Ginger, Soy and Red Chilli Salmon (2.5 syns)
This is dish is beautiful and unbelievably easy to make. Even if you don't like salmon much, you will love this one. It's sweet with a touch of saltiness and is just simply yum. I've made this dish about 30 times because it is that good. It never fails to impress and all my guests always say mmmmmmmm!
