Description

Miso Salmon with Garlic Noodles combines sweet, savory caramelized salmon with buttery noodles for a comforting weeknight dinner.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 0.25 cups Mirin (Can substitute with honey and white wine vinegar.)
  • 2 tablespoons Rice Vinegar (Apple cider vinegar works as a substitute.)
  • 2 tablespoons Miso Paste (Use white or red miso.)
  • 1 tablespoon Brown Sugar (Coconut sugar can be used for a healthier option.)
  • 2 tablespoons Soy Sauce (Tamari is a good gluten-free alternative.)
  • 2 fillets Salmon Fillets (Substitute with trout or chicken if desired.)
  • 1 tablespoon Sesame Oil (Omit for a lighter dish.)
  • 3 cloves Garlic (Fresh garlic preferred; garlic powder also works.)
  • 2 stalks Spring Onion (Chives can be used as a substitute.)
  • 200 grams Noodles (You can use soba or udon noodles.)
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame Seeds (Optional garnish.)
  • 0.5 bunch Coriander/Cilantro (Adjust according to taste.)
  • 1 chilli Fresh Chillies (Adjust according to spice tolerance.)

Instructions

  1. In a small saucepan, combine ¼ cup mirin, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons miso paste, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons soy sauce. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently for about 5 minutes until thickened and fragrant. Allow to cool for 15 minutes.
  2. Place 2 salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the cooled glaze over. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  3. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil. Add 2 chopped spring onions and 3 minced garlic cloves, sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  4. Add 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, and 2 tablespoons water to the skillet. Simmer for 2-3 minutes until aromatic.
  5. Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and add to the skillet, tossing to coat well with the sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  6. Preheat the oven to 220°C (430°F). Transfer marinated salmon to a lined baking dish and drizzle any remaining glaze. Bake for 7-10 minutes until caramelized and flakes easily.
  7. Serve garlic noodles on plates, top with cooked salmon, and garnish with coriander, spring onion, and sliced chillies.
