ingredients
- 1⁄2 cup orange juice, freshly squeezed (125ml)
- 1⁄3 cup maple syrup (80ml)
- 2 teaspoons ginger, freshly grated
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 4 (180 g) salmon fillets, without skin
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 150 g baby spinach leaves
directions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Line a baking tray with baking paper.
- Place orange juice, maple syrup, ginger and garlic in a small pan over medium heat, and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 8 minutes or until slightly reduced and syrupy.
- Place salmon on prepared tray. Use half the maple glaze to brush over salmon fillets.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, until cooked to your liking, brushing salmon with reserved glaze halfway through cooking.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frypan over high heat. Add the baby spinach leaves and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes, until just wilted. Season to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- To serve, divide the wilted spinach and salmon fillets among four serving plates, and drizzle salmon fillets with any remaining reserved glaze.

My fiance & I have lived in Melbourne all our lives and we love it, it's so diverse & exciting.
We went on a world trip in '04-'05 including the US, UK, France, Italy, Malta, Germany, The Netherlands, Egypt, India & Japan. It was awesome, but great to get home & relax too. :)
The link on this page will take you to my YouTube channel which has slide-show videos of my pics, featuring some amazing street art around Melbourne.
I think it's rude to leave 1 star ratings! To me it's like eating someones cooking then saying "ERGH!" to their face!! :D So we don't give 1 star ratings. If we really don't like something, then it's no stars & a description of why it didn't live up to our expectations, or we may just remove the recipe from our cookbook & leave it at that.
We like cross-promoting recipes in our reviews, to share combinations that work, recipes that inspire & methods people may not have thought of.
We can't help but put something of ourselves into each recipe we try
