- Ingredients
- 250 grams Long grain rice

- 600 grams Salmon (ready to cook, skinless)
- 2 Tbsps lemon juice (for drizzling)

Place rice into 500 ml (approximately 2 cups) of salted boiling water. Rinse salmon, pat dry, divide into 4 equal portions and sprinkle with lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and grill on a medium hot grill until golden brown on both sides. Brush with butter occasionally.
Peel lower thirds of asparagus, trim woody ends and blanch in boiling salted water for 7 minutes. Rinse scallions and blanch in boiling salted water for 2 minutes. Cut off asparagus tips and cut stalks into thin slices. Heat butter in a pan and saute scallions and asparagus briefly. Add rice and parsley and toss well, season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with lemon juice and arrange on plates. Top with salmon, sprinkle with crushed pink peppercorns and garnish with lemon wedges. Serve.
