The method

Step by step

1
Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
About 5 min
2
Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel. Place them on the prepared baking sheet.
About 1 min
Cook’s note: Drying the salmon helps the skin get crispy if you leave it on.

Drizzle the salmon with olive oil, then season generously with salt and black pepper.

Roast the salmon in the preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until cooked through and flaky.
About 15 min
Cook’s note: Cooking time may vary based on the thickness of your fillets.

While the salmon roasts, combine the white rice and water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes, or until all water is absorbed.
About 15 min
Cook’s note: Do not lift the lid during cooking to ensure even steaming.
6
Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and set aside.
About 1 min
7
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and maple syrup to create the dressing.
About 2 min

To assemble the bowls, divide the cooked rice between two serving bowls.
