Ingredients

1 serving

  • salmon fillet160 g
  • udon noodles120 g
  • sesame seeds15 g
  • soy sauce20 ml
  • mirin15 ml
  • honey10 g
  • pak choi120 g
  • sesame oil8 g

Method

  1. 1

    Remove the skin from the salmon fillet (160 g), pat it dry and press it onto the sesame seeds (15 g) to form a crust on one side only.

  2. 2

    Reduce the soy sauce (20 ml), mirin (15 ml) and honey (10 g) for 6 minutes over low heat until syrupy: the sauce should coat the back of a spoon.

  3. 3

    Cook the udon noodles (120 g) as per the package, rinse, and toss them with a third of the sauce so they do not stick.

  4. 4

    Heat 4 g of sesame oil and sear the salmon sesame-side down for 2 minutes without touching it, until the seeds turn golden.

  5. 5

    Flip it and finish cooking for 8 minutes in the oven at 150 °C, for a just-pearly core at 45 °C.

  6. 6

    Stir-fry the pak choi (120 g) for 4 minutes with the remaining oil (4 g) and a little sauce.

  7. 7

    Plate the udon, pak choi and salmon, then spoon over the remaining teriyaki.
