So, my neighbor has a "fish guy". He exchanges services with various types of people, and occasionally gets fresh local fish. The local salmon is amazing. And my neighbor is a bit of a fish snob. He'll ONLY eat it fresh, so he gives us whatever he can't eat that night.
We eat some fresh and promptly freeze the rest (I'm not a fish snob).
Our neighbor gave us some salmon last night. Yum!
Glazed Salmon
1 salmon fillet
juice of 1 lemon
soy sauce
mustard
honey
I'm not estimating the cost, because it will depend on what you pay for salmon. And mine was free.
Mix lemon juice, soy sauce, mustard, honey in a bowl.
Saute salmon in a skillet, 5 mins each side (depends on how thick the salmon is). Add the glaze, cook until thick. I always have to cook it covered for a few minutes to cook it through.
Sweet and Sour Red Cabbage
This simple recipe originated here. I adjusted it a bit.
1/2 head red cabbage, chopped: 0.75
1 T olive oil: 0.11
1/2 onion, diced: 0.20
1.5 T sugar: 0.05
2 T balsamic vinegar: 0.11
salt and pepper
Total: $1.22 for two generous servings.
Saute onion in oil until golden brown. Add cabbage, increase to medium-high heat, cook 5 min. Add salt, pepper, sugar, and vinegar, saute 5 min. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for 20-30 min.
We had Salmon (Asian), Red cabbage (German), and Middle Eastern flat bread.
