Method

  1. Mix the lime juice, ginger, garlic, soy and vinegar with some black pepper. Pour half over the salmon fillets and leave to marinate for 10 mins.
  2. Heat the grill to High. Lay the salmon on a non-stick baking tray and grill for 5-6 mins each side or until cooked through. Meanwhile, heat a wok with the remaining marinade and the stock, add the baby corn and broccoli, stir-fry for about 5 mins, then add the pak choi and cook for 2 mins more.
  3. Serve the salmon on top of the vegetables with any sauce from the pan and sprinkle with the spring onions.

    This sounds yummy! The marinade would work well on chicken too. Will try it soon.

    Made this for the family, the salmon was delicious. I like the way no oil was used, but stock instead. I served with rice and reduced the amount of veg.

    This was a tasty and unusual way to stir fry. I baked the salmon in a hot oven for 20 minutes instead of grilling.

    The salmon was delicious. I found the vegtables a little vinegary and will exclude this next time, just using the lime juice for the acidity

    Nice enough, but the cooking times are a bit out - the pak choi takes longer to cook than states and it then meant that the other veggies were overcooked.

    I also found the vegetables very vinegary - I used white wine vinegar, not sure if that was why, but like the salmon, so will do that again - maybe on rice or with plain stir fried veg.

    Yes, I too found the vegetables unpalatable with the rice vinegar (hubby cooked it and swears he only used ONE tbsp, not two as suggested in the recipe!!) ... but like everyone else, found the salmon to be exceptionally tasty and beautifully cooked.

    Very tasty dish. I cook my salmon in the oven for about 20 minutes depending on size. If you replace the rice vinegar with dry sherry it is much nicer and reduces the acidity. Some times I add a few noodles to the stir fry.

    Really wanted to try this but didn't have the veg the recipe mentioned, so I substituted sliced green beans, peas, my first home-grown courgette, some old mushrooms - delicious! Oh, and I cooked the salmon in a Remoska since both my grill and oven are out of action.

    I followed some of the above advice and used sherry (great advice - thx) instead of vinegar and oven cooked the fish (wrapped in greaseproof paper) for 20 mins. The fish was excellent. The stirfry-in stock bit was good too, but thought some of the flavours were lost through, in essense, part boiling the veg. Next time, I'll cook as per a normal stirfry and add the marinade, without the stock, for the last few minutes. Note, no need to worry about veg selection - any of the usual stir fry veg will work!
