FAQ

What does black garlic add to pan-fried salmon?

Black garlic adds a rich, savoury umami flavour with subtle sweetness and notes of balsamic and tamarind. In this recipe, Neudorf Black Garlic Puree combines with soy sauce and Black Garlic Honey to create a delicious sauce that complements the salmon without overpowering it. Fresh coriander adds a bright, herbal finish.

Can I make this salmon recipe without fresh coriander?

Absolutely! Fresh parsley is a good alternative if you're not a fan of coriander. You can also use finely sliced spring onions for a fresh, mild onion flavour. While coriander gives this recipe its distinctive finish, the black garlic sauce is delicious with any of these options.

Pan-Fried Salmon with Coriander & Black Garlic

Ingredients

  • 2 salmon fillets (approximately 150–180g each)
  • 2 tbsp fresh coriander, chopped
  • 2 tbsp soy sauce
  • 1 tbsp Neudorf Black Garlic Honey
  • ½ tsp Neudorf Black Garlic Puree
  • 1 tbsp Neudorf Black Garlic Olive Oil
  • A pinch of Neudorf Black Garlic Everyday Seasoning, to taste

Directions

  1. Mix the sauce. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, Neudorf Black Garlic Honey and Black Garlic Puree until smooth. Stir through half the fresh herbs.

  2. Prep the salmon. Pat the salmon fillets dry with a paper towel and sprinkle lightly with Neudorf Black Garlic Everyday Seasoning.

  3. Heat the pan. Add the Black Garlic Olive Oil to a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat.

  4. Sear. Place the fillets skin-side down (if using skin-on salmon) and cook for 3-4 minutes, until the skin is golden and crisp. Turn carefully and cook for another 2–4 minutes, depending on thickness.

  5. Add the sauce. Reduce the heat to low and pour the black garlic honey mixture into the pan. Gently spoon the bubbling glaze over the salmon for 1–2 minutes, until glossy and slightly thickened. Avoid overheating, as the honey can burn.

  6. Garnish. Remove the salmon from the pan. Top with the remaining fresh coriander and spoon any remaining sauce over the salmon.
