Soy Soy Summer Salmon
Ingredients
Serves 2
2 Salmon Fillets 6-8oz/200g
Marinade
3 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp light soy sauce
1 Tbsp rice wine vinegar
1 Tbsp sesame oil
Juice of half a lemon
1 Inch of ginger peeled and diced
Noodles
200g Dried egg noodles
20 ml Sesame oil
20ml Light soy sauce
1 Small red chilli (sliced)
100g Sugar snap peas (roughly chopped)
100g Baby corn (roughly chopped)
Garnish
1 Tbsp sesame seeds
2 Sprigs coriander
2 Quarters of lime
Method
- Start by making the marinade. Mix all of the
ingredients together in a container and place the salmon
in the marinade. Cover and put into the fridge for a
minimum of half an hour (the longer it is left the
better the flavour will be).
- Heat up a frying pan without oil and dry fry the
sesame seeds for approximately 1–2 minutes then set
aside for later.
- Plunge the noodles into boiling water for 1 minute
then remove from the heat and cover. Set aside and leave
for a further 2 minutes (or follow the packet
instructions).
- Drain the noodles whilst they are still hot, place
into a bowl and dress with sesame oil and soy sauce. Mix
through the sliced red chillies, sugar snap peas and
baby corn.
- Heat up a griddle pan with a light brushing of olive
oil and place the salmon in the pan skin side down. Cook
for 2-3 minutes (or until you can see the salmon
starting to change to a very pale pink colour at the
side) then turn over. Turn the heat down by half, cover
the pan and leave for a further 3-4 minutes to cook
through.
- Whilst the salmon is cooking split the noodles into
2 bowls/plates (whichever you prefer), place the fillet
of salmon on top of each bed of noodles skin side up.
Sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds and place the
coriander and lime wedge on top and serve. Enjoy!
