Ingredients

200g fresh salmon, cubed
200g mango, cubed
1 medium avocado, cubed
160g rice (jasmine, red, or black), cooked
15g ginger, grated (approx. 1 thumb-sized piece)
2 cloves garlic, grated
1 red chilli, finely chopped (plus extra for serving)
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tsp sesame oil
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1 lemon, juiced
1 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 tsp Chinese 5 spice
--- Topping ---
2 spring onions (greens only), sliced
1 tsp sesame seeds

Method

Get the rice cooking as per pack instructions.

Putting them in separate bowls, chop salmon, mango and avocado into small cubes.

In another bowl, add 2 tbsps olive oil with grated garlic, ginger, lemon juice, minced chilli, a good pinch of salt and pepper, mix. Using a fork, place 2/3 of the sediments over the salmon and pour 2/4 of the dressing. Bring the salmon and dressing together, mixing it well without turning it to mush and place in the fridge.

Pour half of the remaining dressing over the avocados and mix gently.

With the remaining dressing, add 1 tbsp fish sauce, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tsp Chinese 5 spice and mix. When the rice is finished, you can now pour the remaining dressing over it.

Slice spring onion green into thin slices.

Now to serve, you can pile the ingredients into a bowl like Poke bowl style or use the stacking method. To stack you need a ring which is open on both ends. First place in the rice and pat it down, then the Avocado, followed by the mango, a layer of spring onions and finally the salmon. You can now remove the ring and top with spring onion and chilli slices. Sprinkle over sesame seeds.
If you don’t have a ring, you can try using a small bowl, place the ingredients in the opposite order, place a plate over the bowl and flip it over, tapping the bowl before lifting it up. Even if it doesn’t work out, have some fun!

Enjoy!
