Steps

30 mins

1

Rinse the leeks, then finely slice and add to a pan with 1/2 tbsp butter and a dash of water on a medium-low heat. We’ll be sautéing these for 10 minutes or so while we prepare the salmon so keep the heat in check. Add a bit of water as needed if the look dry
2

Preheat the oven to 180C, and meanwhile mix 1 tsp of the puréed ginger with the soy sauce in a small bowl
3

Lay your salmon fillets in a lightly oiled baking dish and spoon over the salmon, then put in the oven for 10 minutes.
4

While the salmon is baking, mix the remaining butter, ginger, the miso paste and rice vinegar into a smooth paste
5

When the salmon is nicely cooked take it out of the oven and spoon on the miso mixture, and return it to the oven for a couple of minutes
6

Plate up the salmon on a bed of the sautéed leeks, garnish with some parsley and serve!
