Salmon with Mango Salsa
This has to be one of my favourite salmon recipes. I find salmon quite rich, but served with this delicious salsa it balances out the richness of the fish.
Off to the Auckland Fish Market I went to get the freshest salmon I could find to feed three adults tonight. (The recipe is to serve four). I'm pretty sure this recipe is from an old Taste magazine, but I only have the piece of paper, so not sure.
Ingredients
3 x 200g salmon fillets
1 Tbsp olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
Salsa:
1 large mango, peeled and diced
1/4 cup chopped fresh coriander
1/4 cup finely cropped red onion
1/4 cup orange juice
1 tsp orange zest
2 tsps finely cropped red chilli (or 1 tsp minced red chilli)
1 garlic clove, crushed
1 1/2 Tbsp olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper
To serve:
3 poppadoms
Method
1 Combine the salsa ingredients in a small bowl and season with salt and pepper and set aside.
2 Preheat oven to 180Celsius.
3 Heat an oven-proof, non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Rub the salmon fillets with oil and season well with salt and pepper. Place salmon fillets into the frying pan, skin side up.
4 Sear until brown and crisp, about 3 mins. Turn the fillets over and bake in the oven until just cooked through, about 5-10 mins.
5 Place each fillet on a poppadom and top with salsa.
