For cooking one-person meal, the canned fish is very handy to have in the pantry. I try to stock canned salmon, tuna, sardine and mackerel when they are on special. This ‘Canned Salmon Miso Don’ can be cooked, of course, with fresh salmon fillet but fish are all very pricy in Australia. A small canned salmon is just good enough for this dish. AND the key ingredient for this dish is the butter. Why don’t you try and find out how good it is with miso.
