Notes
- If you want to make a super quick version of this, then use microwave rice.
- One of the most common mistakes people make when making this is overcooking the rice. Overcooked rice can become mushy and lose its texture, making for an unappetising dish. To avoid this, be sure to follow the instructions on the package carefully and use the correct amount of water.
- Another common mistake is overcooking the salmon. Overcooked salmon can become dry and tough, which can ruin the dish. To avoid this, be sure to cook the salmon just until it is opaque in the centre and flakes easily with a fork.
- Using the wrong seasonings can also ruin a salmon rice bowl. While it can be tempting to add a lot of different spices and herbs, it's important to choose seasonings that complement the flavour of the salmon and rice. Some good options include soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil.
- Using low-quality ingredients can also make this dish less enjoyable. Be sure to choose fresh salmon and high-quality rice to ensure the best flavour and texture. Additionally, using fresh vegetables and herbs can add a lot of flavour to the dish.
