Sticky maple and soy glazed salmon

March 9, 2012 by Katie Bryson

sticky glazed salmon

Getting real fish into my kids via oven chip distraction tactics

I made something so simple but so tasty I had to share it with you. I think fish is best cooked without fuss, and this glaze sticks to that rule with just two ingredients – maple syrup and soy sauce. Classic salty and sweet.

Teaming it up with oven chips and peas and sweetcorn may not look very classy, but this meant the boys shovelled it down their necks without so much as a “what’s THIS mummy?!”

If i’d sat it next to cous cous or rice, I’m not sure i’d have had the same success. Sometimes distraction is the best approach!

I used to really hate fish as a child, so it pleases me greatly when I can get my lads to eat things like salmon.

Sticky maple and soy glazed salmon 
feeds 4
prep time:  5 mins, plus 1 hour marinating
cook time: 15-20 mins

INGREDIENTS
4 tbsp maple syrup
2 tbsp soy sauce
4 salmon fillets

METHOD
1. Mix together the maple syrup and soy sauce in a little bowl with some seasoning.

2. Place your salmon fillets in a shallow ovenproof dish and brush all over with the marinade. Cover the dish with cling film and then pop in the fridge for an hour.

3. Pre-heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Take the salmon out of the fridge, take off the cling film and pop the dish in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes.

Beautiful little book the audience were all given Beautiful little book the audience were all given at last night’s performance of #Here from @curious.monkey_ at @northern_stage. Such a powerful performance from the talented cast bringing together individual stories of what it means to seek sanctuary in the North East, the friendships that are forged and the spark of hope that refuses to be snuffed out. With the plight of refugees so visible right now,  the timing of this performance was impeccable. #RefugeesWelcome #togetherwithrefugees🧡 #StoryCollectors
