Method

  1. Step 1

    Cook the rice in a large saucepan of boiling water following packet directions. Rinse under cold water. Drain well. Transfer to a large bowl.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, place the spinach in a colander over a large heatproof bowl. Pour over enough boiling water to just wilt the spinach. Rinse under cold water. Squeeze out excess liquid. Finely chop.

  3. Step 3

    To make the miso dressing, whisk the miso paste, oil, vinegar and 1 tbs hot water in a small bowl.

  4. Step 4

    Add the spinach, edamame, apple, cucumber, half the spring onion and half the sesame seeds to the rice in the bowl. Drizzle with half the dressing and toss to combine. Sprinkle with the remaining spring onion and sesame seeds. Serve with the remaining dressing.

    Dial it up:For even more flavour and a crisp texture, toss some thinly sliced celery and chopped walnuts through the salad.
