Ingredients

For the ‘bang bang’ sauce:
  • 100 ml sriracha
  • 2 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 1 tbsp honey
  • 100 ml natural yogurt
For the salmon bites:
  • 50 g plain flour
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic granules
  • 1 tsp Ground ginger
  • Salt and pepper
  • 2 eggs lightly beaten
  • 150 g panko breadcrumbs
  • 2 Salmon fillets
To serve: (optional)
  • Toasted sesame seeds
  • Spring onions sliced
  • Red chilli sliced
For the broccoli:
  • 1 Head of broccoli
  • 2 tbsp Sesame oil
  • 1 tbsp Soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Honey
  • 1 tsp Toasted sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Start by making the sauce: put all the ingredients into a bowl and mix well.
  • Get 3 separate dishes, in one put the flour, paprika, garlic granules, ground ginger, salt and pepper and mix well. Put the eggs in another, then tip the breadcrumbs into the third bowl.
  • Remove the skin from the salmon, then cut it into bite-sized pieces, then coat the pieces in the seasoned flour, followed by the egg, then finally the breadcrumbs.
  • Heat a good amount of oil in a large frying pan over a medium- high heat, you need enough oil to come halfway up the sides of the pieces of salmon. Once the oil is hot, shallow-fry the salmon pieces until they are golden and crisp all over. Once they are done, remove them from the pan and place on a plate lined with kitchen paper to blot off excess oil.
  • Serve the crispy salmon with some sticky rice, drizzling over plenty of the bang bang sauce, then scatter with sesame seeds, spring onions and red chilli, if you like. Serve the remaining sauce on the side.
  • Preheat the oven to 200C (fan).
SESAME ROASTED BROCCOLI
  • Cut the broccoli into florets, then pop them into a roasting dish. Pour over the sesame oil, soy sauce, and honey.
  • Roast for 15 minutes.
  • Sprinkle over sesame seeds and enjoy.
