Step 1

Mix the marinade ingredients together in a small container with a lid (I used an old takeaway tub). Sit the salmon fillets in the marinade, skin-side up, seal with the lid and refrigerate for 1-12 hours. Remove from the fridge 30 minutes before cooking.

Step 2

When ready to cook, preheat the grill to high and line a baking tray with foil. Remove the salmon from the marinade and lay it skin-side down on the tray. Spoon 2 tbsp of marinade over each fillet. Grill for 12-15 minutes, until the salmon is browned, opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

Step 3

Meanwhile, toast the sesame seeds in a large frying pan for a couple of minutes until golden, then move to a plate. Warm the oil in the same pan over a medium-high heat, then add the cabbage and toss well. Cook for a couple of minutes, allowing to catch and brown, then add the remaining marinade and allow to boil for 2 minutes more, tossing regularly until it reduces. Sprinkle with the sesame oil and ½ the toasted sesame seeds and toss well.

Use tongs to divide the sesame cabbage between 2 plates or shallow bowls. Top with the grilled salmon, then sprinkle the salad onion and remaining sesame seeds over the top. Serve with rice on the side, if liked.
