Method
- Whisk the lime juice with the soy, garlic, ginger and crushed chillies in a bowl; set aside half to dress the noodles later. Mix the peanut butter and 50ml boiling water into the remaining marinade. Arrange the salmon in a baking dish, leaving 2cm between each fillet, then pour over the marinade. Marinate in the fridge for at least 30 mins, or overnight.
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Bake the salmon for 10-15 mins until it’s just opaque and flakes easily when pressed.
- Meanwhile, cook the noodles to pack instructions. Drain, reserving 150ml cooking water, and return to the pan. Add the reserved dressing, cooking water and sesame oil; mix. Cover and keep warm over a very low heat, stirring occasionally so it doesn’t stick.
- Heat a large, lidded frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add half the spring onions and chilli and fry for 1 min. Add the babycorn, mangetout and Tenderstem and cook for 3-4 mins, stirring, until tender but still crisp. Stir in the spinach, cover and cook for 2 mins to wilt.
- Serve the salmon on top of the noodles and veg with any marinade from the baking dish spooned over. Top with the remaining spring onions and chilli to serve.
