Instruction

  • <p>1. Place&nbsp;the rice, stock and miso in a medium saucepan over high heat. Bring to the boil, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 25 minutes or until almost tender. Remove from the heat and allow to steam, covered, for 10 minutes or until tender and the stock&nbsp;is&nbsp;absorbed. Set aside to cool.</p> <p>2. To make the dressing, mix the sake,&nbsp;mirin&nbsp;and sugar in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Simmer for about 4 minutes then add the miso and ginger and continue to simmer until thick and&nbsp;caramelised. Remove from heat and set aside.</p> <p>3. Toss the&nbsp;broccolini&nbsp;in the oil and garlic. Grill for 3 to 4 minutes or until charred and tender. When the&nbsp;broccolini&nbsp;looks almost done, add the snap peas and cook for 1 minute. Remove from heat and add to a large bowl with the rice and&nbsp;edamame. While the dressing is still warm, add to the bowl and toss to coat. Add the avocado and micro greens and&nbsp;gently spoon onto a serving platter. Season with salt and pepper if needed (be careful when&nbsp;seasoning&nbsp;this salad as the saltiness of miso can vary). Serve&nbsp;warm.</p>
