Ingredients for Sashimi Salad with Soy and Orange

  • 4 oranges

  • 1 or 2 limes

  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce

  • 45ml grapeseed oil

  • 6 cups mâche (lamb's lettuce) leaves

  • 2 cups frisée lettuce, torn into bite-size pieces

  • 1/2 cucumber, peeled, seeded, and thinly sliced (optional)

  • 200g sushi-grade salmon, skin removed

  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds, toasted

How to make Sashimi Salad with Soy and Orange

Grate the zest of 1 orange and the lime into a large bowl. Squeeze 1 tablespoon of juice from the grated orange and 2 tablespoons of juice from the grated lime into the bowl (you may need a second lime to get the 2 tablespoons of juice). Whisk in the soy sauce and the oil. Set the dressing aside.

Use a sharp knife to slice the rind and pith from the remaining oranges. Working over a mixing bowl, cut between the membranes to free the orange segments, letting them drop into the bowl. Pour any juice into a cup and reserve it for another use. Add the mâche, frisée, and cucumbers, if using, to the orange segments. Using a large sharp knife, cut the salmon into 1/3-inch-thick slices. Add the salmon to the bowl. Drizzle with the dressing, and toss gently to coat. Allow the flavours to meld for at least 2 minutes.

Divide the salad among 4 serving plates. Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds, and serve.
