Sticky salmon with mint rice
4 persons
4 salmon fillets
3 tbsp each of soy sauce, clear honey and rice wine vinegar
7 oz (200g) long grain rice
7 oz (200 g) frozen peas
1 small cucumber, diced
Small bunch of fresh mint, leaves picked
1 lime in wedges
Mix soy sauce, honey and rice wine vinegar in a bowl. Add the salmon and coat with the marinade.
Leave to marinade for 20 min to an hour. Cook the rice according to the pack instructions. I normally use chicken or vegetable stock instead of water. It gives the rice more flavor. Meanwhile, fry the salmon fillets in a frying pan on medium heat until lightly pink inside and flakes easily. When the rice is cooked, heat a splash of oil in another frying pan and fry the rice with the peas and cucumber for a couple of minutes until the peas are warm. Stir through the mint leaves and serve with the salmon fillets. Top with a lime wedge.
