Cook Time
13 min
Ingredients
- 2 salmon fillets
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- Sea salt
- Pepper
- Broth
- 1 small cube of ginger peeled
- 2 cloves of garlic - peeled and crushed
- 1 small onion - peeled and finely sliced
- 1 tablespoon miso (can add more)
- 2 1/2 cups of water
- 1 bunch of chinese broccoli - stalks removed (normal broccoli or other asian greens are fine)
- 1 pack enoki mushrooms - base removed (can find in most supermarkets)
- 2 tsp Tamari or soy sauce
- 1/2 Lime
Instructions
- I don't normally cook to time limits but this is just to demonstrate how easy it is to pull together in 15 minutes.
- Place all ingredients for broth in pan, bring to boil and continue to boil for about 12 minutes.
- At the same time heat coconut oil in pan, sprinkle salmon on both sides with salt and pepper and add to pan when pan is hot and oil has melted. Cook on a high heat for 1 minute then turn down to moderate temperature for 5 minutes (less if you like your salmon rare in the middle). Turn up heat and flip salmon. Cook on high heat for one minute and turn down to medium temperature for 4 minutes.
- 2 minutes after flipping salmon and while broth is boiling - steam chinese broccoli and mushrooms over broth. Remove after 1 -2 minutes. Turn off broth and pour into 2 bowls, distributing mushrooms and broccoli evenly.
- Top with salmon.
- Add tspn of tamari to each bowl and squeeze lime over salmon.
- Enjoy!
- Option - You can also add soba noodles or rice noodles.
