This recipe shared by home cook Stephanie Tai uses brown rice in a very creative way, and the taste caught us by surprise. Imagine crunchy brown rice crust that tastes nutty and smells just like popcorn!

Home Cook Stephanie shared that she wanted to cook a dish that's healthy, full of texture and delicious for her family. Therefore, she created this special dish using brown rice and salmon.

"Instead of the usual cooking of rice, I used brown rice to create a crusty texture on salmon. It's definitely something different but it taste so yummy!" - Stephanie Tai

We incorporated Paddy King's Thai brown rice for this recipe as it is of the finest grade, high in nutritional value and gives off an aromatic fragrance when cooked. Don't be surprised when the brown rice starts popping as you roast it. Toss and stir the rice constantly to prevent it from getting burnt.

By coating the salmon with the brown rice, it holds in the moisture keeping the salmon juicy and tender. This combination goes great with the buttery mandarin orange sauce. Need we say more? Try her recipe.
