Ingredients
Salmon
250 g (Cut into 1.5-inch squares, skin removed if desired)
Salt and Pepper
to taste (For seasoning)
Flour
as needed (For dredging)
White Wine
1.5 tablespoons (For deglazing)
Miso Paste
2 teaspoons (For sauce)
Soy Milk
100 ml (For sauce)
Instructions
1
If desired, remove the skin from the salmon and cut it into 1.5-inch squares. Season the pieces lightly with salt and pepper.
2
In a mixing bowl, combine the soy milk and miso paste. Whisk vigorously until well blended and smooth.
3
Dredge the salmon pieces in flour, shaking off any excess. Heat a splash of oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat.
4
Place the salmon in the pan, skin side down first, and cook until golden brown on one side, then carefully flip to cook the other side until golden and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side.
5
Pour the white wine into the pan, cover it with a lid, and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes or until the salmon is cooked to your liking. Once done, transfer the salmon to a warm plate and cover to keep warm while you prepare the sauce.
6
In the same pan, add the soy milk and miso mixture, stirring continuously over medium heat. Allow it to heat gently until it thickens slightly, ensuring it does not boil, which may make it too salty. Taste and adjust the seasoning with more soy milk if necessary.
7
To serve, arrange the salmon and any desired steamed vegetables on a plate. Generously drizzle the creamy miso sauce over the salmon. If reheating, do so gently to maintain the sauce's consistency. Enjoy your meal!
