Recipe: Wasabi Potatoes with Salmon
The wasabi adds a kick to instant potatoes, while the salmon is a perfect protein source.
Wasabi Potatoes with Salmon (Justin Bailie)
1 1/2 cups instant potato flakes
1 1/2 cups water
1 6-ounce salmon pouch
2 teaspoons wasabi powder (check the Asian section of your grocery store)
At Home
Pack potato flakes and wasabi powder in a zip-top bag
In Camp
Bring water to a simmer. Add the potato-wasabi mix and stir until smooth. Remove from heat, add salmon, and serve. Tip: Skip the salt–it brings out the wasabi's bitterness and dampens its spice.
