Salmon With Pak Choi, Mushrooms and Noodles

Another Bloke classic. Very simple but very tasty.

Season two skinless salmon fillets with sea salt and ground black pepper and drizzle with a little olive oil. Grill them under a hot grill for about 3 minutes on each side.

Meanwhile, roughly chop a couple of handfuls of mushrooms, about 3 cloves of garlic, a couple of heads of pak choi and one red chilli.

Get a big pan of salted water on the boil and add a couple of sheets of noodles. I use Sharwood's Medium Egg Noodles. They'll take 4 minutes to cook.

Heat some olive oil in a large frying pan and, when hot, add the mushrooms. Fry for about a minute then add the garlic, pak choi and chilli. Season with a good dose of ground black pepper. Don't add any salt here because the soy that you'll add shortly will be salty enough.

Give the frying pan a good toss and gently tease the noodles with a pair of tongs to separate them.

Add a couple of good glugs of soy sauce to the frying pan and bubble to thicken.

Drain the noodles, tip them into the frying pan and give it all a good toss.

Divide the noodles between two bowls and top each with a salmon fillet.

As those meerkats say on that advert: Simples!
