    Add the salmon cubes to the bowl with the miso glaze and gently toss to coat. Let marinate for at least 10 minutes.

    While the salmon is marinating, cut the nori sheets into thin strips or small squares.

    ~3 min
  5. 5

    Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the marinated salmon cubes in a single layer, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan. Sear for 2-3 minutes per side, until the salmon is cooked through and has a nice caramelized glaze.

    Remove the salmon from the pan and arrange on a serving plate. Scatter the nori strips around the salmon.

Tips

  • For extra crispy nori, briefly toast the nori strips in a dry pan over low heat before serving.
  • You can adjust the sweetness and saltiness of the glaze by increasing or decreasing the amount of mirin and soy sauce.
