Ingredients

Method

1

Lay a 750g whole skin-on fresh salmon fillet in a large glass serving dish, skin-side down.

2

In a bowl mix caster sugar, coarse rock salt, cracked black pepper, finely chopped fresh dill, a large handful finely chopped fresh mint, the finely grated zest of 1 each orange and lemon and Pimm's No 1.

3

Pat sugar/salt mixture over fish. Cover with baking parchment. Wrap dish in clingfilm, then top with a roasting tin or plate that fits inside the dish. Arrange some heavy items on top: about four tins of tomatoes are ideal.

4

Chill for 3 days; a briny liquid will run out.

5

To serve, lift fish out and wipe off the salt mixture (don't worry if some bits stay stuck). Lay skin-side down on a board. Use a sharp, long knife to cut thin slices across the grain of the salmon.

6

Serve with lemon wedges, crusty bread, cucumber Mayonnaise and a salad.
