This hearty salad is a tasty combination of tender salmon, soba noodles and healthy greens.
Ingredients
- 3 (180g each) salmon fillets, skin removed
- 200g snow peas, trimmed, sliced diagonally
- 250g soba noodles (see note)
- 4 green onions, thinly sliced
- 60g baby spinach leaves, trimmed
- 2 tablespoons canola oil
- 1 1/2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon salt-reduced soy sauce
Method
- Step 1Preheat oven to 180°C. Place a large sheet of baking paper on a large, flat baking tray. Place all the fillets in the centre of baking paper. Fold paper to enclose salmon and tuck in edges. Bake for 5 minutes. Stand for 5 minutes.
- Step 2Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of salted water to the boil over high heat. Add snow peas and cook for 1 minute. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to a sieve. Refresh under cold water. Pat dry with paper towels. Place in a large bowl.
- Step 3Return water to the boil. Add noodles and cook for 4 to 5 minutes or until just tender. Drain. Rinse under warm water. Add to snow peas.
- Step 4Open paper parcels. Flake salmon into large chunks. Add to noodles with green onion and spinach. Combine canola oil, vinegar, sesame oil and soy sauce in a screw-top jar. Secure lid and shake well. Drizzle over salad. Toss to combine. Serve.
