Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9
  • Line a baking tray with parchment paper
  • Pull out a large saucepan, a large bowl, a small bowl, a peeler & a sieve

Roast the salmon

  • Place the salmon, skin-side down, onto the lined baking tray, drizzle with 1/2 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper
  • Roast for 10 mins

Pickle the carrot & make the dressing

  • Meanwhile, peel the carrot into ribbons, then place into the large bowl with the juice from the lime and a pinch of salt. Toss to coat, then set aside to pickle
  • In the small bowl, combine the sesame oil, tamari, ginger & garlic paste and honey. Set aside

Prep & cook the veg

  • Halve the mangetout lengthways. Trim the broccoli and cut into small florets. Thinly slice the peppers
  • After 10 mins, add the broccoli and pepper to the salmon tray, drizzle with 1/2 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for another 10-12 mins, until the fish is cooked through and the veg is softened
  • Meanwhile, thinly slice the nori and spring onions

Cook the noodles

  • Bring the large saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Once boiling, add the noodles, gently separate with a fork and boil for 6-7 mins, until cooked. Drain, then rinse under cold water

Plate up

  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
  • When ready, add the broccoli, pepper, spring onion, mangetout and noodles to the carrot bowl. Pour over the dressing and toss to combine, then serve into bowls. Top with the salmon and sprinkle over the nori
