• To a large platter, add the lettuce and evenly sprinkle with tomatoes, cucumber, and cheese.

SALMON WITH SWEET SOUR DRESSING AND SPICY GREEN SALAD

Steps:

• To prepare the salad, toss the chillies, cilantro leaves, mint leaves, shallots, snow peas and sliced lime leaves together in a bowl, then set aside.
• To prepare the dressing, stir the brown and white sugars with 5 tablespoons water in a medium-sized saucepan over low heat, until the sugars have dissolved. Increase heat to medium, and continue to cook until lightly golden. Remove from heat, add the fish sauce and lime juice (be careful, it will splatter), and stir to combine.
• To cook the fish, firstly mix the flour and salt together in a bowl. Add the fish and coat well.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed (preferably nonstick) sauté pan just large enough to hold the salmon; it will be the right temperature when the oil forms ripples and barely begins to smoke.
• For inch-thick fillets, sauté over high heat for 3 to 5 minutes on the first side, then turn with a spatula and sauté for 2 to 3 minutes on the second side, depending on how you like your salmon done; saute the salmon more on the first side (the presentation side) than the second, so that you end up with a savory golden crust or crisp skin.
• Serve the fish topped with the spicy green salad. Spoon over the sweet and sour dressing, and serve with lime quarters.

SWEET AND SPICY GRILLED SALMON

• Sprinkle the salmon with salt and pepper. Brush the grill grate lightly with oil. Lay the salmon on the grill, skin-side up, and cook until distinct grill marks appear and the salmon releases easily from the grate, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn and brush the fish with some of the reserved sauce. Continue to cook the fish, brushing the pieces periodically with the sauce, until the salmon fillets are glazed and just cooked through, 13 to 15 minutes more.
• Transfer the fillets to individual plates and serve with the celery slaw.

SPICY-SWEET GLAZED SALMON

Steps:

• Place salmon in a shallow, flat dish, and set aside. Combine the vinegar, olive oil, soy sauce, water, lemon juice, red pepper flakes, onion powder, garlic powder, cilantro, and brown sugar in a blender. Blend until brown sugar dissolves. Pour the marinade over the salmon to cover evenly. Cover the dish, and refrigerate at least 2 hours.
• Line a broiling pan with foil. Remove salmon from marinade, and place on prepared broiling pan; season to taste with salt and pepper. Transfer remaining marinade to a saucepan.
• Turn on broiler to low.
• Broil salmon about 6 inches from the heat for 5 minutes; brush with remaining marinade. Broil an additional 5 to 10 minutes, brushing 2 or 3 more times with additional marinade. Salmon is done when fish is no longer bright red and can be flaked with a fork.
• Meanwhile, cook the remaining marinade over low heat until it thickens and reduces by one-third, 5 to 10 minutes. Use cooked marinade as a dipping sauce or drizzle over salmon just before serving.
