Description
Asian sweet glazed salmon is a flavourful and aromatic dish that perfectly balances sweet, tangy and umami-rich flavours. The salmon is marinated in a fragrant mixture of ketjap manis (sweet soy sauce), lime zest, ginger, garlic and sesame oil, infusing it with deep, caramelised notes. After baking, it's finished with a charred lime garnish for a smoky touch and topped with fresh coriander and shiso leaves for a burst of freshness. This dish is a perfect combination of succulent, flaky fish and bold Asian-inspired flavours, making it an elegant yet simple meal.
- 1 whole side salmon, fresh
- 175ml kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)
- 100g coriander (finely chopped stalks for a sauce and leaves for garnish)

- 2 garlic cloves (microplaned)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp fish sauce
- 1/3 red chilli
