Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9. Peel and quarter the shallot. Add the sweet potato chunks and shallot to a large (lined) baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 20-30 mins. Turn halfway through. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
Boil 280ml water (per 2P) and stock in a medium pot with a tight-fitting lid. Add the quinoa, reduce the heat to medium-high, cover and cook for 4-5 mins.
Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, covered, a further 7-8 mins. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
Meanwhile, lay the salmon fillets, skin-side down, onto another lined baking tray. Season with salt and pepper.
Pop the salmon onto the top shelf of your oven until cooked through, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish. It's cooked when opaque in the middle.
While everything's in the oven, trim the cucumber, then pop onto a board and use a rolling pin to gently smack it a few times until split. Cut into roughly 2cm chunks.
In a medium bowl, combine the sriracha, apple cider vinegar and 1 tsp sugar (per 2P). Season with salt and pepper.
Add the cucumber into the dressing and mix together. Set aside.
A few mins before everything's ready, pop a small pot on medium heat.
Add the gochujang paste, honey and 2 tbsp butter (per 2P). TIP: If your honey has hardened, put the sachet in a bowl of hot water for 1 min to loosen.
Stir vigorously until the butter has melted and the sauce is piping hot, 1-2 mins. Remove from the heat.
Fluff up the quinoa and share between your serving bowls.
Top the quinoa with the salmon, roasted veggies and smacked cucumber in separate sections. Spoon the gochujang butter sauce over the fish (reheat first if needed) and drizzle over any remaining dressing over the cucumber.
Drizzle over the mayo and sprinkle with the sesame seeds to finish.
