    For the salmon, season the skin side and pat the black sesame seeds onto the skin to create a crust. Pan fry skin side/crust side down in a hot non-stick pan for 2 minutes until golden brown. Once crispy, turn the salmon over and pan fry for a further 30 seconds. Remove from pan. Serve with the other delicious buddha bowl fillings in Le Creuset 10cm Mini Casseroles.

    For the kimchi fried rice, heat oil in a Le Creuset 28cm Signature Round Casserole and add the cooked rice to warm through and fry gently, followed by folding through the kimchi to coat all of the grains with flavour. Remove from the heat. Top with the mung beans, purple sprouts and sesame seeds.
