Method

Cook the Rice

Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear — this removes excess starch and helps it stay fluffy. Add to a small pot with cold water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to the lowest heat. Cook for 12 minutes, then turn off the heat and let it steam for 4 minutes (lid on). Fluff with a fork just before serving.

Mix the Glaze

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and chilli flakes. Set aside — you’ll pour this over the fish in the pan.
Sear the Salmon

Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper. Heat a non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat with oil. Place the fillets, skin-side down, and cook undisturbed for 4 minutes — this crisps the skin and adds structure. Flip, reduce the heat to medium, and pour in the glaze. Baste continuously as the sauce bubbles — it will thicken and coat the salmon in about 2 minutes.

Cook the Greens

Blanch the greens in boiling salted water for 2 minutes, then drain. In a second pan (or the salmon pan), over medium heat, add the broccolini, soy sauce and sesame seeds. Sauté for 2 minutes un

Assemble & Serve

Spoon the fluffy rice onto plates or into containers. Add the glazed salmon and drizzle any remaining pan sauce over the top. Finish with the greens, sesame seeds, and a wedge of lime. Serve immediately or store in the fridge up to 3 days if prepping ahead.
