Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Spread the miso marinade evenly over the salmon fillets.

Place the salmon in the oven and bake for 15 minutes.

While the salmon is cooking, prepare the Japanese potato salad by salting cucumber and carrot to draw out moisture.

Cook potatoes until warm and mash them in a bowl.

Add Japanese mayonnaise, white vinegar, hot mustard, and spring onion to the mashed potatoes.

Squeeze excess moisture from the salted vegetables and mix them into the potato salad.

Check the salmon; it should be juicy and flaky when done.

Serve the miso glazed salmon with the potato salad.
