Miso Salmon Fried Rice

Ingredients


















Method


  • 1First, prepare the miso glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together miso paste, soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, and 1 teaspoon of sesame oil. Set aside.


  • 2Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towels. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Sear salmon, skin-side down first if applicable, for 3-4 minutes per side until cooked through and flaky. During the last minute of cooking, brush generously with the miso glaze and let it caramelize slightly.


  • 3Remove salmon from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet (add a little more oil if needed), add remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Sauté the white parts of the green onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger for 1 minute until fragrant.


  • 4Add the chopped kimchi to the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened.


  • 5Add the day-old cooked rice to the skillet, breaking up any clumps. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, ensuring the rice is heated through and well coated with the kimchi mixture. Make a well in the center of the rice.


  • 6Pour the beaten eggs into the well. Scramble quickly until just set, then incorporate into the fried rice.


  • 7Stir in the thawed edamame and the remaining green parts of the green onions. Cook for another 1-2 minutes.


  • 8Serve the kimchi fried rice immediately, topped with the miso-glazed salmon fillets. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds.


  • 9Enjoy this flavorful and satisfying fusion meal.

Notes


  • Day-old or leftover rice works best for fried rice, as fresh rice can become too sticky.

  • Adjust the amount of kimchi to your preference for a milder or more intense tang and heat.

  • For a lower carb option, substitute cauliflower rice for traditional white rice.
