MARINATED SMOKED SALMON WITH POPPY SEEDS

Drizzling smoked salmon with this fresh dressing helps to cut through its natural richness and makes a great change to the usual squeeze of lemon

Provided by Good Food team

Categories     Canapes, Dinner

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tbsp poppy seed , lightly toasted
2 oranges , zest of both, juice of 1
2 tsp red wine vinegar
2 tsp olive oil
½ tsp sesame oil
300g smoked salmon
85g radish , trimmed and finely sliced
3 spring onions , finely sliced
toasted rye or soda bread, to serve

Steps:

  • Whisk together the poppy seeds, orange zest and juice, vinegar and oils with some black pepper and a pinch of salt - be sparing with the salt, as smoked salmon is naturally quite salty.
  • Carefully separate the slices of salmon, then put into a mixing bowl with most of the radishes and spring onions. Drizzle over the dressing and gently toss together lightly - using your hands is best. Let the salmon marinate for just 5-10 mins while you toast the bread - any longer and the vinegar will begin to 'cook' the fish.
  • Spread the salmon over a large plate or platter, pour over any dressing left in the bowl, then scatter over the reserved radishes and spring onions. Bring to the table with toasted bread and a few forks, and let everyone help themselves.

Categories     Fish     Mushroom     Dinner     Seafood     Salmon     Bell Pepper     Healthy     Bok Choy     Soy Sauce     Pescatarian     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     No Sugar Added

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup sesame seeds
1 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes
4 salmon fillets, about 4 oz each
2 teaspoons olive oil
2 carrots, cut into matchsticks
2 red bell peppers, cored, seeded, and thinly sliced
8 oz shiitake mushrooms, halved
2 bok choy, quartered lengthwise
4 scallions, shredded
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
basmati or long-grain rice, to serve

Steps:

  • Mix the sesame seeds and red pepper flakes on a plate, then press the salmon fillets into the mixture to coat.
  • Heat half the oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat, add the salmon, and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, until cooked through. Remove from the skillet and keep warm.
  • Heat the remaining oil in the skillet over high heat, add the vegetables, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until just cooked. Drizzle the soy sauce over the vegetables and serve with the salmon and basmati rice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right salmon. For this recipe, it's best to use a fresh, wild-caught salmon fillet. If you can't find wild-caught salmon, then use a sustainably farmed salmon fillet.
  • Cook the salmon properly. The salmon should be cooked through, but not overcooked. Overcooked salmon will be dry and tough.
  • Make the poppy seed sauce ahead of time. The sauce can be made up to 2 days in advance. This will save you time on the day you're making the salmon.
  • Serve the salmon with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

This salmon with poppy seed sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion. The salmon is cooked to perfection and the poppy seed sauce is creamy and flavorful. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
