Ingredients
- Coriander: 2 tbsp roughly chopped coriander
- Vegetable Oil: 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- Red Pepper: 1/2 red pepper, deseeded and chopped
- Red Chilli: 1 red chilli (deseeded if you don't like it too hot), finely chopped
- Red Onion: 1 small red onion, chopped
- Lime: juice 1 lime, plus 1 lime cut into wedges to serve
- Egg Noodle: 4 nests medium egg noodles
- Salmon Fillet: 4 boneless, skinless salmon fillets
- Green Pepper: 1/2 green pepper, deseeded and chopped
- Salad: 4 large handfuls mixed salad leaves
- Teriyaki Sauce: 2 tbsp teriyaki sauce
- Papaya: 1 papaya, peeled and chopped into 1cm cubes
Directions
- To make the salsa, combine the papaya, onion, green and red peppers, chilli, coriander and lime juice in a bowl. Season and set aside.
- Prepare the noodles following pack instructions. Meanwhile, brush both sides of the salmon fillets with oil, then season. Heat a griddle or frying pan to medium-hot and cook the salmon for 3-4 mins on each side, then remove from the pan. (Alternatively, cook the fillets on a barbecue, and pop the lime wedges next to them, flesh-side down, for 2-3 mins.) Drain the noodles and toss with the teriyaki sauce.
- Pile the salad leaves and noodles onto plates. Top with the salmon, spoon over the salsa and serve with a lime wedge.
