  • 500 gr Steam rice (approximately 2 1/2 cup rice, and preferably warm)
  • 100 gr Spinach

  • 300 gr Salmon
  • 1 Tbsp of Olive oil
  • 1 Tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp Pepper
  • 1 tsp salt
1. Preheat the oven on 350 F, and mix all the ingredient on bake salmon in the pan. Bake for approximately 10 minutes. Or mix all the ingredient except half of the olive oil recipe, and heat the pan, pour the other half of olive oil, and pan fry the salmon with all of the sauce until it cooked.
2. Meanwhile blanch the spinach on boiling water, strain immediately. and wash it under cold water and drain all the water on the spinach with hand, set aside.
3. Slice the lemon skin as thin as possible.
4. Mix the Rice, Spinach, Shredded Salmon and lemon zest in a big bowl, sprinkle with chicken bouillon powder and pepper.

p.s.: Be careful with the chicken bouillon though, as we know most of the chicken bouillon high on MSG, if the rice not tasty enough, we could adjust the flavor with 1 tsp of soy sauce or sweet soy sauce.
