One dish meal: Miso Brown rice with Grilled Salmon

If you ask me what kind of food that I like to cook, I must say one dish meal ^^.

With less thing to wash, and no time to waste, it's my kind of food. And this menu is easier than ever because a rice cooker can do the rest of the job. If you never ate Jasmine brown rice before it's a dish that I really want you to try. Jasmine brown rice is nutty with lovely fragrance, the only tricky thing about cooking it is, it needs more water (and cooking time) to cook. Not only that it's delicious, Jasmine brown rice contains more fibre, minerals, and essential oils than the white rice, too. And its nutty flavour goes very well with oily fish like salmon. The easiest way to cook brown rice is using rice cooker, well you can use heavy pan to cook it but as it needs more cooking time (because it uses more water), it's a bit boring for me, haha. 
For serving, you can crush the salmon into flakes and mix it with rice, or serving it whole piece, it's delicious in both ways.
