Miso Salmon & Simple Salad

I absolutely LOVE creating interesting, tasty meals that don't cost a fortune and are PACKED with flavour.

And I've been at it again!

This week I've put together a DELICIOUS Miso Salmon and served it along with a SIMPLE garden salad and Asian dressing. The recipe below serves 6.

The Japanese style marinade includes pureed red onion which once cooked sweetens the marinade without adding sugar.

It's SO good!

Cooked on the BBQ gives it some extra flavour but you can also do this on the stove top in a very hot pan. I also oven baked some Sweet Potato Match Sticks as a garnish which, although it's a bit untraditional, complemented the dish nicely.

You can use this recipe: http://minimalistbaker.com/crispy-baked-garlic-matchstick-fries/ (just swap the potato for sweet potato).

Let's Eat!

Ingredients:

750g Atlantic or Tasmanian Salmon

1/4 Red Onion

2 tbs Miso

Squeeze half a Lime

2 Cloves Garlic

1 tbs Pickled Ginger

1 tbs Olive Oil

1 tsp Sesame Oil

1 tbs Soy Sauce

1/2 Cup Water

Pepper & Salt

Slice the salmon into 6 equal pieces and place into an airtight container.

Add all other ingredients to a food processor and puree to a paste. Use this paste to marinate the salmon for minimum of 2 hours.

We cooked our salmon on the BBQ but you can do on the stove top. Sear both sides and cook to taste. We prefer ours medium rare.

Serve with a salad of:

Iceberg Lettuce

Tomato

Cucumber

Red Onion

Shallot

Salad Dressing:

1 tbs Rice Wine Vinegar

1 tsp Sesame Oil

1 tsp Honey

Squeeze Half Lime

Pepper & Salt

Then, there's only ONE thing left to do...

EAT!

Catch you next time for another delicious, healthy meal!
