Ingredients

2 salmon steaks 340 g
1 tbsp olive oil 15 mL
1 pinch salt [optional] 0.2 g
ground pepper to taste [optional]
1/2 mangoes, ripe 150 g
1/2 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped 1 g
1 tbsp gingerroot, grated 14 g
1/4 dried chili peppers 0.1 g
1 tbsp lime juice, freshly squeezed 1/2 lime

Before you start

The steaks can be cooked using either a broiler in the oven or an outdoor grill.

A blender or food processor will be very useful to purée the dip.

Method

  1. Place the salmon steaks in a glass baking dish. Brush them with the oil and a few drops of the lime juice, then let them marinate 10 min while preparing the barbecue, or preheating the broiler, and preparing the mango dip.
  2. Peel the mango, cut the flesh from the pit and add it to a blender. Coarsely chop the fresh cilantro, grate the ginger and mince the chili pepper, then add them to the blender. Pour in the remaining lime juice and pulse the blender until a smooth consistency is reached.
  3. Prepare the barbecue (medium-high heat) or preheat the broiler. Cook the salmon until just opaque, about 4-5 min per side. Check with a fork to see if the fish is cooked through. Add salt and pepper to taste.
  4. Serve the steaks with the dip on the side.

october 20, 2021 | I would make this recipe again

I managed to 'ruin' the mango sauce and it was STILL delicious...:) Basically, my mango wasn't ripe enough and I added pepper flakes as I didn't have an actual dried chili. I ended up adding WAY too many chili flakes as a result. I cooled it down a little with maple syrup. The mango was still green and so the sauce looked more like a pea puree, but it was still very, very tasty. I had to cook the fish a tiny bit longer, but it came out flaky and light. Just be careful of the bones!

the salmon was good, the dip not so much. but I'm also not a huge ginger fan.
