Method

Combine maple syrup, half the mustard and half the tamari sauce in a wide shallow bowl. Add salmon and turn to coat. Set aside to marinate for 15 minutes.
Preheat the oven grill to high. Place salmon on a lightly greased oven tray and scatter with half the sesame seeds. Place asparagus, broccolini, ½ tbs oil and remaining sesame seeds in a bowl, season and toss to coat.
Place on tray around salmon and grill for 6–8 minutes on highest shelf, turning vegetables once, until fish is lightly glazed and medium rare and vegetables are just tender. Set aside to rest for 5 minutes, then roughly flake salmon.
To make a dressing, shake remaining mustard, tamari and oil with the lemon juice in a small screw-top jar and season.
Place the coriander, mint, salad leaves, broccolini, asparagus and herbs on a serving platter, top with salmon and drizzle with dressing. Serve with sauerkraut (if using).
