  • Servings: 2
  • 2 atlantic salmon fillets
  • 50 g rocket
  • 100 g bean sprouts
  • 1/2 red onion, finely sliced
  • 2 spring onions, finely sliced
  • 50 g sugar snap peas
  • sesame seeds
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric

  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 1 teaspoon coarse grain mustard
  • 1/2 lime, juice of
  • 1 shallot, finely chopped
  • 3 tablespoons lime-infused oil (if you don't have lime infused oil, olive oil with lime zest works well)

  • 1/2 garlic clove, crushed
  • 1/2 tablespoon honey
  • 1/2 lime, juice of

Recipe

  • 1 combine all marinade ingredients in a bowl and stir well.
  • 2 place salmon fillets in a shallow dish and cover with marinade.
  • 3 rub the marinade gently on to the salmon and allow to rest while preparing the salad (5-10 minutes is more than enough time for the flavours to infuse).
  • 4 combine salad ingredients (except sesame seeds) in a large bowl and then place on to the serving plates.
  • 5 combine all ingredients for the dressing. sesame oil can be quite powerful so if the taste is too strong, counter with more honey and lime juice.
  • 6 drizzle dressing onto the salad and then sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  • 7 place salmon fillets top-side down in a hot non-stick pan. reduce to a medium heat and cook each side for 3-4 minutes depending on the thickness, turning only once. salmon is best served rare to medium-rare.
  • 8 place atlantic salmon with side salad and serve.
