  • 18.40 gm vegetable oil
  • 4 (about 180g each) skinless salmon fillets
  • 4cm-piece fresh ginger, peeled, cut into matchsticks
  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced lengthways
  • 1 long fresh red chilli, halved lengthways
  • 100g (1/2 cup, firmly packed) brown sugar
  • 60ml (1/4 cup) fish sauce

  • 1 green shallot, thinly sliced diagonally
  • Steamed jasmine rice, to serve

Instructions:
  • Heat oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Sear salmon, top-side down, for 2 minutes until golden. Plate and serve.
  • Sauté ginger, garlic, and chili in the pan until fragrant. Stir in sugar, fish sauce, and lime juice until sugar dissolves. Place the salmon back in the pan, cover, and cook on low heat for 2 minutes.
