Ingredients

  • 1½ limes
  • 1½ tbsp wasabi paste, to taste
  • 2 tsp finely grated fresh ginger
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 4 170gm skinless salmon fillets
  • Vegetable oil for the grill

Method: How to make grilled salmon in wasabi ginger sauce

1. Prepare a medium-hot grill. Too hot and the salmon will burn.

2. Cut the half lime into four wedges and set aside. Finely grate the zest from the whole lime. Cut the zested lime in half and squeeze the juice from one half into a small bowl (save the other half later).

3. In a medium bowl, combine 1 teaspoon of the lime juice with the lime zest, wasabi paste, ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Stir to combine. Add more wasabi paste if you’d like a zippier flavour; be careful as you don't want the wasabi to overwhelm the balance.

4. With your hands, spread the mixture in a thin layer over all sides of the fillets.

5. Grill salmon until crisp and slightly charred on one side, about 3 to 4 minutes. Turn and continue to grill until the salmon is just lightly cooked through, about another 3 to 6 minutes.

6. Serve the salmon topped with a dollop of wasabi paste and a lime wedge on the side.
