3. Quick glazed salmon
You will need:
2 cups basmati rice
Three fresh salmon fillets
¼ cup soy sauce
4 tbsp brown sugar
1-2 lime wedges
Chopped coriander leaves to serve
Salt, to taste
How to prepare:
Cut the salmon into small pieces.
In a bowl, whisk soy sauce and brown sugar until the latter dissolves.
Add the salmon chunks to the sauce and marinate the pieces for some time.
Cover the raw rice with three cups of water in a saucepan and let it cook for 12-15 minutes.
Simultaneously, line a baking tray with parchment paper. Place the salmon chunks in the tray without the marinade. Bake for six minutes or until the salmon looks cooked.
In another pan, add the reserved marinade and reduce it by cooking it on a low flame.
Place the rice in a bowl, top it with the cooked salmon, and pour the reduced sauce/marinade.
Garnish it with coriander leaves and serve this delicious salmon recipe with lemon wedges for a perfect lunch.
