Salmon

[foxybrown]

Does anyone have any good recipes for Salmon??

I normally just pan fry it and sprinkle lemon pepper over it before cooking..I also squeeze lemon juice over it before serving. This is ok but I still find it rather bland so I have to have it with a tbsp of thai sweet chilli sauce.

I also have to put up with complaints from my flatmates of the smell it reeks when it is cooking!!

Does anyone have any other ways of cooking salmon??

its really nice if you squeeze lemon juice on top of it ,top it with dill or herbs of your choice, put a few assorted veges on top and bake it in the oven wrapped in tinfoil until cooked. It si also quite nice poached in chicken stock (although i do prefer it done in wine!!)

Thanks for that one Tammy - I'll give it a go next time Salmon is on the menu!

Had Salmon on Thurs nite & cooked it in the tinfoil with veges - worked like a gem!! As well as that, there was no "fishy" smell for my flatmates to complain about

It took 30mins all up for everything to cook evenly which isn't too bad...I'm going to try cooking my chicken like this as well

hey foxy try using the thai fish cakes mix from watties. through in some potatoe mash and fry them. nice and spicey, and as long as you use around 2 cans and about 6 potatoes with the mix you'll get a reasonable ratio of carbs and protein, if you halve the total cooked. I find them usefull as heck to eat after a work out.

cheers,

another idea for salmon!!!

get 2 bits of vogels and toast. throw some pasta or sweet chilli sauce on them. can of salmon drain, and throw ontop of the toast. get some of the Bega diet cheese slice on each and grill them to melt the cheese.

These kick arse and make it over eadible, very addictive

cal 300-400

protein 30-40

fat 10-20

carb 30-40

ish, don't quote me on these, they are just what i have roughly worked out

give it a try and get back to me with ideas on improvement

I make salmon and prawn parcels....

I place a fillet of salmon rinsed and dried with a paper towel onto a sheet of baking paper grind salt and pepper over to taste. Also add crushed garlic and herbs of your choice. Finally pack fresh prawns around the sides of the fillet and top with finely sliced lemon.

Wrap the salmon parcel and bake in a hot oven until it smells cooked. This recipe is great because the salmon stays nice and moist and the flavors are baked in. Good for dinner parties too... looks nice unlike lots of high protein dished.

Hope you like it!

Nothing like reviving an old post though.... I am constantly looking for inspiration.

Sprinkle it with a little chinese 5 spice, then grill on 'george' till cooked.

Open the kitchen window to get the salmon smell out of the kitchen.
