recipe: SALMON W/ SESAME, MUSHROOMS AND ASIAN GREENS

You'll need to start preparing this a day before (or at least a couple of hours) to marinate the salmon.
The best thing about it is that I used no salt at all, so I'm guessing thats a good thing...

for 2 people: 2 salmon fillets boned, 1 tbs honey, 2 tbs sesame oil, 1 teaspoon szechuan seasoning, 1 tbs soy sauce, 1 cup pearl couscous, some green beans trimmed, a handfull of spinach, 4 big mushrooms sliced (better if you can find shiitake), 2 tbs oyster sauce, 1 garlic clove crushed, 2 tsp sesame oil, 1/2 lebanese cucumber sliced

1. The day before, mix the honey and sesame oil and pour it over the salmon to marinate. Season the fillets with the szechuan mixture and leave it. 2. Prepare the couscous according to the package instructions. 3. Mix the oyster sauce, crushed garlic and remaining sesame oil on a bowl and let the flavours sink in. 4. Grill the salmon on a frying pan, and drizzle over the marinate juices and the soy sauce, set aside. 5. On the same pan fry the mushrooms, green beans (previously steamed or par-boilet) and finally stir in the spinach while reducing the heat to low. Stir in the oyster sauce mixture and let the spinach wilt.

Done!
