Save it, plan it, shop for it.
Supper turns recipes like this into a planned week and a sorted grocery list — then walks you through cooking, hands-free. Coming soon to iOS.
Ingredients
Serves 2- 1 garlic clove (peeled and minced)
- 1 small carrot (peeled and sliced into matchsticks)
- ½ red bell pepper (deseeded and sliced)
- 100 g (3.5 oz) fresh baby corn (sliced in half, lengthways)
- 6 spring onions (scallions) (sliced into thin strips)
- lime wedges
- 2 skin-on salmon fillets
- 1.5 tbsp honey
- 1.5 tbsp light soy sauce
- 1 red chilli (sliced (deseed it if you don’t want it too hot))
- cooked rice
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 2 tsp neutral oil ((avocado oil, rapeseed or sunflower are good))
- 1 tsp mixed black and white sesame seeds
Open in Supper to scale servings and turn this into a grocery list.
Steps
- Step 1
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/gas mark 6 (fan).
- Step 2
In a small bowl, mix together the sunflower oil, sesame oil, garlic, soy sauce, and honey.
- Step 3
Take two large pieces of baking parchment, fold each one in half, and cut into a semi-circle. Unfold and place on a baking tray (sheet).
- Step 4
Place a salmon fillet , skin-side-down, inside each of the parchment circles, sitting them on the fold line.
- Step 5
Arrange the red pepper, baby corn, and carrot around the salmon fillets.
- Step 6
Scrunch up the edges of the parchment circles a little (so the sauce doesn’t run out) and spoon the soy mixture over the salmon fillets, then arrange the sliced chilli on top.
- Step 7
Bring the four corners of the parchment paper together and fold them over several times, then twist so the paper is completely sealed. Make sure there are no gaps for the sauce to escape from.
- Step 8
Place the baking tray (sheet) in the oven and cook for 18 minutes, until the salmon is tender.
- Step 9
Open up the parcels carefully (steam will escape) and sprinkle over the sliced spring onion and sesame seeds and nestle in a couple of lime wedges.
- Step 10
I like to serve the salmon, still in the paper, with rice. There will be some lovely flavourful liquid in the parcels, which taste delicious, poured straight over the rice.
Interactive, hands-free timers are available in the Supper app.
Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/gas mark 6 (fan).
