This fresh and healthy teriyaki salmon with udon noodles is a delicious summer dinner with a spicy kick. Serve with spinach and pak choi.
Did everyone have a good Easter? It was so lovely having a long weekend to hang out at home.
We ate loads of delicious food, starting with a feast on Friday when we cooked lunch for two friends.
There's a fishmongers that's just opened up down the road from us so we went over on Friday morning and bought some big, fat, juicy prawns which we marinated in lemon, garlic and chilli before cooking them up on the griddle.
They were deeeelicious, I'll be sharing the recipe very soon. (Update: Get the recipe for these chilli and garlic prawns)
Anyway, what followed that was a weekend of eating and drinking. My two favourite things.
It was the kind of weekend that should probably be followed by a healthy dinner like this teriyaki salmon with udon noodles.
Will is a huge fan of udon noodles. I can always guarantee a positive response if they're included in dinner plans.
We've made a couple of other udon noodle recipes including peanut salmon and a stir fry with turkey mince both of which you should try making once you've eaten this teriyaki salmon!
