Poached oriental salmon
A whole poached salmon looks
impressive, and tastes great
cooked with oriental-style
flavourings. You can get salmon
from Asda’s fresh fish counter.
The fish come in three sizes
– small, medium and large – as
a general guide, about 2.5kg is
ideal for eight people. Place your
order at the counter a few days
ahead of your party to be sure
of getting the size you want.

Ingredients
Method
1 Put the lime slices inside the salmon and put it in a fish kettle or large roasting tin.2 Scatter over the garlic, ginger, half the spring onions, the vinegar and enough water cover the fish. 3 Bring the fish slowly to the boil over a low heat, then cover and simmer very gently for 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and leave to cool in the cooking liquid for 3 hours. 4 Drain the fish, lift it out onto a work surface and carefully remove the skin. Discard the liquid and the lime slices, and reserve the garlic and ginger pieces. 5 Warm the sauce with the sherry and reserved garlic and ginger. Lay the salmon on a large platter, pour over the sauce, then cover and chill until ready to serve. Scatter over the sesame seeds and garnish with the remaining shredded spring onions, fresh lemon and lime wedges and fresh coriander.
