I'll admit, I prefer fish to meat. Always have done. Always will do. When I get salmon, it literally makes me happy inside! It infuriates me when students say that eating healthily and nutritious/interesting food is expensive and can't be done. FOOLS!
Most of my meals cost a lot less to put together than buying excessive takeaways and eating out, plus I enjoy them more and my body appreciates them too!I've found shopping in Asian supermarkets quite an experience! The fruit and vegetables are extremely cheap (the other day I got 20 oranges for a £1 and 4 cucumbers for a £1! and three mangoes for £1) and fresh, and you find some real treasures there too! Coconut essence? Bingo. Ginger? Bingo. Spices? CHECK! Anyway, I'm going off on a tangent here. This was really simple to make and light and fresh too!
♥ 1 Small Red Pepper (sliced and diced)
♥ 1 Small White Onion (small slices)
♥ 1 Garlic Clove
♥ 50g Dried Mango Slices
♥ Chilli Flakes
♥ 2 Pieces of sliced fresh ginger
♥ 2 Salmon Fillets1. Sautee the vegetables in a pan over a low heat so the pepper slightly chars and the onion goes soft. Add half the ginger, the chilli flakes and set aside.
2. Steam the salmon fillets until soft and flaky, top with the ginger and chilli before wrapping in tinfoil and allowing the flavours to settle.
3. Add the mango to the vegetables and allow to soften and get warm. Then, serve the salmon on top of the vegetables and serve.
I chose to serve my salmon with a sweet potato, and courgette and spinach salad.
