1 teaspoon fresh ginger, chopped
1 clove garlic
1 tablespoon whole coriander seeds
1/4 cup honey
1/4 cup soy sauce
juice of one lemon
one stalk lemongrass
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon sesame oil
4 salmon fillets, skinned
coarse salt
freshly ground black pepper
1 whole jalapeno, seeded
Grind coriander seeds, garlic and ginger in a spice grinder or crush with a mortar and pestle until coarsely ground.
Stir together the spice mixture with honey, soy sauce, sesame oil and lemon juice in a small sauce pan until combined. Add the lemongrass stalk and the whole jalapeno. Salt and pepper to taste.
Bring to a boil and simmer until glaze has thickened to the consistency of syrup, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the stalk of lemongrass and the jalapeno. Pour a little in a cup to brush on the salmon and save the rest for serving.
Brush a little of the glaze on the salmon. Cook the fillets however you like, in a pan, on a grill, or broil.
Transfer salmon to serving plates and drizzle with the glaze and serve.
