EVERY RECIPE DESERVES
A Little Love Letter
This dish is like a hug in a bowl – a refreshing and vibrant mix of flavors that will take your taste buds on a little adventure. Perfect for when you’re craving something light yet satisfying, this bowl is loaded with fresh veggies like juicy mango, crisp red cabbage, and tender edamame, all sitting on a bed of fluffy rice. And the kicker? A drizzle of spicy mayo sauce that ties everything together with just the right amount of heat.
To serve, grab a big, beautiful bowl and start with a generous layer of rice. Arrange the colorful veggies on top – think creamy avocado, bright mango, and that gorgeous purple cabbage. Lay your protein of choice (like tender salmon) over the top, and then drizzle on the spicy mayo sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and a little wakame salad for that extra touch. Serve it chilled and watch your guests (or yourself) light up with every bite!
Got leftovers? Store each component separately in airtight containers to keep everything fresh. The rice and veggies will last about 2-3 days in the fridge. Just keep the sauce in a small jar and give it a good shake before using it again. It’s best not to store thawed raw salmon. If you can’t finish it, cook it and enjoy it the next day or later the same day.

- Start by washing the rice until the water runs clear, then cook it in a rice cooker or small pot. Once it’s done, mix in rice vinegar and salt.
- Place the edamame in a small bowl, cover with hot water, and let it sit for 5 minutes. Drain the water afterward.
- For the spicy mayo sauce, peel the ginger and garlic, and grate them into a bowl. Add the rest of the sauce ingredients and mix everything together until smooth. Set aside.
- Wash and dry the cucumber, then slice it thinly. Remove the outer leaves of the red cabbage, cut it into quarters, and finely grate it. Wash the radishes and slice them thinly or use a mandoline. Peel the mango and cut it into pieces. Scoop the avocado out of its skin, drizzle it with lime juice, and cut it into cubes. Arrange the sliced fruits and veggies on a plate for later.
- Rinse and pat dry the salmon, then cut it into cubes with a sharp knife.
- In a deep bowl, start by layering the rice. Place the wakame salad in the center, then arrange the other components around it in a circle on top of the rice. Sprinkle the salmon with black and white sesame seeds and add a bit of cress. Place nori sheets on the side.
- Serve the sauce in a small bowl on the side, or drizzle it directly over the bowl.

Oh that sounds so good! Cooked prawns are such a smart swap. Happy it still turned out really well and was as quick as promised!
