Ingredients
Recipe
- 350 gm – 800gm fillet of salmon skin on and pin boned (at room temperature)
- 3 cups of strongly brewed rooibos tea
- 1 lemon sliced
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 tsp whole peppercorns
- 1 Tbs sea salt flakes such as Maldon
Vinaigrette
- 1 ½ tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp honey
- ¼ cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tbsp good quality white wine vinegar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice I used a little of the lemon from the poaching liquid
- Pinch of freshly ground black pepper and sea salt flakes.
Instructions
- Brew the tea and then add it to a wide-bottomed pot or pan along with the lemon, honey, salt, and peppercorns. Bring to a simmer. Add the salmon – skin side up and poach at a very gentle simmer for 5 – 8 minutes depending on the size.
- Flip the salmon about ¾ of the way through the cooking time. *at this point you can check if it is cooked through
- Remove the cooked salmon with a slotted lifter and allow it to drain on kitchen paper.
- Make the vinaigrette by placing all the ingredients in a jar and shaking vigorously until it thickened and emulsified. Drizzle the dressing over the warm fish and serve with steamed fresh asparagus and green leaves.
