Healthy Salmon & Vegetables



Healthy Salmon  
I thought I would share this simple salmon recipe, its healthy with vitamins and really easy to make. You can really add all kinds of ingredients but this what I did yesterday. Basically pre-heat your oven to about 190 C and place the salmon into a dish skin side down. For the fish dish, you need:
 
Salmon
1 lemon
Soy Sauce
Pepper 
Salt 
Garlic
Herbs (of choice) - I used oregano
Olive Oil

All you need to do is add a bit of soy sauce, black pepper and salt on top of the salmon. Then slice the lemon and place a few under but the majority on top of the salmon. The fish soaks the lemon flavours when it heats and becomes nice and sweet.  Then, add garlic cloves all over- they do not even need to be pealed because once they become all soft and sweet, you can just pop them in your mouth and the skin comes off.. Next, add some olive oil and herds of your choice. - Extra tip: you can add dollops of creme bonjour ( for example the shrimp flavour) on top of the fish for richness.  Now place the dish into your oven for about 30-40min depending on the size.


For the vegetable side dish: 
Mean while the fish is in the oven, you can prepare the side dish. Basically you can use whatever vegetables there are in your fridge and add as much as you like. For this mixture you need: 

Zucchini 
Tomatoes 
Cabbage
Onion
Cauliflower
Chili 
Hoi Sin sauce
Oyster sauce or teriyaki sauce
fresh basil
soi sauce

Slice the ingredients to about the same size and place into a pan (in this case I used a wok pan). Add a little water into the bottom so the vegetables begin to steam and place the lid on.  After they begin to soften a little, add some flavour to them by adding a bit of hoi-sin and oyster sauce. Also add a bit of soy sauce and in the end, add fresh basil.
Bon Appétit
