Method

  1. Heat grill to high. Place the fish in a shallow baking dish, then grill for 4-5 mins until cooked through, but still a little pink in the centre. Cover and set aside.
  2. Heat a wok, add the oil, then stir-fry the ginger, chilli and spring onions for 2-3 mins. Stir in the soy, sugar and a splash of water, then take off the heat. Throw in the coriander and serve immediately with the salmon. Delicious with rice or noodles.

Make it with chicken

SPICY CHICKEN WRAPS Use 4 chicken breasts instead of the salmon. Slice the chicken into strips, then stir-fry with 2 tbsp oil over a high heat for 5 mins. Add the ginger, chilli, spring onions and soy as above. Toss in the coriander, then roll up in warmed tortilla wraps.

Tip

For perfect salmon, always undercook it slightly, then cover and leave to stand for a few mins. As it stands it will carry on cooking gently, resulting in velvety, just-cooked fish.

This Grilled Thai salmon is something we would cook for a quick lunch. The soy and sugar were a great combination and went well with the noodles we served it with.

    I didn't hav efresh ginger or chillis but used 1/2 tsp of ground ginger and 1/2 large dried chilli. I used a small leek instead of the spring onions because i didn't have any. Still tasted very nice.
