So this sweet, salty glazed salmon is healthy and melt in the mouth. Here's how to make it: 

Ingredients (for 2 servings)

• Miso paste (1 tbsp)
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp maple syrup

• 2 salmon fillets
• Vegetables of choice
• 1 tbsp rapeseed oil 
• lime or lemon 
• chilli flakes

Method

1. Make the marinade/glaze by mixing the miso, soy and maple syrup in a bowl. Be patient as it takes time to mix the miso paste in - use the back of a spoon to break it up 
2. Pop both bits of salmon in the glaze and cover it, put to the side. 
3. Chop your vegetables - thinly slice. 
4. You can use one or two pans - put a heavy base stir fry pan on a medium to high heat. Add half of the oil and let heat up. Add the vegetables and stir fry. 

How to cook the salmon: Crispy salmon skin whilst still soft and tender 

1. Once your veg is half cooked, add the other half of the oil to the pan (or a separate pan) and let heat up. 
2. Once sizzling - add the salmon to the pan skin face down. 
3. Let this sit for 2-3 minutes, turn the heat down to medium
4. Stir the veg and flip the salmon. Cook for a further 1-2 minutes. If you see white bobbles coming out of the salmon, it's starting to overcook. 
5. Take the salmon out, add a dash of soy, the lemon or lime juice and chilli flakes to the veg.
