A delicious and fresh fish recipe is the perfect supper after a busy day, and this one is simple, quick and tasty!
I love being creative in the kitchen, and always try to create recipes with free-from at the heart of them. It's got to pass the Callum test, and then the hubby test otherwise it's back to the drawing board!
When I was recently approached by Norwegian Seafood Council and asked to create a recipe using some of their delicious salmon, I jumped at the chance. I was challenged with a recipe idea that would be simple, quick, fresh and of course tasty, and I think this recipe fits the bill.
It uses fresh ingredients, has a lovely zing from the spices and fresh ginger, and is a filling and healthy option.
The beauty of this recipe is that it's not only healthy and nutritious, it’s also quick and simple to make, perfect for a quick supper after a busy day. It’s a recipe the whole family can enjoy, and even join in to make!
As well as sharing the recipe, the challenge also asked for a quick recipe video, so here it is!
If this recipe inspires you to give it a try, you can find Norwegian Salmon in Tesco, and also other supermarkets.
