Ingredients

Salmon Quinoa Salad

1. Rinse the quinoa slightly with tap water, right?

Washing is healthier

2. Heat the milk pan, add a little olive oil, add the quinoa and stir-fry until the water evaporates.

3. During the period, we can use salt and pepper (or our favorite flavor powder) for simple seasoning.

4. When we heard a slight "popping" sound from the bottom of the pot, it proved that the water had evaporated. Then we can pour 2 times the water of quinoa (the broth is better).

5. When the pot is boiling, turn to medium heat, cover and cook for 15 minutes.

6. Then turn off the heat and simmer for 15 minutes

7. This completes the production of quinoa.

8. Cut the back of the salmon fillet with a width of 5 mm, and cut it to about half the thickness as much as possible.

Before cooking, season the fish skin side briefly with salt and pepper.

9. Heat a nonstick pan and add some olive oil.

Garlic cloves are a good tool for detecting oil temperature.

10. With the skin facing down, fry the surface of the salmon over high heat until golden brown.

At the beginning, you need to hold the fish with your fingers to prevent it from curling due to heat.

11. While frying, you can season the bottom of the fish.

12. Dang~Dang~Dang, come to a perfect turn

At this time, we can turn off the heat and use the remaining temperature to fry the bottom of the fish for 30-60 seconds (depending on personal preference)

13. Let's take a look at the preparation of salad dressing. This time we will use the simplest combination: balsamic vinegar, honey and olive oil.

Note: Black vinegar is the same as red wine. The better the glucose in this batch and the older the vintage, the more mellow the quality. (Here I use 10 years of Italy

14. When making a salad dressing with olive oil, the only thing you should pay attention to is to stir with egg extract while adding olive oil.

15. Put the salad dish on the bottom layer, then spread quinoa (either cold or hot), top with salad dressing, and top with salmon is a perfect healthy dinner.

16. The quinoa that will be introduced in this recipe is from Canada

Tips:
Of course, quinoa can also be served with tofu sushi, caviar (thank you for the souvenir brought back by my friend in Iceland), pork floss, and minced eggs to make a Japanese fusion dish.

Or maybe a Chinese style Yangzhou fried quinoa and quinoa steamed meat are very delicious and healthy. In future recipes, I will introduce more dishes based on quinoa for everyone to choose from.
