sesame seeds
• ½ teaspoon garlic granules

Method:

1. Place One Pot Rice packet contents in a medium saucepan and add water. Cover and bring to a boil, reduce heat to a gentle simmer and cook covered for 15 minutes, until the rice and lentils are cooked and the water is absorbed. 
2. Meanwhile, transfer salmon to airfryer (see TIP below) or if baking, preheat oven to 180°C and place the fish on a paper lined baking tray.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the miso paste and water until smooth. Add olive oil and honey and mix well. Baste the glaze over the fish, covering the top and sides thoroughly with the paste. 
4. Airfry the fish for 10 minutes at 170°C or bake for 12 minutes at 180°C in a preheated oven. 
5. Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan filled with about an inch of water to the boil. Place a steam basket on top and add the greens. Steam for 10 minutes.
6. To serve, fluff up One Pot Rice with a fork and divide between serving plates. Top with salmon and serve with steamed greens on the side, drizzled with soy sauce and sprinkled with sesame seeds and garlic granules, if using.

TIP: For mess-free airfryer cooking we use a small spring-form cake tin that fits inside the airfryer and place the fish in it (you might want to get one specifically for this purpose). It aids easy removal from the airfryer. Simply lift out the tin using tongs, remove the springform ring carefully as it will be hot and serve the fish using a flat spatula.



*Note: you can get white (shiro) miso paste from most supermarkets or Asian grocers.
