Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Lay the salmon, skin-side down, on a lined baking tray.
  2. Put the garlic, ginger, clementine zest and juice in a saucepan with the honey, soy sauce and cinnamon stick. Bubble over a medium-high heat for 3-5 mins until thickened and syrupy.
  3. Brush the salmon with the oil, arrange the sliced clementines on top, then pour over the clementine glaze. Bake for 12-15 mins until cooked through but still slightly pink in the centre.
  4. Transfer to a platter; drizzle over the glaze from the tray. Scatter with the herbs and spring onions.

Tip: Use this versatile clementine glaze for roast ham, pork or poultry, or pour over roasted carrots or other root veg.
