Ginger Salmon

Haven't been cooking for a while now. Can't remember when was the last post showing off my cooking. Heh.

Anyway, cooked a simple dish tonight - Ginger Salmon... together with a packet of instant pasta.

Well, the salmon turned out well, except that I think I used too much honey, so in the end, the honeyed sauce that flowed off the salmon onto the baking tray got burnt quite easily. But all in all, quite a difference from the heavily-flavoured salmon that I used to make. For this dish, you can actually taste the flavours of the salmon and the honey-mustard quite distinctively.

This is a very easy dish to make, and all the ingredients are simple and most likely already readily available at home. However, I can't be quite sure what would be good to go with this... certainly not the chives and sour cream pasta I did tonight.
