Again, i'm not totally sure what this comes under. I wanted to put this under Asian however it's got a lot of ingredients that aren't Asian...too
much for me to still be able to call it Asian. SO then it's really just fish.

It's got unusual flavours that I wouldn't usually think would go together. Lime and apricots? and salmon with rocket? .... And mustard? But surprisingly enough it works.
Citrus Mustard Glazed Salmon
Serves: 2
Ingredients
2 fillets salmon
40g lime marmalade ( apricot works too )
1 heaped tsp dijon mustard
1 heaped tsp wholegrain mustard
half a lime, juice
2tsp soy sauce
2tsp ginger
2 cloves garlic
2 tsp sesame oil
40g dired apricots, roughly chopped
A packet of asparagus and rocket, to serve
healthy grains or sweet potato ( or whatever else you like to serve with the salmon )
seeds, to sprinkle
Method
- Preheat the oven 180 degrees.
- line a deep set baking tray with baking paper or tin foil. Place the two salmon fillets inside.
- Combine all the sauce ingredients together and pour it over the salmon. Rub it in. Cover and marinate for 30 minutes or overnight for more flavour.
- Once ready to cook, place the fish in the oven and cook for 15-20 minutes, depending on the size of the fillets.
- OPTIONAL, roast the cashews alongside the fish in the oven
- Meanwhile cook the grain, sweet potato or rice. Cook some water in a small sauce pan. Once it's boiling rapidly, place a sieve over and add the asparagus. Cover with tin foil and steam for 5-7 minutes or until cooked to your preference.
- Once the fish is cooked and flaky, remove from the oven.
- Stir the apricots through the grain. Place the rocket on the plate. Pour the grain or sweet potato ( or whatever you like ) on top and finish with the salmon fillet.
- Add the asparagus beside the fish and sprinkle some seeds on top for extra garnish.
