Light the barbecue or preheat the grill to high. Mix together the maple syrup, lemon juice, soy sauce, garlic and ginger in a shallow bowl. Add the salmon and leave to marinate for 15 minutes.
Lift the salmon out of the marinade and barbecue or grill for 8–10 minutes until nicely browned and thoroughly cooked through.
Meanwhile, pour the marinade into a small pan and bring to the boil. Simmer gently for 2–3 minutes until syrupy. Strain into a small jug and pour over the salmon to serve. Enjoy with a crisp green salad.

Swap the maple syrup for clear honey if you prefer.
