β’ In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, water, grated ginger, and olive oil. Bring to a boil.
β’ Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork and season with salt to taste.
3. Roast the Sesame Mushrooms:
β’ Preheat the oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C).
β’ Toss the sliced mushrooms with sesame oil, soy sauce, sesame seeds, salt, and pepper. Spread them out in a single layer on a baking sheet.

5. Cook the Salmon:
β’ Season the salmon fillets with salt and pepper.
β’ Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
