Miso Salmon with Rice and Vegetables

This is one of those examples of how your Thermomix and traditional methods of cooking can work in perfect harmony. Yes, steaming salmon in your Varoma is wonderful. But sometimes you need the caramelisation and flavour development that comes from oven baking.

In this recipe, you begin by making a simple miso marinade.

Then, your Thermomix goes to work steaming rice and vegetables while your oven takes care of the salmon.

If you own an air fryer, and are only cooking for one or two people, I think you could easily cook your salmon in the air fryer, and reduce the quantity of rice and vegetables by half.
