Description

This delightful salad bowl showcases succulent salmon bites paired with a creamy mango-avocado salsa.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 300g salmon fillet, skinless and boneless
  • 1 ripe mango
  • 1 avocado
  • 2 tablespoons red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon green onion, sliced
  • 1 lime, zested and juiced
  • 1 teaspoon black sesame seeds
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper
  • 1 clove garlic (optional)
  • ½ teaspoon chili flakes or sriracha (optional)

Instructions

  1. Start by peeling and dicing the ripe mango into small chunks. Place the mango chunks into a blender along with lime juice, a pinch of salt, and, if you prefer some heat, the garlic or chili. Blend the ingredients until you achieve a smooth purée. Set this aside to enhance the flavors further.
  2. Next, cut the salmon into bite-sized cubes and pat them dry using a paper towel. Toss the cubes with olive oil, salt, and pepper, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
  3. Heat a non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the seasoned salmon cubes to the pan and allow them to cook for about 2-3 minutes per side. During the last minute of cooking, brush a generous amount of the mango sauce over the salmon cubes.
  4. While the salmon is cooking, slice the avocado, red onion, and green onion using a sharp knife.
  5. Finally, in each serving bowl, layer the cooked salmon, slices of avocado, and sprinkle over the sliced red onion and green onion. Drizzle the remaining mango sauce over the top, add a sprinkle of black sesame seeds, and finish with a zest of lime.

Notes

Be attentive while cooking the salmon; overcooking can lead to a dry texture, so watch it closely.
