Ingredients
SALMON
- 250g skinless salmon fillet
TERIYAKI SAUCE
- 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1½ teaspoons finely grated ginger
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- ¼ teaspoon sesame oil
- ½ teaspoon mustard (e.g. Dijon, wholegrain)
- ½ teaspoon runny honey
- ¼ teaspoon rice wine vinegar
BROCCOLI-PEA SMASH
- ½ cup water
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- ½ head broccoli
- 2/3 cup frozen peas
- Juice of 1/4 lemon
PICKLED GINGER CABBAGE
- 1/3 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- ¼ cabbage, thinly sliced until you have about 2 cups worth
- ½ stalk celery, thinly sliced on an angle
- 1-1½ teaspoons pickled ginger
TO SERVE
- ½ lemon
Steps
-
oven to high grill. Line an oven tray (with a lip) with baking paper (see tip).
-
Pat salmon dry with paper towels, remove any remaining pin bones and cut lengthways into two pieces. Place on prepared tray. In a small bowl, combine all teriyaki sauce ingredients. Set both aside.
-
For the broccoli-pea smash, bring water and salt to the boil in a small pot (with a lid) on medium-high heat. Cut broccoli into small florets then roughly dice into bite-size pieces. Dice stalk 1cm. Add broccoli to pot and cook, covered, for about 4 minutes.
-
Add peas to pot with broccoli, stir, cover and cook for a further 3 minutes, until soft. If veggies stick, add a splash of water. Remove from heat and leave to steam for 2 minutes. Drain any excess liquid (if needed) and use a potato masher to roughly smash. Stir through lemon juice and season to taste. Cover to keep warm.
-
While broccoli cooks, prepare pickled ginger cabbage. Bring water and salt to a simmer in a medium pot on medium heat. Cook cabbage and celery, stirring regularly for 5-6 minutes, until softened. Stir through pickled ginger and season to taste with salt, if needed.
-
While cabbage cooks, drizzle teriyaki sauce evenly over salmon and grill (on upper middle-upper oven rack) for 6–8 minutes for medium-rare (depending on thickness), or until cooked to your liking. Take care to ensure glaze does not burn. Cut remaining half lemon into wedges.
-
divide teriyaki salmon and broccoli-pea smash between plates with pickled ginger cabbage on the side. Squeeze over a wedge of lemon just before serving.
