Sake no Tataki is a vibrant and refreshing Japanese dish featuring lightly seared salmon, served cold with a tangy ponzu sauce and crisp vegetables. This dish combines rich flavors and healthy ingredients, making it both a delightful and nutritious meal.

Ingredients

• salmon fillet - 200 grams
• olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon
• ponzu sauce - 3 tablespoons
• green onion - 2 stalks, chopped
• fresh ginger - 1 teaspoon, grated
• sesame seeds - 1 tablespoon, toasted
• mixed salad greens - 100 grams
• radish - 1, thinly sliced

Steps

1. Start by patting the salmon fillet dry with paper towels and season it with salt and black pepper on both sides.
2. In a skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, sear the salmon for about 1-2 minutes on each side until it has a golden crust but remains rare in the center.
3. Remove the salmon from the skillet and let it rest for a few minutes. Then, place it in the refrigerator to cool down.
4. Once cooled, slice the salmon into thin, bite-sized pieces.
5. In a bowl, mix the ponzu sauce with grated ginger and chopped green onion.
6. To serve, arrange the mixed salad greens and radish slices on a plate, top with the sliced salmon, and drizzle the ponzu sauce mixture over the top.
7. Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds for garnish.
