⬇️ PASSION FRUIT GLAZED SALMON Serves 4
🛒 INGREDIENTS:
· 4 salmon fillets (6oz each), skin on
· 6 ripe passion fruits, halved and pulp scooped out
· 3 tbsp honey
· 2 tbsp soy sauce
· 1 tbsp fresh ginger, grated
· 2 garlic cloves, minced
· 1 tbsp olive oil
· Juice of 1 lime
· Salt and black pepper to taste
· Fresh cilantro and lime wedges to garnish
· Steamed jasmine rice or roasted vegetables to serve
👨🍳 METHOD:
1. Make the glaze: Combine passion fruit pulp, honey, soy sauce, ginger, garlic and lime juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir well and simmer for 8-10 mins until slightly thickened and glossy. Strain through a fine sieve to remove seeds if preferred, or leave them in for texture. Set aside.
2. Pat salmon fillets dry with paper towel. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
3. Heat olive oil in a large non-stick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Place salmon skin-side up and sear for 3-4 mins until deep golden. Flip carefully.
4. Reduce heat to medium. Brush salmon generously with passion fruit glaze. Cook for another 3-4 mins, brushing with more glaze every minute until salmon is cooked through and glaze is caramelized and sticky.
5. Remove from heat. Rest for 2 mins before serving.
6. Plate over steamed jasmine rice or roasted vegetables. Spoon any remaining glaze over the top. Garnish with fresh cilantro and a lime wedge.
🍋 Chef Rick's tip: Don't skip straining the glaze, a smooth, glossy finish on the salmon is what takes this from home cook to chef-level presentation.
