The DM and the DS thoroughly enjoyed this tonight, though I found it a little to sweet and it was cooked to perfection in the 8 minutes in the bottom tier of my 3 tier electric steamer. The big issue I had was reducing the marinade to a syrup after 10 minutes of simmering (anything above that and there would have been a volcanic explosion) so transferred to a frypan to get the sauce over a larger surfact area but after 5 minutes still at sauce consistency so left it at that and served over the salmon and was wishing I had served plain rice instead of fried rice as it would have been nice to go over the rice and would also like to add a small chilli finely chopped to give a little zing and take away some of the sweetness that I was not so keen on. An excellent quick healthy mid week meal, thank you Boomette, made for Aussie/Kiwi Recipe Swap #62 March 2012.

Made this for supper tonight. The salmon tasted very good after marinading in this marinade. I spread the cooked down marinade sauce on the salmon and at first I didn't care for it much because of the strong ginger taste but the more I ate the better it tasted. Next time I make this I'll use less ginger. Made for Please Review My Recipe 2012.
