Ingredients
- 6 medium Salmon fillets skinless and boneless
- Coriander to garnish
For the glaze:
- 2 tablespoons tamarind paste
- 4 tablespoons honey
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice optional – leave it out if you prefer less tartness
- 1 teaspoon grated ginger
- 1 teaspoon chilli flakes
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil or any Vegetable oil of your preference
- Salt to season
Instructions
- Clean the salmon fillets and pat them with a kitchen towel to dry. Keep aside.
- While you are prepping the ingredients for the glaze, preheat a grill-pan on the stovetop.
- In a bowl, combine all the ingredients mentioned under ‘glaze.’
- Brush some of the glaze onto both side of the salmon fillets. Use no more than 1/3 of the glaze.
- Transfer the fillets to the heated grill-pan and grill on one side for 3 minutes, until browned, then flip it over gently and grill the other side for 2 minutes.
- As the fish is grilling, in a small saucepan, warm up the rest of the glaze on medium heat. Let it heat for 3-4 minutes. Take it off the heat and let it cool.
- To serve, spoon the glaze over the salmon fillets and serve over rice or rice noodles.
