    Nice, healthy meal.

    Agree with some of the other comments. Next time I'll double the dressing. My fish also required about 6 mins more cooking time, but I did use snapper, not salmon.

    Yum! We are big salmon eaters and this recipe was delicious, thank you. Next time I will double the dressing recipe as I wanted more through my rice. I cooked for 20 mins total, adding veggies at 15 mins, the salmon was well cooked so I will drop it back to 16 mins next time.

    Absolutely delicious and very easy. I left the fish on the bench to warm up a little from the fridge. Once cooked I left it sitting in the varoma on top of the bowl for a few minutes as we weren't quite ready to eat. 16 minutes was perfect for us as we prefer our salmon pink on the inside.

    Easy and tasty! 

    Cooked rice for about 9 mins before adding veg and salmon. I will cook salmon for about 14 mins next time and I prefer it rare. Thanks for sharing.
