Ingredients

  1. 4 king salmon portions (approx. 200g each)
  2. 3 tbsp ginger marmalade
  3. 2 tbsp fresh lime juice
  4. 1 tbsp brown sugar
  5. 1 tbsp soy sauce
  6. 4 kaffir (makrut) lime leaves, finely shredded
  7. 1 tsp finely chopped lemongrass
  8. 1/4 tsp dried chilli flakes
  9. 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander

Method

  1. Make the glaze by stirring together the Ginger Marmalade, lime juice, brown sugar, soy sauce, finely shredded makrut lime leaves, finely chopped lemongrass, and dried chili flakes in a
    saucepan over low heat for 2 minutes or until the marmalade dissolves. Increase the heat to medium-low and simmer for 8-10 minutes or until the glaze thickens. Stir in the chopped fresh coriander.
  2. Preheat a barbecue grill or flat plate on medium-high heat. Cook the 4 salmon portions for 2 minutes on each side or until almost cooked through. Reduce the heat to medium, then brush the salmon with the glaze. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes on each side or until the salmon is glossy and charred.

Chef's Tip

King salmon pairs beautifully with aromatic Asian flavours like kaffir lime, lemongrass, and ginger because they brighten the natural richness of the fish without overpowering it. Cook the salmon until just medium in the center, then glaze at the end so the sugars caramelise lightly without burning. The result should be glossy, fragrant, and perfectly balanced between sweet, citrusy, and smoky.
