Toasted Sesame Ginger Salmon
Toasted Sesame Ginger Salmon
Broiling the fish is my favorite way to prepare it since it develops a somewhat crunchy crust, but you can make this however you choose and have dinner on the table within hour or less.

Ingredients
750 g raw salmon
¼ cup rice bran oil
2 tbsp toasted sesame oil
2 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tbsp brown sugar
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 garlic cloves, grated
1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
1-2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds
4 spring onions, sliced
SESAME GINGER HONEY GLAZE:--
¼ cup bush honey
1 tsp toasted sesame oil
1 tsp soy sauce
½ tsp freshly grated ginger
½ tsp toasted sesame seeds
SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste
Directions
Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and place a wire rack over top. Spray the rack with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl or baking dish, combine rice bran oil, sesame oil, soy sauce, garlic, ginger, vinegar, sugar and whisk well until combined. Add salmon to the dish or place everything in a ziplock bag, then refrigerate and marinate for 30 minutes.
Preheat the broiler in your oven. (Or preheat your grill, etc if you prefer to use something else.)
Remove salmon with kitchen tongs and place directly on the wire rack. Sprinkle with a little bit of SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste, then place directly under the broiler. Cook for 10-12 minutes, depending on the salmon’s thickness (our’s was just about 25 mm thick), until opaque and easily flakable with a fork. Flip the salmon halfway through cooking.
Remove and serve immediately, with a sprinkling of toasted sesame seeds, spring onions and the glaze below.
SESAME GINGER HONEY GLAZE: Combine all ingredients in a bowl and whisk until smooth. Pour over salmon.
