Method
- 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
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
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
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
Flip it and finish cooking for 8 minutes in the oven at 150 °C, for a just-pearly core at 45 °C.
- 6
Stir-fry the pak choi (120 g) for 4 minutes with the remaining oil (4 g) and a little sauce.
- 7
Plate the udon, pak choi and salmon, then spoon over the remaining teriyaki.
