Instructions

1. Rinse the rice under cold water until it runs clear. Put it in a small pot with cold water and a pinch of salt.
2. Bring to a boil, then cover and reduce to the lowest heat. Cook for 12 minutes.
3. Turn off the heat and let the rice steam, covered, for 4 minutes. Fluff with a fork before serving.
4. Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger and chilli flakes for the glaze.
5. Pat the salmon dry and season lightly with salt and pepper.
6. Heat oil in a non-stick or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat. Place the fillets skin-side down and cook undisturbed for 4 minutes.
7. Flip the fillets, reduce the heat to medium and pour in the glaze. Baste constantly until it bubbles, thickens and coats the salmon, about 2 minutes.
8. In a second pan, heat sesame oil over medium heat. Add the broccolini with 1 to 2 tablespoons of water, cover and steam-sauté for 2 minutes until bright green and tender-crisp. Finish with a splash of soy sauce and a squeeze of lemon juice.
9. Serve the rice topped with the salmon, the greens and any remaining pan sauce, garnished with sesame seeds and a lime wedge.
