Ingredients

  • 2-3 cups water (enough to cover the salmon filets)
  • 2 tablespoons loose green tea (or your favourite tea)
  • 4 green onions, chopped
  • 2 tablespoons soya sauce
  • 2 tablespoons grated ginger
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 lemon, juiced and zested
  • 2 six ounce salmon filets
  • 2 handfuls baby spinach
  • 1 cup bean sprouts

Preparation

Step 1

Bring the water to a simmer in a small sauce pot. Add the tea leaves, green onions, soya sauce, grated ginger, honey and lemon zest and juice. Simmer for a few moments. Add the salmon filets and cover. Poach the salmon for 6-8 minutes, until firm to the touch.

Fill two serving bowls with the baby spinach and bean sprouts. Lay a piece of salmon on top and ladle over some of the simmering hot tea broth.
