Ingredients for Salmon Salad with Roasted Sesame Dressing Serves 2 – 3 people
Salmon fillet 250 gr Lettuce 100 gr Cherry tomatoes 80 gr Purple corn 80 gr Corn kernels 50 gr Fresh sea grapes 30 gr Salt 1/4 teaspoon Ground black pepper 1/4 teaspoon Olive oil 2 tablespoons Roasted sesame dressing 1 cup
How to Choose Good Salmon Fillet
Fresh salmon meat should have a bright pink or orange color. If the meat turns darker, it means that it is no longer fresh. Additionally, fresh salmon has a distinctive aroma; avoid those with strange or rancid smells.
A good fillet is one where the meat retains its elasticity; when you press your finger on the fillet, it should leave a dent but quickly return to its original state, indicating that the salmon is still fresh.
Next, you can observe the surface of the fillet; it should be dry, not moist or leaking any strange fluids. The fat lines on the fish should be uniformly colored and bright, not dull or with brown spots.

Searing the Salmon
First, marinate 250gr of salmon fillet with 1/4 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of ground black pepper, using your hands to rub the seasoning evenly over the salmon to absorb the flavors.
Next, heat a pan and add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil. Once the oil is hot, place the salmon fillet in the pan and sear it.

Mix the salad
You just need to layer the prepared ingredients on a plate: lettuce, purple cabbage, cherry tomatoes, seaweed, and add a little boiled corn, then place the freshly seared salmon fillet on top.
Finally, drizzle the roasted sesame sauce over the salad and mix well to enjoy the fresh salmon salad right away.
