METHOD
Salmon
- Dissolve the sea salt and sugar in cold water. Cover salmon with the brine and leave at room temperature for 1 hour. Remove and pat dry.
- Meanwhile, make the orange mustard glaze.
- Preheat oven on Fan Grill at 240°C.
- Place a grilling and roasting insert into a universal tray. Place a square of foil on the insert and brush lightly with grapeseed oil.
- Place the salmon on the foil and lightly brush with the orange mustard glaze. Place into the oven on shelf position 4 and cook for 6 minutes.
- Lightly glaze again, place on shelf position 5 and cook for a further 6 minutes.
Orange mustard glaze
- Place ingredients into a small saucepan and bring to the boil on high heat, induction setting 8. Turn down the heat to induction setting 5 and reduce by half. Allow to cool completely.
To serve
- Place the fennel in cold water for 10 minutes, then drain and dry. Toss the fennel in lemon juice, olive oil and sea salt. Mix with watercress and grapefruit.
- Place the salmon on a warm serving platter, scatter with fennel and watercress salad and sprinkle over chives.
Hints and tips
- Ginger can be replaced with either horseradish or wasabi for alternative flavours.
- Extend or decrease the cooking time of the salmon, depending on degree of doneness. Being careful, as an extended cooking time may lead to the glaze burning.
