Ingredients:
 2 Salmon steaks
 1 Cucumber
 100 ml(s) rice wine vinegar
 1 tsp(s) caster sugar
 1 chili (finely chopped)
 2 bundles of rice noodles
 1 half a thumb size piece of ginger (grated)
 2 tsp(s) light soy sauce
I like the contrast between hot salmon, warm noodles, and cold cucumber. You also get nice heat from the chili and sweet and sour from the pickle.

Cooking Steps:
Use a vegetable pealer to remove long thin ribbons of the cucumber. Rotate it to avoid the watery seeds in the middle. Mix enough caster sugar with the vinegar to take away the harsh acidity and add half the chili and the cucumber ribbons. Put in the fridge. Add the other half of chili to the ginger and soy and pour over the salmon, season with pepper. Leave both for 10 minutes.

Pour boiling water over the rice noodles and place the salmon, covered, in the microwave. After around 3-5 minutes the salmon and the noodles should be just cooked. Rince the noodles, put the salmon on top and the pickled cucumber on the side.

COST: Around £3 per portion

Quick mid week supper. Works very well, especially if you have a little more time to marinade the fish.
