Takeaways. A nightmare for those with allergies and auto immune conditions like me.
But, you can just as easily make it at home…and it doesn’t take forever to prep!
My free from sticky salmon with egg fried rice and Chinese stir-fried vegetables was a hit – why not try it for yourself?
Sticky Salmon
Ingredients:
Tamari (2 tbsp)
Thumb size piece of ginger – grated
half 1 red chilli
half 1 green chilli
Chinese 5 Spice (1 tsp)
Clear Honey -(1 tbsp)
Garlic cloves, minced (2 cloves)
2 Salmon fillets
Method:
In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients with a fork to ensure they are all combined.
Make small tinfoil parcels for your salmon fillets, and marinate the fillets for at least 30 mins in the fridge.
Bake in the oven for 25 mins (in the parcel)
The last 5 mins, uncover so the salmon can caramelise.
Egg Fried Rice
Ingredients:
Cold precooked long grain white rice (300g)
Generous glug if vegetable oil
3 spring onions, sliced
half 1 white onion
Fresh ground pepper to taste
Tamari (1 tsp)
3 eggs whisked
2 handfuls of frozen peas (defrosted)
Method:
Heat the oil in a wok until smoking hot
Quickly fry the onion and spring onions, no more than 1 minute
Add the pre cooked rice and coat with the oil
Push the rice to one side, and add the egg – whisk with a chopstick or end of a wooden spoon (works just as well) – mix in with the rest of the rice and add the defrosted peas
Add pepper to taste and mix in the tamari before serving.
Chinese Stir Fried Vegetables
Ingredients:
2 Bok Choi
Half Broccoli (pre cooked for 4 mins)
small piece of ginger grated
2 garlic cloves
vegetable oil to coat pan
tamari (a few drops)
half red chili chopped finely
half green chili chopped finely
Method:
Heat the oil in a wok until smoking hot
add the ginger, garlic and chopped chili’s
add your Bok Choi and cook in the oil for 6 mins until the stalks are almost transparent
add the broccoli and the tamari
and Voila….plate up and it’s ready to devour.
No preservatives, no monosotium glutomate (MSG), totally gluten free and yummy for those days when you crave a takeaway but want to be good.
