Rooibos tea-smoked salmon

Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets
  • 12 rooibos tea bags (tea leaves
  • removed from the bags)
  • 1 cup uncooked rice
  • 30 – 45ml (2 – 3 tbsp) water
  • ½ small cucumber, chopped, to serve

Instructions

1

Line a wok with 4 layers of foil, allowing the edges to overhang. If your wok doesn’t have a lid, you'll need extra foil to lock in the smoke.

2

Spread the tea mixture over the base and heat the mixture until it just starts to smoke.

3

Place the salmon fillets in an oiled steamer or on a wire rack. There should be a gap between the tea mixture and the fish to allow the food to smoke. Cover with foil or a wok lid and cook for 10 – 12 minutes.

4

Serve with chopped cucumber.
