Lime marinated salmon with papaya

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 500 gram pie fresh salmon fillet; skinned
1 tablespoon Fresh dill; chopped
Salt and freshly ground pepper
1 Papaya
Rocket leaves or watercress
1 Shallot; finely chopped
Zest and juice of 1 lime
1 tablespoon Good-quality olive oil
1 Fresh green chilli; finely chopped

Directions

MARINADE

Remove any bones from the salmon and slice on the diagonal into ¼ inch thick slices. Lay the slices in a non-corrosive dish.

Mix the marinade ingredients with half the dill, pour over the fish and refrigerate for 2 hours, giving an occasional stir. It is ready as soon as it looks 'cooked' - opaque rather than glossy. (If the fish is really finely sliced, as little as 30 minutes will do, if thickly sliced it can take more than 2 hours).

When the fish is ready, season with salt and pepper.

Peel the papaya, remove the seeds and slice the flesh lengthways into pieces slightly thicker than the salmon.

To serve: Arrange the salmon and papaya on a serving plate in overlapping slices. Spoon the remaining chopped dill. Garnish with the rocket or watercress.
