Lapsang Souchong Garlic Chili Oil Glazed Salmon Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Coat a sheet pan with cooking spray.
• Combine the rice, 2 1/2 cups water and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt on the sheet pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, whisk the sugar, lime juice, fish sauce, chili-garlic sauce and cornstarch in a small bowl to make the glaze. Combine the sugar snaps with the oil and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a separate bowl.
• Season the salmon with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt. After the rice has cooked for 20 minutes, place the salmon, skin side down, on the sheet pan (directly on top of the rice) and brush it with about one-third of the chili glaze. Roast for 5 minutes, again brush the salmon with about one-third of the glaze and add the sugar snaps to the pan. Roast another 5 minutes and brush with the remaining glaze. Roast until the salmon is just translucent in the center and the sugar snaps are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes more.

Steps:

• Set oven control to broil. Spray cookie sheet with cooking spray. In small bowl, stir chili sauce, onions, marmalade and soy sauce.
• Place salmon, skin side down, on cookie sheet. Brush with half of chili sauce mixture. Broil 5 minutes; brush with remaining chili sauce mixture. Broil 2 minutes longer or until fish flakes easily with fork.

Steps:

• Lapsang chili oil glaze: Make a strong infusion of tea and then reduce to 1 cup. Add all the ingredients at the end of reduction to melt honey and infuse flavor. Set aside.
• Chili oil: Heat oil in a small pan to 325 degrees F. Add the garlic and fry for 3 to 5 minutes or light golden brown. Remove from heat and add the sesame oil, soy sauce, and sambal. Add the Lapsang reduction. Let cool to allow flavors to combine.
• Marinate salmon fillets in the Lapsang-chili mixture for 1 hour. Preheat a grill. Remove from the marinade and grill over medium flame for about 8 minutes each side, or until cooked to desired doneness.
• Taro Wasabe mashed purple potatoes: Peel the taro and cut into medium cubes. Put into cold water, bring to a boil and cook until taro is fork tender. Chop potatoes into medium cubes, place in pot with cold water, bring to a boil and cook until fork tender. Due to different cooking times, cook potatoes and taro separately. When they are done, drain and combine with other ingredients and mash. Add cream slowly as not to make too creamy.
• Sesame Green Beans: Toast sesame seeds in clean, dry skillet for 30 to 45 seconds on medium heat, move rapidly to avoid burning. Set aside. Pick and clean the beans. Heat sesame oil in pan, then fry the beans until semi cooked, about 45 to 60 seconds. Toss in pan to coat with oil. Sprinkle with toasted seeds.

Steps:

• Combine the oil and crushed red pepper flakes in a heavy small saucepan. Cook over low heat until a thermometer inserted into the oil registers 180 degrees F, about 5 minutes.
• Remove from heat. Cool to room temperature, about 2 hours. Transfer the oil and pepper flakes to a 4-ounce bottle. Seal the lid. Refrigerate up to 1 month.
