First Things First

Our vegetables and fruit come as fresh as can be, so please give them a quick wash before you get started.

As well as your basic cooking tools, you will need...

Baking Tray
Baking Paper
Aluminium Foil
pot

1 Prepare Ingredients

Preheat oven to 200°C. Pick dill and parsley leaves, discarding the stem. Roughly chop parsley, dill and chives. Peel and mince garlic. Slice the lemon into rounds.

2 Make Herb Butter

In a small pot over a medium heat, melt butter. Reduce the heat to low and add the herbs, minced garlic and 2 teaspoons of salt. Cook for 2 minutes. Do not let the butter brown.

3 Prepare Salmon

Pat the salmon dry. Line baking tray with enough foil to wrap the whole salmon. Line foil with piece of baking paper and place the salmon fillet skin side down on the baking paper. Place sliced lemons on the salmon and then pour herb butter over salmon fillet. Season with salt & pepper. Wrap salmon loosely in foil and bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes.

4 You Plate It!

Remove the salmon from the oven, being careful when you open the foil as the steam will be hot. Slide the salmon from the foil to a serving plate (you may want to leave it on the baking paper). Spoon over any juices from the tray and serve. Enjoy!
