This dish was introduced to me via a good friend and she picked it up from her mother. Its one of my favorite dishes because it's super easy to make, it feels nutritious and wholesome and because it includes rice which I could eat for breakfast, lunch, snack and dinner, in-fact once upon I did exactly that. Way back when....
My friend taught me to use salmon for this dish but I imagine you could also sure tuna steak or beef. And you would marinate and cook it in much the same way as with the salmon, only perhaps slightly longer? Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
Here is what you need to make the dish for 2 people:
2-4 sheets of nori seaweed (same used to roll sushi in)
400-600 grams fresh salmon (tuna steak, tofu or beef)
2 tbsp Japanese soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil or safflower oil
0,5-2 tsp wasabi paste (amount depends on how much of a fire heat you want)
2,5 dl rice*
400-500 grams green beans
optional - roasted sesame seeds (buy sesame seeds with their sell still on and toast/roast them in a dry pan till they start popping and smell toasted. place to cool somewhere before putting in a glass jar or tupperware).
* I used brown basmati rice, usually I prefer round brown rice as its slightly sticker as with white sushi rice. You can also use regular white rice, but make sure its good quality either pandan or basmati or real sushi rice.
