Instructions

For the rice

  1. Pot over medium heat and add olive oil. Once warm, add diced onion and cook 4-5 minutes to soften.
  2. Stir in turmeric powder, curry powder and salt and cook for 1 minute, stirring frequently.
  3. Stir in the rice and stir frequently, until the rice is evenly coated, about 1 minute.
  4. Stir in the broth and bring to a simmer over medium high heat. Turn to low heat and cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 15-18 minutes. Remove from the heat, fluff with a fork and put the lid on for 10 minutes.  After 10 minutes, remove the lid and fluff with a fork and set aside.

For the salmon

  1. Prepare the other bowl toppings first and set aside (slice radishes and set aside other ingredients depending on your toppings preference: labneh, hummus, tabbouleh, pickled radishes, mixed olives).
  2. While the rice is cooking, prepare the salmon. Pat the salmon dry with a paper towel and then cut the salmon into 1 inch cubes. Add the cubes of salmon to a bowl and drizzle with 1 tbsp avocado oil.
  3. Dunk the salmon cubes into the breadcrumbs mixture, pressing gently to adhere the breadcrumbs to the salmon and set aside on a plate.
  4. Add the salmon cubes to the air fryer basket and make sure they’re not overlapping (air fry in batches if needed). Air fry 400F for 6-8 minutes (depending on level of doneness you prefer), flipping halfway through.
  5. Prepare the bowl.

Notes

  • Feel free to mix and match the toppings to your liking! Other delicious topping ideas: pickled onions, pickled hot peppers, Greek yogurt, Greek Tzatziki Sauce or tomatoes
  • If you don't want to make the rice, swap for another grain of choice OR serve on lettuce instead.
