sesame oil

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: vegetable oil

Olive oil is a healthier fat option.

salmon fillets

🥗Healthier: trout

💰Cheaper: cod

Trout is a healthier option, while cod is more budget-friendly.

Combine mirin, tamari or soy sauce, brown sugar, and miso paste in a bowl to create the marinade.

Let the salmon marinate for 5 minutes on each side.

Preheat a pan and add a little canola oil.

Place the salmon in the pan skin-side down.

Cook the salmon for about 4 minutes per side or until it starts to flake apart.

While the salmon is cooking, prepare the kale by removing the leaves from the stems using a pinching method.

Toss the kale with olive oil and sprinkle with salt on a baking sheet.

Bake the kale in the oven for about 12 minutes until crispy.

Check the kale chips to ensure they are crunchy and not stuck to the pan.
