The method

Step by step

  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.

    About 5 min

  2. 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.

  3. 3

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

    About 1 min

  4. 4

    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.

  5. 5

    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. 6

    Fluff the cooked rice with a fork and set aside.

    About 1 min

  7. 7

    In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and maple syrup to create the dressing.

    About 2 min

  8. 8

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

    About 1 min

  9. 9

    Arrange the roasted salmon fillets, diced cucumber, grated carrot, and sliced avocado over the rice.

    About 2 min

    Cook’s note: Arrange ingredients neatly for an appealing presentation.

  10. 10

    Drizzle the dressing over each bowl and sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

    About 1 min

  11. 11

    Serve immediately and enjoy your salmon power bowl.
