15 g fresh ginger, finely sliced, julienne
1 large lemon gras stem, the inner white part finely sliced
2 clove(s) garlic, finely chopped

2 tbsp lime juice
1 ½ tsp soy sauce
1 tsp fish sauce, Nýớc mắm

Method

Mix sauce ingredients together.

Make two layers of foil per piece of salmon to make it strong enough and to hold the juices.

Put the salmon into the foil pieces and place the ginger, lemon gras, shallots, chillies, coriander and lime leaves on top of the salmon.

Pour the sauce over all pieces.

Seal the foil parcels and bake in a preheated fan oven (180ºC) for about 10-15 minutes.

Hi Petra,

I tried this recipe at the weekend and it was very successful. I used kingclip instead of salmon as I am a great fan of this fish and we did it on a bbq grill. Everybody made compliments about it and I just pass them on to you.

Hi Petra,
I tried it again but could not get the fish I wanted, so I used halibut, not realizing that halibut takes only a few minutes to be cooked. So my fish turned into a mash. I learn the hard way, so it seems. Next time I´ll use a fish with firm flesh.

Now for the third time I prepared this fish and this time with salmon as in the recipe and it was the best of the three tries. Thanks again for the recipe.
