Method

  1. To prepare the rice place the rice in a saucepan and rinse it in water several times to remove the starch. You will know when it’s done as the water will run clear. 
  2. Drain the rice and cover with the measured amount of water. Leave to stand for a minimum of 30 minutes to absorb water.
  3. While the rice is standing prepare the salmon marinade. Place the garlic, spring onions, sweet chill sauce and gluten free soy sauce in a bowl and mix together.
  4. Pour the marinade over the salmon and then reserve until needed. You can marinade the salmon up to a day in advance if you wish.
  5. To cook the rice, bring the water and rice to the boil, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Keep the lid on and simmer for 12 minutes. 
  6. Turn the heat off, with the rice still covered with the lid, and let it stand for 10-15 minutes.
  7. While the rice is standing, bake the salmon in a hot oven for 10- 12 minutes.
  8. Add the sushi vinegar to the cooked rice and gently fold in the vinegar to taste, taking care not to crushing the grains.
  9. Serve the salmon and rice with vegetables of your choice.
