Ingredients

2 serv.
  • salmon fillets2

    about 140g/5oz each

  • juice 1 lime
  • pinch chilli powder
  • ½ tsp ground cumin tsp
  • ½ tsp smoked paprika tsp
  • ½ tsp ground coriander tsp
  • pinch of soft brown sugar
  • drizzle of sunflower oil
  • steamed rice

    to serve

  • ripe avocado1

    peeled and diced

  • handful cherry tomatoes

    quartered

  • spring onions2

    sliced

  • juice 1 lime
  • splash of olive oil
  • bunch of coriander

    half roughly chopped, half picked into sprigs

Step-by-step instructions

  1. 1

    Put the salmon in a bowl, pour over the lime juice and leave the salmon to ‘cure’ for 5 mins. Meanwhile, mix all the spices together with the sugar. Lift the salmon out of the lime juice and roll in the spices so it’s completely coated.

  2. 2

    Heat grill to high. Grease a baking tray, then sit the salmon, flesh-side up, on the tray. Grill for 5 mins, until the salmon is cooked through and the edges are starting to blacken. While the salmon is cooking, gently mix all the salsa ingredients together with the roughly chopped coriander. When the fish is cooked, serve with the salsa, some rice and the coriander sprigs.
