Ingredient notes
- Use skinless salmon for this recipe.
- You can substitute jasmine rice for any steamed rice if preferred.
- Butter can be omitted for a vegan option; just use more coconut oil or a butter substitute.
Tips from Moribyan's video
- Rinse the jasmine rice thoroughly before cooking to remove excess starch for better texture.
- Sear the salmon on medium-high heat to achieve a golden brown crust, and then lower the heat to finish cooking without drying it out.
- Make the spicy mayo first and store it in the fridge while preparing the other components to save time.
