Ingredients for the salmon
2 skinless salmon fillets
1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
1 tbsp honey
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tbsp mirin
2 tbsp soy sauce
2 tsp finely grated ginger
For the Bak choi
1 cup bak choi
1 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp Japanese soy sauce
3 tbsp lime juice fresh
1 tbsp honey
2 cloves garlic grated
1 tbsp chili finely chopped olive oil
Directions
Heat oven to 250F and put 2 skinless salmon filets in a shallow baking dish.
Mix 1 tbsp sweet chili sauce, 1 tbsp honey, 1 tsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp mirin or dry sherry, 2 tbsp soy sauce and 2 tsp finely grated ginger in a small bowl and pour over the salmon so the filets are completely covered. Bake for 10 mins.
Meanwhile, cook the bak choi. Cut a slice across the base of 2 large bak choi so the leaves separate.
Heat 2 tsp vegetable oil and 2 tsp sesame oil in a wok, add 3 grated garlic cloves and stir-fry briefly to soften.
Add the bak choi and fry until the leaves start to wilt. You’re aiming for the stems to be tender but still have a bit of a bite.
Serve the bak choi on a plate, top with the salmon and spoon over the juices. Scatter with 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds and serve. Enjoy!
