Salmon topped with mango salsa

Serves: 4

Cooking Time: 30 mins + extra to marinate

Ingredients

Mango salsa
1 small mango, peeled and cubed
2 spring onions or ¼ red onion, chopped
¼ red pepper, chopped
a handful of fresh coriander
10ml (2 tsp) olive oil
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Marinade
10ml (2 tsp) fresh ginger, grated
30ml (2 tbsp) treacle brown sugar
30ml (2 tbsp) olive oil
5ml (1 tsp) ground paprika
30ml (2 tbsp) lemon zest
15ml (1 tbsp) soy sauce
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
lemon juice, to taste
4 x 200g salmon fillets, with skin
olive oil, to brush

Instructions

For the salsa, combine the mango, onion and pepper and toss through the coriander and olive oil. Season and chill until needed.

For the marinade, mix all the ingredients together in a sealable plastic bag. Add the salm on fillets, seal the bag and massage the marinade into the fish. Marinate for at least 2 hours.

Just before grilling, pour over some lemon juice. Remove the fish from the marinade and slash the skin with a sharp knife to stop it from curling.

Heat a grilling pan and brush it with the olive oil. Grill the fish flesh-side down for 5 minutes. Turn it over and grill for another 5 minutes. Lower the heat if the fish begins to burn.

Serve the salmon topped with the salsa.
