Salmon Twist Food

SALMON TWIST

Steps:

• Combine water, soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, lemon juice, cornstarch, garlic powder, and black pepper together in a saucepan; cook over medium-high heat until sauce is thickened, 5 to 10 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Arrange salmon fillets on the prepared baking sheet. Brush sauce on both sides of each fillet. Fold aluminum foil loosely over fillets and seal edges together creating a packet.
• Bake in the preheated oven until fish flakes easily with a fork, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Bring remaining marinade to a boil and serve alongside cooked salmon.

SALMON EN PAPILLOTE (ASIAN TWIST)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 180°C.
• Place the spinach on the baking paper. Add the chilies, 3/4 of the mushrooms and the asparagus and season with some pepper.
• Place the salmon on top of asparagus and add the grated ginger and season with more pepper. Top the salmon with the rest of the mushrooms.
• Fold the paper over to enclose the filling. Fold in the edge to seal, leaving a gap of approx 3cm.
• Mix the wet ingredients into a 'dressing'. Adjust to taste.
• Pour the 'dressing' inside the paper through the gap. Now you can fold in the rest of the paper. The dressing will help keep the salmon moist and will add flavor to the dish.
• Place the fish on a large baking tray and bake for 12 minutes or until the salmon is just cooked. I prefer it medium done in the middle.
• Serve with a side salad.

SALMON & CUCUMBER TWISTS

Steps:

• Cut the cucumber on the diagonal into slices about 0.5-1cm thick. Twist the strips of salmon around the cucumber slices, then arrange on a serving plate.
• Mix together the crème fraîche, lemon juice and a little salt, then dollop a little on top of the salmon. Sprinkle over some black pepper and lemon zest before serving.

MEDITERRANEAN-TWIST SALMON

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook salmon in the hot oil until cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 5 to 7 minutes per side.
• Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a separate saucepan over medium heat; add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add tomatoes; cook until heated through, about 5 minutes. Pour balsamic vinegar into tomato mixture; add basil. Cook and stir tomato mixture until flavors blend, about 3 minutes.
• Place salmon on a plate and top with tomato sauce.
