It’s been a busy week so I do apologise for lack of postage recently. Cooking has been minimal (sad face) but I did knock this up and it’s a beaut. Aside from the hour or so of marinating, this recipe will take all of 10 minutes to put together. Perfect for midweek munching.
Serves 2
2 salmon fillets
1 thumb of ginger, grated
1 red chilli, roughly chopped
A handful of coriander, chopped
2 tbsp soy sauce
A few drops of sesame oil
Juice of half a lime
– Sling together the ginger, chilli, coriander, soy, sesame oil and lime juice and slip the salmon in like an otter from a riverbank. Marinate for an hour.
– Brush off the marinade before frying the salmon in a hot pan for a couple of minutes on each side. We ate ours with noodles and pak choi and it was banging. Oh, and the marinade of course.

James … Looks delicious and, of course, simple is better. I kept thinking there were capers in the picture – although, perhaps not a great idea with that lovely soy sauce base.
Thanks for this!

Thanks! No capers, just the marinade. You’re right, capers wouldn’t work. J
Mmm, this ticks all the right boxes James. Love salmon slathered in ginger, soy, chilli, lime, coriander…great recipe 🙂
I do a similar midweek supper dish baked in foil will, prep it in the morning and it’s ready for the evening.
‘like an otter from a riverbank’ – lovely image!
Hello James, Thank you for this lovely recipe, I just made it tonight, I added fresh rosé garlic, mmmmm. I used coriander seeds, didn’t have any fresh, I crushed them, not too many. It was very nice, served with brown rice with a tad of sesame oil mixed in with it too and a kind of home made mushy peas, made with fresh or frozen peas, onion, sunflower seeds, gravy to healthy fry the onions in, then add the other stuff, and a little garlic, salt and pepper, cook a little while then liquidise, lovely and green for with this delicious fish dish.
