Honey Soy Salmon

Beautifully flaky salmon seasoned perfectly with a sweet, sticky, salty glaze. Salmon is easily one of my favourite fish and it’s so simple to cook with great results in the air fryer. Serve it with steamed rice, grilled spring onions or broccoli.

Serves: 4

Prep Time: 5 minutes (30 minutes marinating)

Ingredients:

3 tbsp of dark soy sauce

3 tbsp of runny honey

1 tbsp of sesame oil

2 garlic cloves, crushed

1 ½ inch piece of fresh ginger, finely chopped or grated

1 tsp of chilli flakes

4 skinless salmon fillets

Method:

Step 1

Make a marinade by whisking together your soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, garlic, ginger and chilli flakes. Pour the marinade over the salmon and set aside in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.

Step 2

Heat the air fryer to 180°C/350°F.

Step 3

Lift the salmon fillets out of the marinade (reserve the marinade in the bowl), place them in the air-fryer basket and cook for 7-9 minutes, until cooked and flaky. Or cook in a pan.

Step 4

Meanwhile, tip the reserved marinade into a small saucepan over a medium heat, add ½ cup of water and reduce until glossy. Taste to check the seasoning – you might need to add a splash of rice wine vinegar and honey to balance the flavours. Blitz until smooth if you like.

Step 5

Serve the salmon with the sauce drizzled over.
