Instructions

Begin with the rice. Rinse it well. Meanwhile, pour the water, salt and coconut milk into a saucepan, bring to to the boil and then add the rice. Simmer with the lid over on a medium - low heat for 20 minutes.

While the rice is cooking you can make the dressing. Simply blitz it all together in a food processor until smooth. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking. If it needs a squeeze more lime or a little more salt, don't be afraid to add it.

For the salad mix the avocado, cucumber, feta, lime juice, spring onion, jalapeno and coriander in a bowl.

Whisk the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, ginger, sriracha and salt in a bowl.

Pat the salmon dry with a little paper towel to absorb any excess moisture and then add a little oil to a frying pan and once hot, fry the salmon for 2-3 minutes, until it's golden and crispy all over. Pour in the sauce and cook for 2 more minutes. Keep stirring it as you don't want the honey to burn.

Scoop the rice into bowls, top with the salad and then salmon, drizzle over the sauce and top with the dressing.
