Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9 / air fryer 200C
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper
- Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil
- Pull out a medium frying pan, a small bowl, a sieve & a grater
Do the prep
- Finely chop or grate the garlic and ginger. Thinly slice the red onion and pak choi. Thinly slice half the chilli, dice the remaining. Roughly chop the coriander
Fry the salmon & cook the noodles
- Season the salmon with salt and pepper. Heat the large frying pan with half the sesame oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the salmon, skin-side down, and cook for 3 mins, then flip and cook for another 3 mins, until golden. Transfer to the lined baking tray, skin-side down, and bake for 10 mins / air fryer 9 mins
- Add the noodles to the saucepan, gently separate with a fork and boil for 3-4 mins. In the final 1 min, add the edamame then drain together and rinse under cold water
Stir fry the veg
- Reheat the medium frying pan with the remaining sesame oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the red onion and cook for 3-4 mins. Season with salt and pepper
- Add the pak choi, ginger, garlic and diced chilli (use less for less heat) and cook for a further 2 mins
Glaze the salmon & bring it all together
- In the small bowl, combine the orange miso dressing with the hot honey
- After 10 mins / air fryer 9 mins, coat the salmon with half the miso dressing and bake for a further 5 mins / air fryer 3 mins, until cooked through
- Once cooked, toss the noodles, edamame, tamari, half the coriander and 1 tbsp water (1/2 tbsp for 1 person) into the veg pan. Cook for a final 1 min, until piping hot
Plate up
- Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
- Share the noodles between bowls, topped with the salmon. Drizzle with the remaining dressing, scatter with the reserved coriander and sliced chilli (for those who like the heat)
