Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Whisk together the miso, honey, 1 tbsp soy sauce and two-thirds of the ginger.
  2. Lay the fish, skin-side down, on a roasting tray and pat dry with kitchen paper. Smooth half the miso dressing down the length of the fish. Roast for 25-30 mins until opaque and flaking easily. Cool for 10 mins, then flake into chunks.
  3. Meanwhile, blend the soya beans in a food processor for 1-2 mins to give a rough textured purée. Scrape into a bowl and stir through the spring onions, lemon zest and juice, remaining ginger and 1 tsp sesame oil.
  4. Put the cucumber in a bowl with the remaining 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp sesame oil, the sesame seeds and caster sugar; toss well to coat.
  5. Spoon the bean mash onto a platter and top with the flaked fish, cucumber and watercress. Finish with the remaining miso dressing, and serve with cooked basmati rice if serving as a main course, if you like.
  • Tip: Marinate the salmon in the miso dressing and make the bean mash and cucumber up to 24 hrs in advance. Store individually, covered in the fridge, then cook and assemble when ready to serve.
