- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup water
- 1/4 cup fish sauce
- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
- 1/4 cup sliced shallots
- 1/4 cup chopped scallions
Instructions:
Step 1: Make the marinade
1. In a small bowl, mix together the sesame oil, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, minced garlic, grated ginger, salt, and pepper.
2. Place the salmon fillets in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over them. Make sure the fillets are coated evenly.
3. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and let the salmon marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes.
Step 2: Make the caramel sauce
1. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar and water over medium-high heat.
2. Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved.
3. Let the mixture come to a boil and cook for about 5 minutes, without stirring, until it turns into a deep golden color.
4. Remove the pan from the heat and carefully stir in the fish sauce and rice vinegar. The mixture will bubble and steam, so be careful.
5. Add the shallots and scallions to the pan and stir until everything is well combined.
Step 3: Cook the salmon
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place the marinated salmon fillets on it.
3. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until the salmon is fully cooked and flakes easily with a fork.
4. Remove the salmon from the oven and brush the caramel sauce over each fillet.
5. Return the salmon to the oven and broil for an additional 2-3 minutes, until the sauce is bubbly and caramelized.
Serving Suggestions:
- Serve the caramelized salmon over a bed of steamed rice and top with chopped scallions and sesame seeds.
- For a lighter option, serve the salmon on a bed of mixed greens with a drizzle of the caramel sauce as dressing.
