SALMON FILLETS MARINATED IN WATERMELON JUICE
Ingredients
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 4 tablespoons sake
• 4 tablespoons watermelon juice
• pinch of freshly grated ginger
• 1 pound 2 ounces salmon fillets, skinned
• 2 tablespoons sunflower oil
• 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 1/4 watermelon, peeled, seeded, and cubed
Directions
Combine the soy sauce, sake, watermelon juice, and ginger a large non-metal dish, add the salmon fillets, turning to coat, and marinate for at least 2 hours in the refrigerator.
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
Pour the oil into an ovenproof baking dish. Drain the salmon fillets, discarding the marinade, add the fillets to the baking dish in a single layer, and sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Bake for about 7 minutes, until the flesh flakes easily.
Transfer to a warm serving dish, garnish with the watermelon, and serve.
Note: To cook the salmon on a barbecue, brush both sides with oil. To make watermelon juice, process chunks of watermelon and strain.
