CRISPY ASIAN SALMON WITH STIR-FRIED NOODLES, PAK CHOI & SUGAR SNAP PEAS

Steps:

• Make the marinade by mixing together all the ingredients. Place the salmon fillets in a small bowl and spoon over the marinade, turning the fish so that it's nicely coated. Cover with cling film and leave to sit for 10 mins (or longer if you have time).
• Meanwhile, cook the noodles following pack instructions, then drain and sit them in a bowl of cold water.
• Heat a non-stick frying pan. Add the salmon fillets, skin-side down, and leave for 3 mins. When the fish is slightly crispy, flip over and cook for a further 3 mins on the other side. Just before you remove the fish from the pan, add any remaining marinade and let it sizzle for 10 secs. Place 2 of the fillets, skin-side up, with their juices on a plate and cover with foil to keep warm. Put the other 2 fillets on another plate if using for Flaked salmon salad (see 'goes well with'), cover with foil, leave to cool, then chill.
• In a frying pan or wok, heat the rapeseed and sesame oils over a high heat. Add the spring onion, garlic, chilli and ginger, and stir constantly for about 1 min. Add the sugar snap peas, pak choi and pepper, and stir for another 1-2 mins, then add the cooked noodles. Toss well, then add the soy sauce, fish sauce and lime juice, and mix until well combined and the pan is sizzling.
• Remove from the heat and divide between 2 bowls. Top each with a salmon fillet and drizzle over any juices. Sprinkle with coriander and serve.

ASIAN SALMON

Steps:

• Make several shallow slashes in the skinless side of the salmon fillets. Place fillets skin-side down in a glass baking dish. In a medium bowl, whisk together the olive oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, pepper, onion and sesame oil. Pour the liquid over the salmon, cover, and refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, water, and dill weed. Cover pan, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cook 20 minutes, until rice is tender and water has been absorbed. Allow to stand for 5 minutes before removing lid and fluffing rice with a fork.
• Remove cover from salmon, and bake the fish and the marinade for about 30 minutes, or until fish can be flaked with a fork. Serve salmon over the rice, and pour sauce over.

GINGER-SOY SALMON & ASIAN NOODLES

Steps:

• Ginger-Soy Salmon: Place the salmon in a shallow baking dish or large pie plate. Whisk together all of the remaining ingredients but only 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil. Pour the mixture over the salmon and turn the salmon to coat. Let marinate in the refrigerator for 20 - 30 minutes, turning once. Note: Can place fish in ziplock bag with marinade and massage to coat evenly.
• Preheat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Cook the salmon for 3-4 minutes per side. Serve each piece of salmon atop Asian-Style Noodles.
• Asian-Style Noodles: Cook the pasta 1 minute shy of the package directions.
• In the meantime, heat a large skillet or wok over med-high heat. Add the vegetable oil until it starts to smoke. Add the bell peppers and snap peas until they start to brown a little, about 2 minutes. Add the carrots and onion and cook 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium and add the garlic and ginger and cook one minute, stirring constantly so the garlic doesn't burn. Add the soy sauce and vegetable broth and let cook another 2 minutes. Add the pasta and cook another 2 minutes. Divide among four plates or shallow bowls, top with Asian-Marinated Salmon.

Steps:

• Heat sesame oil in skillet over medium heat until it bubbles around the tip of a spoon when dipped in.
