• Divide the salmon evenly into 8-12 portions. Try and slice them in 1 x 1 x 4 pieces (about the size and shape of a candy bar). If you can't make them all the same size you can mix and match smaller pieces to make a portion.

• Place your spring roll wrapper on an angle so that it is a diamond. Close to the bottom corner, place a portion of salmon, 1/2 tablespoon of garlic and ginger each and some cilantro.

• Smear a small amount of the flour paste at the top right corner and seal the roll shut.
• When you are close to serving the spring rolls, submerge them in hot oil about 4 at a time and cook until golden brown, or about 3-4 minutes.

GOLDEN FRIED RICE WITH SALMON AND FURIKAKE

Steps:

• Separate egg yolks from whites, placing yolks in a medium bowl and whites in a small bowl. Add rice to bowl with yolks and mix to break up any clumps and coat each grain with yolks (take your time with this as any clumps will cook together); set aside. Stir 2 Tbsp. oil into egg whites and season lightly with salt.
• Heat a dry large nonstick skillet over high. Add egg white mixture and cook, pushing around constantly with chopsticks or a heatproof rubber spatula, until gently set, about 30 seconds. Transfer to a plate. Wipe out skillet if needed.

• Heat 2 Tbsp. oil in skillet over medium-high. Cook ginger, stirring, until very fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add onion and season with a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until onion is translucent, about 1 minute (remove from heat if onion starts to go past golden brown). Add reserved rice mixture, sprinkle with sugar, and season with salt. Toss to combine, then cook, undisturbed, until rice is beginning to warm and crisp underneath, about 1 minute. Push some of the rice to the side to clear a few inches in skillet. Drizzle a bit of oil into the clearing. Add scallion white and pale green parts and garlic and cook, stirring, until just softened and fragrant, about 45 seconds. Toss into rice mixture and cook, tossing occasionally, until warmed through and rice is crisp and chewy, about 3 minutes. Return cooked egg whites to pan and cook, tossing and breaking up with spatula until distributed. Return salmon to pan and toss once to combine.
