- 200 g Konjac noodles (shirataki)
- 170 g Salmon fillet
- 100 g Spinach
- 1 tbsp Toasted sesame oil
- 10 g Ginger (optional)
- 2 tsp Japanese soy sauce (koikuchi shoyu) (optional)
- 5 g Sesame seeds (optional)
- 15 g Scallions (optional)
Method
- Pat the salmon dry, grate the ginger over it and slice the spring onions thin.
- Roast the salmon at 200°C (400°F) for eleven minutes, until the flesh has gone matt and parts under gentle pressure.
- Drain the konjac noodles and rinse them hard under a cold tap to take the brine smell off, then dry-fry them in a bare pan for four minutes until they squeak and stop giving up water.
- Add the sesame oil and the spinach to the dried noodles and turn them until the leaves collapse, about a minute, then take the pan off the heat and season with the soy.
- Break the salmon into big flakes over the noodles, keeping some pieces whole, and finish with the spring onion and sesame seeds.
