Braised salmon with tomato, cinnamon and black mustard seeds

Confusing instructions, but the final result was quite nice. A complex sauce is prepared while chunks of salmon marinade in red pepper flakes, garlic, and salt. The salmon chunks are then tossed into the sauce, and 5 minutes later you are ready to serve.

The confusing part was that many of the spice amounts were listed as "1 x 1/2 tsp", and it wasn't clear if this meant 1/2 tsp, or 1 1/2 tsp. I went with the smaller amount, and found the sauce to be pleasantly spiced.

There was a bit too much sauce for the amount of salmon, I served it with quinoa, but a crusty bread might have been better for sopping it up.

My first attempt at an Ottolenghi recipe, and I will certainly seek out more.
