- Change the oven function to Combi Grill level 3 + 30% moisture and cook the salmon and kumara for a further 6 minutes, or until fish is just cooked.
- Slice kumara rounds into thick slices.
Salad

To serve

Hints and tips
- Mint, Thai basil or basil can be used if shiso leaves are unavailable.
- Instead of serving as salmon fillets, you can also flake the salmon into the salad.
- Extend or decrease the cooking time of the salmon, depending on the preferred degree of doneness.
- Gochujang is a Korean chilli paste. It can be found in Asian grocers and some supermarkets.
- Please note our recipes are developed using tablespoons that hold 20 ml (4 teaspoons).
- This recipe has been developed in our 45 cm combi steam oven. If you’re cooking in our 60 cm combi steam oven, follow steps 1-6 to roast the salmon and kumara, then move the universal tray to shelf position 4 when changing the function to Combi Grill (step 7). This will enable caramelisation of the salmon.
