What you'll need

Enough for however many you're feeding, I cook for 2.

Main ingredients

Salmon
Root ginger
Lime
Corriander (optional)

Fresh/ frozen

Garlic

Store cupboard

Soy sauce
Honey
Olive oil
Mirin (optional)
Sesame seeds (optional)

What to do

1. In a bowl, grate the zest of a lime, 1 or 2 cloves of garlic, a thumb sized piece of ginger. Add 2-3 tbsp soy sauce, a tsp honey, the juice of half the lime (or a tsp or 2 of mirin if you prefer). Give everything a good mix. Pop the salmon fillets in with the sauce and make sure it's well coated with the sauce. Allow to marinate for 10-15 mins.

2. Cook the salmon to your liking. You could use the grill, oven or as I did, pan fry.

3. Serve up with your choice of side dish. I cooked some broccoli and tossed it in a little sesame oil and garnished with freshly chopped coriander leaves.

notes & tips

40-45 degrees this is the temperature at which salmon is cooked medium. Insert a food thermometer into the thickest part. If it's between 40-45 degrees, it can come off the heat and left to rest.
