Steamed Salmon Recipes?
« on: April 26, 2010, 06:15:06 am »
Hello all!

I was having a look for a fairly simple dish that would incorporate steamed salmon.  Wanting a complete meal that can be made pretty much at the same time if possible! 

I saw the Snapper/Trout Di Josie in the EDC... would that recipe be suitable for salmon too?

We're trying to get a meal plan happening and then tweaking it to use as weight loss but we need to make sure we'll eat it first before we start tweaking! hehehehe!!!

Interested in salmon recipes as that's pretty much the only fish we eat.

I use an adaption to my old salmon recipe. You can try this;
For each portion of salmon I make a little dish with alfoil and set these with the salmon in on the tray of the varoma. I put whatever vegies will cook in 20 min in the bottom. I put rice in the basket. Fill bowl with 500 ml water. add salt to rice to your taste.
Season the salmon wih a teaspoon soy on each, a dollop (about a teaspoon or 2) of butter, and a heaped teaspoon of brown sugar.
Time 20 minutes, Speed 4, varoma temp.

If I use brown rice I soak it in hot water for 30 min or so before starting.

enjoy

Sweet.  So do you wrap them up in the alfoil or just sit them on it?  If that makes any sense? lol

I mean do you wrap the fish up like a present or do you leave it open?

I leave them open. Just turn up the edges of the alfoil to hold the juices.  We had them a few nights ago I should have taken photos.

KL I wondered about fish in place of chicken too.  We had Baf65 creamy chicken last night and I cooked enough chicken for DH and DD but I had fish which I cooked it in tinfoil in the oven, but thinking of how I could put it in the varoma in foil with the chicken ???

there is a salmon recipe in the Fast & Easy cookbook which is lovely, and also a gorgeous Fish Pie in the Seafood Bounty. For the firm fish fillets in the pie I used shark, so it was fairly cost effective as there was only 120g smoked salmon as well. But it was so TASTY!

Our favourite recipe is a variaton of Ozzy  dj's recipe... steam the salmon with ginger (season with salt and pepper) as detailed in that recipe.

Once it is ready, heat peanut oil in a small pan, toss julienne strips of ginger and shallots until it sizzles. Take off the pan and pour over salmon along with some light soy sauce. Serve immediately. YUM!
