Sesame Seed Encrusted Wasabi Salmon... Quick and somewhat impressive

Adam and I loved this last night! It looked great, and tasted great! - I will post a pic soon - it is great if you are having company and want something you can make REALLY quick plus its unique.

What you need:
  • Salmon - I bought a 1lb bag of salmon and it was cut in four small pieces which were great for cooking with.
  • wasabi powder
  • 2 tablespoons half and half
  • water
  • sesame seeds
  • cooking oil
  • soy sauce
Cook it!

Prepare wasabi sauce:
  • Ok for every 1 tsp of wasabi powder you need to add 1 tsp of water...this is just a drizzle over the top of your salmon so you can make as little or as much as you want but remember its HOT I used about 6...could have used less bc Adam yelped a couple times...oh well LOL. Blend it with spoon/fork
  • Set it aside for 10 minutes to thicken
  • After 10 min -add the 2 tablespoons of half and half and stir
  • Thaw salmon if it is frozen and pat dry with a paper towel
  • Coat each side in sesame seeds...be generous some fall off while transferring and cooking.
  • Coat frying pan with oil and place salmon in pan...cook until it is flaky
  • After Salmon is cooked - put it on the plate and drizzle with wasabi sauce.
  • Have some soy sauce available for dipping on the side.
  • ENJOY!
I served this with homemade fried rice...recipe on this blog!
