Ingredients
Marinade
3 heaped tbsp white miso paste
50ml rice wine vinegar
50ml soy sauce
50ml Saunders’ Malt Extract (plus extra for glazing)
25ml toasted sesame oil
1 garlic clove, crushed
½ tsp grated fresh ginger
Juice of ½ lime
Salt, to taste
Glazed Salmon
1 large salmon fillet (or 4 smaller fillets)
2–3 heads of pak choy, halved
Spring onion, sliced (for garnish)
Sesame seeds (for garnish)
Steamed rice, to serve
Method
Preheat the oven to 180°C (fan-forced).
In a small bowl, whisk together the miso, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, Saunders’ Malt Extract, garlic, ginger, lime juice, and salt until smooth.
Place the salmon on a lined baking tray and form a loose foil pocket around it. Pour the glaze over the top.
Bake for 15 minutes for a slightly pink centre (medium), or adjust to your preferred finish.
While salmon is baking, blanch the pak choy in boiling water for 1–2 minutes, then drain and set aside.
Once cooked, brush the salmon with a little extra Saunders’ Malt Extract for a glossy finish.
Serve over rice with pak choy, topped with spring onion and sesame seeds
