My review
Spicy Garlic Salmon
Natalie
"This is an unbelievably delicious and quick salmon recipe. You can play around with the ingredients: add fresh basil leaves instead of the chili or balsamic instead of the lemon juice. The wholegrain mustard is essential. You are guaranteed to love this one! Serve with a green salad, and enjoy!"

This was good. I did not pre-heat the oven and put the fish in for 25 min, it was a bit to long, leaving the fish dry. I will make again but start checking around 18-20 min.

Unfortunately the flavour is not balanced. Mustard makes it too acidic and in general it is a sharp mix of asian and western flavours which does not work. I love salmon with honey, mustard and b...

I love this salmon recipe. But I had to double most of the ingredients since the original recipe was little bland and not spicy enough.

By far the BEST and juiciest salmon ever! I used red pepper flakes instead and added sliced tomatoes on the bottom, the last 3 mins of cooking I broiled it to brown it

This was great. I reduced the pepper (I'm a wimp) and used spicy mustard instead of regular. I'll definitely make this one again. Thanks for the great recipe!
