Here are a couple of marinades that I like to cook when we (I) want a change.
Asian Salmon Fillets
serves 4
• 4 salmon filletsfor the marinade
• 2 garlic cloves (crushed)
• 1 tablespoon ginger (peeled and grated)
• 1 chilli (deseeded and finely diced) - optional
• 4 tablespoon soy sauce
• 3 tablespoons honey
• 1 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon coriander leaves (finely chopped)
Put all of the marinade ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to simmer for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to cool. Place the salmon in a large bowl and pour over the marinade. Leave to marinate for at least 1 hour or up to overnight. Grill, oven bake or barbecue.
While the salmon is cooking, pour the marinade into a clean saucepan and bring back to the boil on the stove top. Boil for 1 to 2 minutes to reduce and thicken the sauce. Continue to stir. Served the cooked salmon drizzled with the sauce.
