Yin & Yang Salmon

Another one of Mag's creations - if you don't experment, u don't know!

Ingredients (serves 2)
2 Salmon Portions (perferably with the skin on one side)
1/4 Nori sheet, cut into 2 long strips
1 tsp wasabi
2 tbsps mayonnaise
1 tsp soya sauce
Generous Bed of greens - spinach, rocket, salad leaves
8 cherry tomatoes
8 Asparagus
1/2 lemon, juiced
Salt and Pepper
Cooked Rice, optional
Instant Miso Soup, optional

Method
1. Rub salt and pepper on salmon portion. Wrap 1 nori strip around the each portion. Drizzle olive oil to coat fish, this will also help nori strip stick to fish and skin of fish to crisp.
2. In a small bowl, add wasabi, mayonnaise and soya sauce. Set aside.
3. In a non-stick pan, make sure it is hot and do not put olive oil in pan (it will smoke the entire house!). Place each oiled fish portions on the pan. Turn flame down to medium and let fish cook and crisp up.
4. While, fish is cooking, arrange bed of greens and tomatoes on each serving plates. When fish is ready, place fish on top of salad greens. Place a generous dollop of wasabi mayonnaise on top of fish.
5. While non-stick pan is still hot, cook the asparagus with a tsp olive oil for 30 seconds. Remove it and place it on top of the fish. Pour lemon juice over the asparagus. Serve hot.
6. You may also serve dish with steaming hot rice and a bowl of instant miso soup. Absolutely divine!
