Cooking Lab - Teriyaki Salmon Bites with Sautéed Garlic Chive Flowers (照燒鮭魚一口酥)

I love these teriyaki salmon bites. They are a great appetizer with your after-work drink and they are kid-friendly too. 

The salmon is succulent on the inside and crispy on the outside. They are so moreish and taste delicious.


給忙碌的我一個快速又好吃的下酒菜。
材料和做法都滿簡單的,香酥的炸鮭魚配上青脆的韮菜花,整體吃起來真是香氣十足。

加上一小杯的燒酒。冬天就該這樣過。

Ingredients:

- 300g fresh salmon fillet 
- 200g fresh garlic chive flowers 
- 3 tablespoon teriyaki sauce 
- 2 teaspoon cooking wine 
- 2 teaspoons light soy sauce 
- 2 cups cooking oil 
- 1 teaspoon oyster sauce 
- 100g plain flour 
- 1 egg 
- 20g seaweed flakes 
- Salt and pepper 



Instructions:

1. Clean the salmon fillet and check for fine bones.

2. Marinate the salmon fillet in light soy sauce, cooking wine, salt and pepper for at least 30 minutes in the fridge.

3. Cut the salmon into bite cubes.

4. Rub salmon bites with teriyaki sauce.

5. Dip them in egg first then lightly coat in flour.

6. Heat oil on high and gently fry them until golden.

These salmon cubes will cook fast. Be careful of splattering oil. 


7. In a separate pan, add 1 tablespoon of oil and quickly sauteed the garlic chive flowers on high heat for 3-5 minutes.

8. Season with oyster sauce, soy sauce and pepper.

9. Stir and mix well.

10. Remove quickly to retain the vibrant green colour.


11. Divide the garlic chive flowers equally into 4 portions.

12. Plate 5-6 salmon bites on each dish.

13. Garnish with chili and seaweed flakes.


   14. Serve hot with a fresh wedge of lemon.

Lemon juice will add a refreshing taste and cut the grease at the same time, unfortunately it does not shed the calories.
