Recipe of the Month for January

Marinated Salmon Salad

225g (8oz) very fresh skinned salmon fillet
mixed salad leaves
1 bunch spring onions, trimmed and chopped
1 green chilli, deseeded and chopped
50g (2oz) cucumber, peeled, deseeded and finely chopped
thinly pared zest of 1 lime
For the marinade:

grated zest and juice of  3 limes
4tbsp olive oil
2 tomatoes, skinned, pipped and diced
4tbsp chopped fresh coriander
2tsp caster sugar
salt and black pepper

Cut the salmon fillet diagonally into wafer thin slices and place them in a non metallic dish.  Mix all the ingredients for the marinade together and pour over the salmon. Cover and chill for 3 hours.  The acidity of the marinade effectively ‘cooks’ the salmon. The salmon should be pink and opaque.

Cut the pared lime zest into fine julienne strips.  Place the salad leaves on 4 individual serving plates. Arrange the salmon slices on top and sprinkle with the spring onion, chilli and cucumber. Spoon over a little of the marinade and garnish with the julienne of lime.
