Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Rinse the sushi rice really well and put in a small saucepan covered with 400ml cold water (for 200g rice). Bring to the boil, then simmer for 10 mins with the lid on. Remove from the heat and keep the lid on for 15 mins before transferring to a serving bowl.

Step 2

Meanwhile, pour boiling water over the edamame and leave to defrost until the rice is cooked. To make the dressing, combine the vegetable oil, pomegranate molasses and soy sauce and set aside.

Step 3

Heat the sesame oil in a non-stick pan and add the nori. Cook for 1-2 mins on a medium heat until crisp.

Step 4

To assemble the salad, drain the edamame, then tip onto the rice along with the pomegranate seeds and salmon. Fan out the avocado slices on top and sprinkle over the sesame seeds. Drizzle over the dressing and top with slices of sushi ginger, if you like.
