Honey and Ginger Glazed Salmon with Spicy Tiger Prawn Egg Fried Rice ( Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free)
DAIRY FREE II GLUTEN FREE II SOY FREE II NUT FREE
I love making Thai food. This is a recipe I often make, as it’s quick and I can eat it for days. The flavours of ginger, chilli and citrusy lemongrass really add a kick to this dish.
Notes on ingredients
Salmon
I only use wild salmon or wild fish when I cook. Here is a great article which explains why wild salmon is always a better option over farmed fish. Read this article.
NB: Ensure that the salmon you are using is wild, especially if you have a soy allergy, as farmed fish can be fed an unnatural diet of genetically modified soy.
Aromatics
Try to use fresh ginger, garlic, and lemongrass instead of the paste you can buy in the shops. The paste has a different flavour due to the preserving chemicals it adds. Fresh varieties will also cost a fraction of the price of jarred store-bought varieties.
Vegetables
The stir fry vegetables are just the packet ones you get from the supermarket, so choose which variety you prefer. I always like to add extra beansprouts to my stir-fries to bulk it out.
Eggs
I always choose eggs that are organic and free-range.
Soy sauce substitute
If you cannot do soy coconut aminos would be a great alternative. Find coconut aminos here.

Tips
The trick with egg fried rice is always to use day-old rice. If you have attempted to make this previously and thought it would be a better idea to use fresh rice and then been disappointed because the rice goes mushy then that’s why!
You could also make an omelette separately, rather than mixing the eggs with the rice. If you do decide to make an omelette separately to then chop up and incorporate in the rice, then would suggest adding spring onions and coriander to the egg mixture first.
As a variation, you could use any fish in this recipe try cod, seabass or haddock. You could also add any seafood to the rice a frozen mix would be perfect. Great alternatives to brown rice could be black or red rice.
Step by step
Recipe
Marinade for salmon
50 g ginger
150ml olive oil
2 tbsp honey
pinch of salt
4 salmon fillets
Egg fried rice
500g cooked brown rice
265 g stir fry vegetable pack
300 g pack beansprouts
250 g tiger prawns
35 g ginger
3 cloves garlic
2 stalks lemongrass
2 chilli ( less if you like it milder)
50 ml melted coconut oil
a few splashes of dark soy sauce
4 large organic eggs
50 g chopped coriander
Method
Heat the oven to 180 degrees, then blend the marinade ingredients and pour over the salmon then cook in the oven for 15 minutes.
Blend the ginger for the egg fried rice along with the garlic, chilli, lemongrass and coconut oil in a Nutri bullet or similar.
Add the blended aromatics ( lemongrass, chilli, ginger) to a hot wok, add the prawns and stir fry until they turn pink.
Then add the 3/4 of the vegetables ( but not the beansprouts) stir fry for a minute. Then add the eggs and rice then stir fry adding a few splashes of soy sauce. Stir fry until the rice and egg is cooked through and hot. If you are using chopped up omelette, then add that at the end.
Take the wok off the heat and add the remaining vegetables and coriander and serve with the salmon. You could garnish with chopped spring onions.
