There's an orange in my salmon

Salmon round two. This week there was an oriental twist with sweet and savory infusions from a little pre-marinade prep. It took 10 minutes maximum to prepare and most was done without supervision so if one wishes, multi-task away. 

Served with fragrant brown rice (trying to stick to wholemeal) that was perfumed with cinnamon and lemon juice stirred in with raisins and peas. 

For the marinade combine orange juice, soy sauce and minced ginger in a saucepan.

Reduce the marinade until there is 3/4 less liquid and marinade.

Cover brown rice, sultanas and cinnamon with water.

Boil until rice is tender and water is absorbed. Add more water if necessary.

Add peas in at the last couple of minutes.

The salmon was sweet and sticky and the rice was nice enough to eat on its own as a simple rice salad. We'll forget about the steamed spinach. Spinached out through binge eating it and especially not a fan of the steamed soggy variety.

I am now a lover of all things salmon and will never dismiss it as a boring mid week meal. All it needs is a little TLC. Or a simple marinade and rice side.
