Preheat the grill (broiler) to high.

Place the salmon fillets, skin-side up on a grill tray lined with foil.

Place under the grill for 2 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic salt, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and light brown sugar.

Turn the salmon over and drizzle the glaze over the salmon (don’t worry about the sauce pooling on the tray).

Place under the grill (broiler) and cook for a further 4-6 minutes, basting once or twice until just cooked.

Remove the tray from the grill and cover with foil to rest while you make the noodles.

For the Salmon:

Heat the 1 tbsp sesame oil and 1 tbsp sunflower oil in a wok or large frying pan over a high heat.

Add the sliced onion, sliced bell pepper, and sliced carrot and fry for 2 minutes, moving everything with spatula regularly.

Add the sliced cabbage, sliced chillies, and minced garlic. Stir fry for one minute.

Add the noodles and toss everything together for 2 minutes. (I find it&#039;s easier to use a set of tongs for this).

Add the light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, chilli sauce, tomato ketchup, the zest and juice of half a lime, white pepper, and chopped spring onions.

Toss together, heating for a further 2-3 minutes until hot throughout.

For the Noodles:

Divide the noodles between 4 plates or bowls and top each with a piece of salmon. Drizzle over any remaining sauce from the salmon tray if there&#39;s any left on there.

Serve topped with wedges of lime and a sprinkling of chopped spring onions, and sesame seeds.

Soft, fall-apart salmon with a soy sauce and brown sugar glaze, nestled on a bed of Asian-style noodles.

It just needs to be eaten for dinner, and then for lunch the next day and for a bit of Nigella-style fridge snacking in between. The noodles are sweet, salty and just a little spicy.  The perfect flavour combination!

✎ NOTES
*TIP 1: Using dried noodles instead of fresh
Cook the noodles as per the pack instructions. Once they're soft, drain the noodles and run them under cold water until they're completely cool. This stops the noodles sticking together whilst you're preparing the rest of the meal. Leave the noodles in the strainer until you're ready to use them.
