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.
